Tim Leavell Cook, 27, of Fresno, will have to register as a sex offender for life, said the district attorney's office. He faces a maximum of six years and four months in prison at his sentencing on June 9.

On Dec. 5, 2022, Seaside Police were called to a young female dressed inappropriately for the weather and crying. She asked to borrow a phone because she was not from the area and was afraid she was stranded, said Pacioni.

The victim was identified as a missing 17-year-old from Fresno. She was brought to the area by Cook to have her engage in sex acts for money. This resulted in Cook receiving all the money, said Pacioni.

Police determined this was not the first time Cook took her to Seaside for this purpose. Cook was placing online advertisements offering the victim for sexual services around Monterey County, said Pacioni.

The victim was taken to a safe area and returned to her guardian/parent, said Pacioni.

If justice isn’t delivered by the courts, it will be by the people.

Monterey County District Attorney Jeannine M. Pacioni

From her bio…

Ms. Pacioni is a Board Member of the Monterey Rape Crisis Center

Being raped, and trafficked is fine to this bimbo.

She May harbor a desire to be pimped in a similar manner.

Jailing a young man for pimping would perpetuate racial inequity.

OK D.A. Pacioni, what exactly do you think Mr. Cook will be doing to earn a living? How exactly is probation going to magically transform this sex trafficker of children? What PUNISHMENT is Mr. Cook actually earning for his crime.

Ms. Pacioni, you are no better than this criminal. You are failing good, law abiding citizens you ostensibly serve.

I thought trafficking was a bad thing. Three years probation?
