ANOKA CO., Minn. (FOX 9) - A Minnesota prostitution investigation uncovered the alleged involvement of former Anoka County Assistant Attorney Andrea Sampson, who is accused of maintaining fake companies to hide the profits of a sex trafficking operation.

The criminal complaint also names Frank Devone Reeves, described by victims as a "pimp," Viktoriya Sergeyevna Komonash, who victims called a "house mom" and Katherine Michelle Thomes, who investigators say owned and operated the online commercial sex website "Minnesota Erotica Personals."

Investigators say Sampson, along with Komonash and Thomes, believed they were in a romantic or sexual relationship with Reeves as they continued to conduct business for the organization.

Authorities say Reeves and Komonash recruited women, posted commercial sex ads, set rates, secured apartments for transactions, and collected profits. Thomes allegedly owned and operated the "Minnesota Erotica Personals" website, where women were advertised, and collected fees for postings and ad "bumps."

The criminal complaint states Sampson's role in the operation included securing and providing locations for the commercial sex transactions to take place as well as creating and maintaining LLCs that acted as "shell companies to assist the operation in hiding/funneling the profits from the sex trafficking organization."

Minnesota is the trashiest state in the USA. Gives me the creeps just thinking about how evil that state is.

Minnesota is a great state. Occupied Territory of Minneapolistan is a schiffhole.

Quite the man. Kept 3 women happy and probably was checking the qualification of the working whores as well.

Unbelievable, now we have Flanagan, Lt. Gov., who must have known about the $9billion fraud going on under Walz and Ellison, is now running for higher office.

Then Tafoya another gufus running for Senate who must have known the same fraud was occurring under Walz and Ellison but neither of these two idiots did anything.

Democrats. If they’re not enabling Child trafficking they are actively participating in prostitution. But keep in mind they aren’t posting mean tweets

Sounds like Anoka County did exactly what you’d expect a responsible government agency to do. Every organization has its own 2% of crooks and idiots.

“In a statement, Anoka County Attorney Brad Johnson confirmed Sampson was once an assistant attorney with the county, assigned to the office’s Family Law and Civil Division.

According to Johnson, the BCA spoke with top members of the Anoka County Attorney’s Office on Feb. 25, 2026, and informed them it was investigating Johnson.

The Anoka County Attorney’s Office placed Sampson on administrative leave, and her last day of employment was March 9.

Sampson is currently in custody in Hennepin County; her first court date is scheduled for Aug. 17.”

Minnesota’s been a bastion of democrat political control for a very long time. Look what’s become of it.
