A wealthy couple have been accused of keeping an Indonesian woman as a near-slave, trapping her at their Hamptons home and forcing her to endure harsh working conditions.
Rose and Lawrence Halsey, of Water Mill, are being sued by Ni Ketut Sulastri, from Bali, for allegedly forcing her to live a life of long working hours with poor pay between 2005 and 2008.
