Man Convicted of Sex Trafficking

In September of 2008, a 14-year-old El Cajon girl was taken by four men to a motel in Oceanside. The men forced the girl to pose nude for photographs. The four have all either plead guilty or were found guilty of charges they faced in connection with the incident.

San Diego 10 News stated that the men were going to use the photographs to sell the girl over the internet for sex. Shawndrea Dorrough, Dywane Tousant, and Dominique Willis all plead guilty and have scheduled sentencing dates.

Patrick Jones went to trial and he was recently found guilty of sexual exploitation and sex trafficking of a minor by a jury. He could go to prison for 15 years to life when he is sentenced.

The California Child Abuse and Neglect Reporting Act is covered in the California Penal Code Section 11164-11174.3. It covers all forms of sexual abuse against a child including sexual exploitation which is defined as preparing, selling, or distributing obscene matter involving a minor or employing a minor to perform obscene acts.
