Former tennis pro Jean-Claude Toviave  'trafficked four children from Togo to the U.S. and forced them to work as slaves in his Michigan home or face "savage" beatings and starvation'. Toviave was sentenced Monday to more than 11 years in federal prison after a jury convicted him in October on four counts of forced labor. He previously pleaded guilty to fraud and misuse of visas, mail fraud and harboring aliens.

The 44-year-old former tennis pro faked immigration papers from Africa for some of the children who were in middle school and brought them to Michigan where he forced them to cook and clean while starving and beating them with toilet plungers, broomsticks and electrical cords.
