Craigslist has tried in vain to remain neutral, but all the negative attention the online service, sales and personals message board has drawn because of illegal online prostitution and "girlfriend experience" (GFE) ads might make it extremely hard for the police to allow them to operate in business-as-usual mode. It has proven almost impossible for Craigslist to weed out all offending ads, accounts Bronx News. This time, authorities have intervened in a prostitution ring advertised on Craigslist Albany. Twenty-five-year-old Ross Campbell, a former utility worker, has been arrested for pimping out young women via the site. The alleged pimp could serve as many as five decades in jail, based on the new York-based Bronx News lawful blog. Post resource – Craigslist Albany pimp gets busted by Personal Money Store.
Many offenses with Craigslist Albany
On Craigslist Albany, Queens resident Campbell's business included sex trafficking, kidnapping, rape, and other offenses that two "young" victims were involved in. This is what the Bronx District Attorney Robert Johnson explains. This is one of the first online-related convictions under the 2007 New York Sex Trafficking statute, and the first in Bronx County. Promoting prostitution had been the only thing that wasn't a Class B felony under Ross Campbell's Craigslist Albany crimes. This means up to 25 years in jail for each offense can be sentenced. It is possible for a consecutive term. It is more likely that a combined term will happen though.
The gossips about online prostitution
A 19 year old female with a 3 year old went to the Bronx thinking that, since she had an intimate relationship with Campbell, she'd be living with them, court docs say. She said she had been "forced to engage in prostitution" as they confronted her child would be harmed or killed otherwise. This was after she had been relocated to an apartment that Daniel Ebron, or Campbell's cousin, rented. She wound up escaping with her son after working as a prostitute through ads on Craigslist Albany.
Campbell allegedly kidnapped and raped two other victims, ages 18 and 19, at a later time.
