Man gets 24 years for running sex ring (Illegal Alien/Criminal)

Women and girls as young as 16 were smuggled into this country from Mexico and brought to Charlotte to work as prostitutes. For $25 and $30, authorities said, they performed sex acts – sometimes with 20 men a day.

Jorge Flores Rojas, a 44-year- old undocumented Mexican national accused of running the sex trafficking ring, has been sentenced in Charlotte to 24 years in prison, authorities said Tuesday. He was ordered to pay $117,000 in restitution to one woman. He also must register as a sex offender.

Acting U.S. Attorney Edward Ryan said Tuesday that prostitution rings like the one Flores was operating pose a serious problem in Charlotte.

“We've got people who are preying on young girls and forcing them to work as sex slaves,” Ryan said. “These poor girls have sex with 20 men, one right after the other. It's horrible. It's not prostitution in the traditional sense – it's slavery.”

Flores told federal agents he paid smugglers $2,500 apiece to bring some of the women from Mexico into the United States and deliver them to his apartment in Charlotte. He then forced the women to work as prostitutes in Charlotte, Myrtle Beach and Washington, D.C., court documents said.

Going out on a limb here, but I'm guessing they didn't pay a penny in any taxes. Which means you are correct, although you forgot to mention free helthcare and a free college education at our expense.

“He then forced the women to work as prostitutes in Charlotte, Myrtle Beach “

Myrtle has a huge illegal population that does the grunt work for the hotel/resort services industry.

Dude will probably get deported and end up in a town near you or me in a few months doing the same exact thing. Scum is probably funded by the Mexican drug gangs that the MSM says is only a small problem on some border towns.

Anyone who has visited a border town such as Juarez or Vera Cunya knows that this is a part of the Mexican culture.

WTF are you talking about? These girls were kidnapped or coerced into coming to the U.S., and then forced into a hellish existence, and you are worried that we might be trying to help them? Nice.

He was willing to operate the sex slave trade that Americans were unwilling to run.
