The beauty who allegedly lured him in, 22-year-old Valerie Rosario, is now charged with kidnapping and attempted murder due to horrible scheme, which was revealed in court last week.

In addition to the girl, three men were waiting for him.

Prosecutors allege a Lower East Side scammer allegedly coaxed a "total stranger" into visiting an address on Marble Hill Avenue in the Bronx on February 7 after they met on Instagram.

He arrived at about one in the morning - and then the perverse torture session began, according to the criminal complaint.

В the apartment was broken into three men, one of whom beat the victim with a gun, according to the court document.

Rosario and associates then allegedly stripped the victim, "put him in a bath, doused him with inflammable substances and burned him with flames" all over his body, the indictment says.

They also tortured him with a knife, stabbing him "on his legs, back and body". "After several hours of torture," the kidnappers moved their victim to another location, Assistant District Attorney Andrew Kluger said at Rosario's March 10 arraignment in Criminal Court in Manhattan.

The victim's brother saw him being tortured for a ransom.

Later in the afternoon, the man's brother received a terrible FaceTime call. He saw his brother being stabbed to death by one of the masked kidnappers, demanding a ransom, the complaint alleges.

“Give us a hundred thousand dollars or we will kill him,” the kidnappers told his brother.

The police were able to track down one of the alleged accomplices, Javier Vargas, in Queens, where he was sitting in a van with a knife. The victim was found lying in the back of the van, "unconscious, wrapped in a blanket with tape over her mouth."

He was "barely breathing," Kluger said.

According to the complaint, the victim was treated in hospital due to multiple burns and stab wounds to his face, body, back and legs.

Fraud lawyer asks for release on bail

Kluger demanded that Valerie Rosario be held in custody without right liberation on bail, noting that she was accused of kidnapping a "complete stranger" and allegedly "tortured him for 24 hours."

Lawyer Raymond Loving asked to release his client on bail, noting that Rosario lives with his mother and brother and works full-time in a dental office.

Judge Soma Sayed cited the seriousness of the allegations when she sent Rosario into custody.

"Rosario denies all charges that have been leveled against her," Loving said in a March 14 statement.

Both Vargas and another of the alleged kidnappers were also taken into custody after being arrested and charged last week.
