The suspects also threatened the victim with deportation and other consequences for her family abroad.

An investigation into the incident began in 2016, and the Delosreyes subsequently fled the country, according to police.

Investigators recently learned Maria Delosreyes had since returned to the U.S. and police were able to secure a warrant for her arrest. She was taken into custody without incident.

Ricardo Delosreyes remains outstanding, and investigators believe he is in the Philippines.

Anyone with information about this case is asked to contact the San Bruno Police Department at (650) 616-7100.
