Police say four men raped a 9-year-old girl while her mom smoked meth in another room.

The Uintah County Sheriff's Office said the victim and her mother were spending Easter weekend at a friend's home at the time of the attack. Deputies say the girl was asleep on a sofa when the mother went to smoke meth in the home's garage.

Four men remained in the room with the girl, according to deputies: 36-year-old Larson RonDeau, 20-year-old Josiah RonDeau, 29-year-old Jerry Flatlip and 26-year-old Randall Flatlip.

The girl's mother allegedly told investigators that when she returned, she found the girl visibly upset with her dress ‘pulled up past her waist’.

All four suspects were booked into jail on charges of first degree felony rape and first degree felony sodomy on a child.

Police say the girl has been placed in state custody. It is unclear if the girl's mother will face any charges.
