RANCHO CUCAMONGA, Calif. — Adult performer Mercedes Carrera and adult producer Daemon Cins were arrested Friday on suspicion of committing sexual acts with a young girl.
Carrera and Cins were charged with eight felony counts each of sexually abusing a child under the age of 10. They also face a count of possession of a controlled substance, methamphetamine, while armed with several handgun, according to the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department.
