NEW LONDON, Conn. (AP) A Norwich woman is accused of helping force an Albany, New York, teen into prostitution in Connecticut.

Brittany White is accused of two counts of promoting prostitution and faces up to 40 years in prison if convicted at a trial.

The Bulletin reports that White took the 17-year-old girl to Mohegan Sun twice for the purpose of meeting men for sex.

A neighbor told police she saw the girl outside White's house. Police say the youngster was crying and told the neighbor she had been sexually assaulted. The girl told the neighbor she could not use a cellphone, leave the house or use her Facebook page.

White is free on $100,000 bail.

A message was not immediately returned Wednesday morning and it was not known if White is represented by a lawyer.
