3 now facing charges in Md. sex-trafficking case

Published



A third person has been charged in a Maryland sex-trafficking ring that was discovered when police spotted in an online classified ad and saw a sexually explicit photograph of a missing 15-year-old girl.

A federal grand jury in Greenbelt indicted James M. Davis in late February, making him the third person charged in the case. Prosecutors say in court documents that he and two others pimped the 15-year-old girl for sex and provided drugs to prostitutes. Another man pleaded guilty earlier this year, and charges are still pending against a woman.
