A woman embroiled in an alleged sex slave ring says she told police two years ago that the group leader - a self-proclaimed kinky sex overlord - was allegedly grooming teenage girls.
James Robert Davis, 40, was arrested after the Australian Federal Police raided his property in Armidale in northern New South Wales last Thursday afternoon.
Police allege he was living with six women who had signed slavery contracts and were in his possession at the sprawling rural estate he called The House of Cadifor .
The woman, who cannot be identified because she was 16 at the time of involvement, claimed on Wednesday that she met with officers at Blacktown Police Station in 2019, but was too distraught to give a statement.
