Massachusetts Attorney General Andrea Joy Campbell’s office Friday announced 45 indictments against 10 defendants in a statewide sex trafficking case.
According to officials, Gianni Martinez, 23, of Lynn, “trafficked multiple women for sexual servitude and attempted to recruit additional women to engage in commercial sex”.
“Martinez allegedly set up online dating profiles for his victims on various websites, began conversations with potential buyers, and ultimately arranged transportation for the victims to meet sex buyers, engage in commercial sex acts, and give Martinez or his grandmother, Rosa Garcia, 68, of Lynn, any payments they received,” officials said in a statement. “The AGO also alleges that Martinez was physically violent and coercive with his victims.”
