Two men are in custody for the alleged crimes.
A missing Los Angeles teenager was sexually assaulted, kept in a metal box and forced to process marijuana for her two captors, according to a federal criminal complaint filed this week.
Investigators believe the girl was living on the streets of Hollywood when she came in contact with one of the suspects, who then brought her to Northern California, according to the Los Angeles Times.
