According to Kings County Chief Deputy District Attorney Patrick Hart, the investigation began in 1998, after a man took his two teenage daughters to a curandero named Fernando Magdalano Flores, hoping to restore the younger daughter's virginity. Flores allegedly used elaborate means to seduce his victims. He reportedly placed eggs on the girls' stomachs, and told them that if the eggs were heavy, there were evil spirits in their bodies. These spirits could be released, he allegedly said, only if the girls went into another room, stripped off their clothing and allowed him to have sex with them.

Occasionally, Flores would not have sex with his victims, said authorities, but would call in a surrogate curandero, his friend Jose Angel Carranza Ojeda. "Flores kind of set him up with the girl," Hart told the Fresno Bee. "He would tell her he was busy. But he had this other guy who would take over for the day, and then Ojeda would have sex with her."

Local authorities arrested Flores Nov. 1, and last week he was reunited in jail with his horny pal, Ojeda. Both are being held on multiple charges of rape and unlawful sexual intercourse. If convicted, they face several years in prison.

The Kings County Sheriff's Department now receives calls daily from women claiming to have been raped by Flores. "We've even had phone calls come in from out of state regarding this case," said Senior Deputy Tom Wilcox. "We're going to continue investigating every call we get."
