Raymorris Asencio, 32, of Hattiesburg, Mississippi, was sentenced Friday to 30 years in prison after being convicted on federal charges of human trafficking and transporting a minor across state lines to engage in prostitution. Asencio and an accomplice, 18-year-old Briana Sparkman, were arrested in 2017 after authorities got a tip from an alert citizen:

During [a May 2017 hearing for Sparkman], Christopher Berthay, an agent with the FBI Task Force testified about details in the case.
He stated authorities became aware of the case when a lady at a nail salon in Oxford called police about three people, a white female, a black female and an older black male, in early February.
“She believed the older male was a pimp in some way,” said Berthay. “She said he used aggressive language to the girls and talked about making money in Oxford.”
Berthay said the lady was curious, and looked up missing children on her phone from Mississippi.
“She ended up discovering that the white female, was a missing child from Waveland, Mississippi,” said Berthay.
Within 48 hours of that phone call, the trio was located at a hotel in Baton Rouge, where they were questioned and released by local authorities.
The white female, was later identified at a 16-year-old runaway that had been in and out of foster care that was first picked up by Asencio walking along the highway according to Berthay.
“He said he knew a way for them to make money and he would give her a place to stay,” said Berthay.
Berthay said the victim was taken to hotels in Oxford and Grenada, and backpage ads were setup advertising sex for money.
“Hundreds of pages were advertising sex for money,” said Berthay.
Those pages were linked to Sparkman, according to testimony.
Berthay testified that Asencio would provide the transportation to the hotels across the state, and he would leave Sparkman and the victim at the hotels.
“Sparkman would arrange the price and dates…, she taught the victim how to act and how to take the money,” said Berthay. “She (Sparkman) would wait in the bathroom while the sexual acts occurred.” . . .

Feminists have not taken notice of this crime, for some reason.

Perhaps it’s the same reason feminists did not mention the sex trafficking convictions of Abdul Bangura Jr. and Christian Hood, or the sex trafficking arrest of Michael Quinones, or Timothy Bernard White, or the warrant for fugitive sex trafficker Ramon Raudel Campos Murillo.

Maybe it’s “intersectionality.”

Two Men Sentenced to Federal Prison for Sex Trafficking of ‘Fun Size’ Girl, 15

Posted on | July 29, 2018 | 1 Comment

Abdul Bangura Jr. (left) and Christian Hood (right) were sentenced to prison.

Recent news from the Department of Justice:

A Virginia man was sentenced [July 20] to 186 months in prison and 10 years of supervised release for multiple crimes related to the prostitution and exploitation of a 15-year-old minor. Assistant Attorney General Brian A. Benczkowski of the Justice Department’s Criminal Division, U.S. Attorney G. Zachary Terwilliger of the Eastern District of Virginia, and Assistant Director in Charge Nancy McNamara of the FBI’s Washington Field Office made the announcement after the sentence was handed down by U.S. District Judge Anthony J. Trenga of the Eastern District of Virginia.
Abdul Karim Bangura Jr. aka “AJ”, 22, of Triangle, Virginia pleaded guilty in August 2017 to all counts of an indictment charging him with sex trafficking of a minor, conspiracy to engage in sex trafficking of a minor, interstate transportation of a minor for the purposes of prostitution, and production of child pornography.
According to admissions made in connection with his plea, Bangura and his co-defendant Christian Hood conspired to recruit a 15-year-old girl to work as a prostitute and to advertise her prostitution services on Backpage[dot]com. Bangura also transported the minor to hotels in Virginia, Maryland, and Washington, D.C. for prostitution dates, and he took a portion of the money she made from commercial sex customers. Bangura also used a phone to record a video of himself having sex with the minor. In August 2017, Hood was convicted at trial of sex trafficking and conspiracy to engage in sex trafficking of this same minor.

The Washington Post covered Hood’s trial last year:

The teen took the witness stand Wednesday in federal court in Alexandria. Shaking at times, she described being prostituted around the Washington area by two brothers she met at a Virginia motel.
Identified only as Danielle H. to protect her identity, the now-16-year-old testified that one of the brothers, Christian Hood, posted ads for her on the website Backpage earlier this year. His half brother Abdul Bangura was her boyfriend and her pimp, she said. . . .
The first time [she met Hood], Danielle testified, was in February when she was living in an Econolodge Inn in Dumfries, Va., with her aunt. . . .
According to court documents, Hood promised her “money and progress” and asked her to send him photos he could post on Backpage.
In her Backpage ads, the 4-foot-8-inch Danielle was advertised as “fun size” and “unforgettable.”
“This is a case about how an adult man exploited a vulnerable 15-year-old girl,” Assistant U.S. Attorney Kyle P. Reynolds said in his opening statement. Danielle, he said, was “naive” and “immature.”
Bangura admitted that he would act as “security” for Danielle, driving her to motels, checking in on her during paid dates, providing her with condoms and taking a portion of the money she earned. At night, they slept together.
“I’m really starting to catch some feelings,” she said in one text conversation. “I may not seem like the girl for you, but I am.” . . .
She is pregnant with his child, according to court documents.
Prosecutors said that Hood was involved in prostituting four other people on Backpage. He allegedly sent a text message in March asking someone named “Peach” for help finding more women: “ask the homies out there if they know any freaks that’s trynna work on bp I’ll show you how to make the ads n all that.” . . .
Danielle said she had previously been prostituted on Backpage when she was 14, by another pimp named T.J. According to the testimony of FBI agent Alix Skelton, Danielle’s mother also was involved.

Feminists haven’t mentioned this story, for some reason.

Police Make Sex Trafficking Arrest

Posted on | July 29, 2018 | Comments Off on Police Make Sex Trafficking Arrest

 

Recent news from Milford, Connecticut:

Two Rhode Island residents facing charges related to human trafficking and prostitution were released on bail Friday in Milford District Court.
Michael Quinones, 29, of 155 Cranston St., Providence, was charged with deriving support from prostitution, conspiracy to commit a crime and trafficking a person for sexual servitude, according to the criminal docket. He was released on $500 cash bail, plus a $150 counsel fee.
His accomplice, Emilie Camacho-Gomez, 29, of 152 Bordan St., Woonsocket, was charged with sexual conduct for a fee and conspiracy to commit a crime. She was released without bail on terms of personal recognizance.
Assistant District Attorney Robert Shea asked for Quinones’ bail to be raised to $5,000 cash plus the $150 counsel fee, but Judge Robert Calagione declined.
According to the statement of facts in support of the application for criminal complaint, at 10:05 p.m. Monday, Milford police officers Elias Giokas and Kevin O’Loughlin were traveling down Winter Street when they spotted a blue 1999 GMC Savana van with Rhode Island license plates parked neared Winter Street and Granite Street.
After briefly observing the driver, Quinones, at a stop sign, the officers say they observed a woman, Camacho-Gomez, exiting a residence on Granite Street and entering the vehicle. Camacho-Gomez was spotted earlier in the evening, at about 6:24 p.m., exiting the vehicle and entering a residence on Jefferson Street, near the home of a known heroin user.
Quinones was pulled over after the officers noticed a rear brake light malfunction when the vehicle drove away. While talking with Quinones about his whereabouts that evening, O’Loughlin noticed a text conversation open on Quinones’ cellphone that allegedly discussed sexual services for money.
During this time, Giokas was standing on the passenger side of the vehicle when he saw Camacho-Gomez, who was sitting in the front seat, make a move to the back of the van and grab a bag. This prompted Giokas to open the passenger door and order both suspects out of the vehicle. The suspects were separated from each other.
It was then through Officer Joseph Francesconi, who Giokas radioed in for and who speaks Spanish, that officers learned that Camacho-Gomez was performing sexual services, after she initially stated that she was just riding with her cousin, Quinones. Quinones had made a similar claim.
“I am prostituting and need money for my children,” Camacho-Gomez allegedly said.
In searching the van, O’Loughlin found $1,188 in the middle console beside the driver’s seat. Giokas observed a purse that was filled with condoms, lube, baby wipes, anti-septic spray and $473 in cash on the passenger’s seat.
When asked about what job he had, Quinones allegedly responded, “I don’t have a job.” When asked where he got the money, he claimed it was from his bank account.
Detective Michael Mastroianni later arrived to assist and asked to check the cellphones that Quinones had that were ringing throughout the stop. Giokas and Francesoni observed messages both in English and Spanish. In one conversation were pictures of Camacho-Gomez.
“Do you want the service,” “15 minutes” and “Colombian” were written in messages underneath the pictures.
Officers then determined that Camacho-Gomez conspired with Quinones to perform sexual services for a fee and that Quinones was “deriving financial support from a known prostitute,” according to the statement.
It was also determined that Quinones would use his van to take Camacho-Gomez to clients as a way of engaging in “commercial sexual activity,” the statement said.

Feminists haven’t noticed this story, for some reason.

Suspect Charged With Trafficking Girl, 17

Posted on | July 29, 2018 | 1 Comment

 

Recent news from Florida:

A man suspected of selling sex with an underage runaway was arrested on human trafficking charges after the girl’s rescue in May, authorities said Thursday.
State Attorney Aramis Ayala, joined by Ron Stucker, the director of the Metropolitan Bureau of Investigation, announced the arrest of Timothy Bernard White, 22, on charges including human trafficking of a child under 18.
“In this case, we were able recover and rescue a 17-year-old juvenile who was being trafficked here in Orlando,” Stucker said,
Officials say White met the girl over social media while the child was living in a group home in Tampa. Authorities say she ran away and met White at a Central Florida motel.
The Osceola County Sheriff’s Office became aware of the girl’s location and told agents with the MBI, a multi-jurisdictional law-enforcement agency that often deals with vice and organized crime. Authorities rescued the girl at the Orlando Metropolitan Resort, just off International Drive on May 31.
Authorities say White posted the girl’s pictures on various websites advertising sex and took the proceeds. Officials were able to identify Christopher David Jackson, 34, and Steven Ramos, 40, as two men they say responded to the postings.
“Both of them … went to the hotel and each independently had sex with this minor,” Stucker said.
Stucker said both men claimed to not know the child was underage. Under state law, alleged perpetrators do not need to know the victim’s age to be charged with human trafficking of a child.
“If you engage in prostitution, you will be prosecuted,” Ayala said. “If you are engaging in prostitution of underage children, you will be tried as a human trafficker and hopefully sentenced to the rest of your life in prison.”
Human trafficking continues to plague Central Florida. Orlando ranks third in the nation for reports of human trafficking, a positition that can be attributed to its place as a tourism hot-spot. The MBI has received more than 100 tips concerning human trafficking this year, Stucker said.
White faces charges including human trafficking, transporting for the purpose of prostitution and deriving support from the proceeds of prostitution. Jackson and Ramos face charges of human trafficking and unlawful sexual activity with a minor.

Feminists have ignored this story, for some reason.

ICE Seeks Fugitive Sex Trafficker

Posted on | July 29, 2018 | Comments Off on ICE Seeks Fugitive Sex Trafficker

 

A recent press release:

A documented associate of the brutal international gang MS-13 is at-large and wanted for his role in operating an interstate prostitution ring, which also included the trafficking of a known minor.
Ramon Raudel Campos Murillo, a native of Mexico, who sometimes also goes by Raudel or the alias “Chilango,” is charged with transporting a minor across state lines for prostitution in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia.
Court documents relevant to the fugitive’s known co-conspirators and associates state that for approximately three years between 2009 and 2012, Campos Murillo managed the operation of an interstate prostitution ring that trafficked multiple women and a known minor across state lines to engage in commercial sex acts. Many of these women were foreign nationals, brought in from all along the eastern seaboard from New York to Virginia. Once they had arrived at the Greyhound bus station in Washington, D.C., they were transported to an apartment in Riverdale, Maryland maintained by the enterprise as a brothel. This illicit operation prostituted more than 100 different women, and operated in multiple locations to include Manassas, Woodbridge, Falls Church, Fairfax, Alexandria, Virginia Beach, Norfolk, Newport News, Baltimore and Delaware. Campos Murillo’s operation typically charged clients $30.00 for 15 minutes of sexual intercourse with the trafficked women, garnering almost half a million dollars in illicit proceeds.
A minor victim was specifically exploited due to the minor’s age. The victim was advertised to clients of the prostitution ring as being under the age of 18-years-old. She was initially coerced into the prostitution ring in 2009 at the age of fifteen-years-old, and on the first day, was forced to have sexual relations with 17 customers all across the northern Virginia region to include Alexandria, Falls Church, and Tyson’s Corner.
A warrant was issued for Campos Murillo’s arrest on December 13, 2011, and he has been considered a fugitive since that time. Campos Murillo is a 40-year old male standing at five feet six inches tall and approximately 200 pounds with brown eyes and black hair, last believed to be living in either Maryland or Delaware. If you have information on Campos Murillo’s whereabouts, please contact U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s Tip Line at 1-866-DHS-2ICE or www.ICE.gov/tips.

Remember that Democrats want to abolish ICE.

No, America, @JessicaValenti Doesn’t Want to Help Your Sons, She Hates Them

Posted on | July 28, 2018 | 1 Comment

 

It is difficult to exaggerate the evil of Jessica Valenti. Her “feminism” is, on the one hand, mostly partisan cheerleading for Democrats and, on the other hand, an excuse for her own destructive anti-social tendencies. Her recent memoir, Sex Object, is a “vengeful diatribe against heterosexual men,” including her own husband, Andrew Golis.

“Every time I see a dirty cup on the kitchen counter, my face gets red. The level of disrespect feels . . . as if Andrew has hopped on the counter, pulled down his pants, and taken a shit there for me to clean up. My husband is lovely. He is a feminist. . . .
“Our default mood is low-level annoyance toward each other with a propensity to turn into full-blown rage at the smallest thing. . . .
“I feel like I might hate him and I suspect he feels the same.”
— Jessica Valenti, 2016

One might pity Mr. Golis, except for the fact that he’s a Harvard-educated elitist who works for the left-wing anti-American site Vox, so he deserves whatever misery his feminist wife inflicts on him.

 

Considering her hatred of men, and that her chief interest in children is celebrating abortion — killing babies before they are born — do Americans want Ms. Valenti’s advice on how to raise our sons?

Whether it’s misogynist terrorism, the rash of young men feeling sexually entitled to women or the persistent stereotype of “real men” as powerful and violent, it’s never been clearer that American boys are in desperate need of intervention. . . .
Feminist ideas can help men — be it the rejection of expectations that men be strong and stoic or ending the silence around male victims of sexual violence. But boys also need the same kind of culture we created for girls. . . .

You can read the rest of that worthless screed, which includes a dishonest attack on Professor Jordan Peterson. Consider the alternative to raising boys to be “strong and stoic.” Ms. Valenti seems to imagine that what America needs is more weak and whiny men (like her husband).

Having raised four sons — two of whom are already married with children of their own — I don’t need any advice from Ms. Valenti. If she wanted to have sons, maybe she shouldn’t have had two abortions, but as it is, she should stop telling the rest of us how to raise our sons.

Jessica Valenti is dishonest in pretending she wants to “help” boys. She hates your sons. She wants them to be as miserable as she is. Her ideas about “intervention” — a “feminist culture for boys” — are simply about teaching boys to cooperate in their own destruction.

How to Argue With a Feminist
Rule One: Never argue with a feminist.
This is the only rule you need. There is no point trying to persuade a feminist that she’s wrong. If she were intellectually honest (and thus capable of admitting error) she would not be a feminist.
Because feminists never argue in good faith, nothing is to be gained by engaging in a back-and-forth discussion with them. . . .
Feminists are essentially sociopaths. The feminist’s characteristic traits are selfishness, dishonesty, and cruelty. She lacks the capacity for empathy, she will tell any lie which suits her purpose, and the raison d’être of her career is to inflict the maximum damage on males.

By the way, tonight at 7 p.m. ET, I’ll be hosting The Other Podcast with John Hoge, and we might discuss this among other timely topics.

California Is a ‘No-Go Zone’: Trump Supporters Attacked by Democrat Thugs

Posted on | July 28, 2018 | 3 Comments

This week, a vandal destroyed President Trump’s star on the Hollywood “Walk of Fame.” Thursday night, Elijah Schaffer and Joy Villa were recording a video at the site (Schaffer hosts a YouTube channel called “Slightly Offensive”) when they were surrounded by an angry mob of Democrat thugs. Being a Republican is more or less considered a “hate crime” nowadays in California, and Schaffer was wearing a red-white-and-blue Trump jersey. The mob started chanting “F–k Donald Trump” and — because they’re Democrats, and therefore thieves — one of the thugs stole a $3,000 camera from Schaffer’s crew. This led to a brawl and police are now looking for two suspects.

Democrats have been encouraged by Rep. Maxine Waters to attack Trump supporters, as Ace of Spades points out. Democrats control California, which is a “sanctuary state” for illegal immigrants. Hillary Clinton got 71% of the vote in Los Angeles County, where violence is escalating out of control. An LAPD officer was wounded in a shootout Friday. Meanwhile, in the San Francisco Bay area, the mayor of Oakland incited a mob to attack suspected Trump supporters in a bar.

Democrats are turning California into a “no-go zone” for Republicans, and honest law-abiding citizens are leaving the state, which is suffering a net out-migration of more than 100,000 a year. What the Democrats have done to California — the sidewalks of San Francisco are littered with discarded hypodermic needles and human waste — is what they plan to do to the rest of America, if they win control of Congress in November.
