LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Two actors who appeared on "America's Most Wanted" were arrested on charges of having sex with a 14-year-old girl living at a shelter for abused children.

The alleged acts occurred in January after a film crew finished shooting in an alley next to the Children of the Night shelter.

Cristian Saliadarre, 28, surrendered to police Wednesday and Anthony Alvarez, 27, was arrested two weeks ago.

Both pleaded innocent to charges of sodomy and oral copulation with a person under 16, said Deputy District Attorney Melinda Murray. If convicted, the men face up to three years and eight months in prison.

Authorities said one of the men climbed through a window at the shelter, which helps sexually abused teens and former prostitutes, and had sex with the girl in her dormitory room. She later climbed out of the window and had sex with the other man in the alley, authorities said.

Defense attorneys said their clients did not know the girl was 14.

"My client is innocent," said Alvarez's lawyer, Gilbert Moret. "The girl in question ... misled my client into believing she was older."

The girl, now 15, said told the Los Angeles Times that she had consensual sex with both men.

A statement released by Fox Television, which distributes "America's Most Wanted," said the alleged incidents occurred after filming had ended and the crew and actors had gone home. The segment filmed that night won't air.

Saliadarre's attorney, Sammy Weiss, said his client appeared regularly on the show.

Nevitt Greene, the show's production manager, said the men had been recommended by a Los Angeles casting agency and doubted that either had worked on the show more than once.
