A couple has been jailed for keeping a young woman as a sex slave, forcing her into prostitution and torturing her with bleach, nails and burning hot items.

Aldair Hodza, 36, and Laura Sorensen, 31, were sentenced to more than 40 years behind bars after luring their 20-year-old victim into their motorhome and abusing her for 18 days.

During her time in captivity, the victim had nails driven into her feet, bleach poured into her wounds and heated keys and scissors burned into her skin.

She was treated like an animal and dragged by a lead down a gravel path,court documents show.

"She may never be able to have a normal relationship because of the unusual and rare level of depravity in this case," U.S. District Judge Henry Hudson said.

"Some of the things you did to this young lady are so horrifying you cannot capture it in words."
