Overview

• David Boyd, 64, has been charged with repeated sexual assault, child trafficking, false imprisonment, and physical abuse of two sisters over nearly a decade.
• The abuse reportedly began in 2015, when the older sister was five, and continued until 2022; the younger sister’s abuse spanned 2020 to 2024.
• Authorities allege Boyd confined one victim in his basement, chaining her to a pipe, giving her only bread and puddle water, and trafficking her to multiple men for sex.
• A January report from a foster parent to Child Protective Services prompted a months-long investigation, culminating in Boyd’s arrest on April 26 and the discovery of knives, chains, and graphic evidence in his home.
• Boyd denies the allegations, claiming the victims were jealous of his relationship with his daughter, as he remains in custody on $100,000 bond ahead of his May 7 preliminary hearing.
