A Texas couple "enslaved" a nanny by repeatedly abusing her and making her work 20 hours a day without pay, authorities said.

Chudy and Sandra Nsobundu of the Houston area forced the nanny to only drink milk left in bowls that the children had used for cereal. She was also denied hot showers, the complaint said.

The caretaker, a Nigerian woman, was also forced to sleep on the floor.

The 38-year-old nanny, who was not identified, said she was promised $100 per month but has never been paid in her two years working for the Nsobundus in their Katy home and caring for their five children.
