Miami-Dade, FL - A Georgia man is in jail without bond after allegedly trafficking his 19-year-old girlfriend and forcing her into prostitution for months in Atlanta and Miami.
According to a Miami-Dade police report, 46-year-old Prince Pierre met the victim in Atlanta last October and convinced her to become an escort.
He controlled her finances, set up her "dates," and subjected her to violence if she disobeyed.
The report details Pierre's manipulation tactics, including using the victim's children's financial needs as leverage.
He allegedly beat her on multiple occasions and even tattooed his name on her body.
In January, Pierre brought the victim to Miami where she continued to be forced into prostitution.
The victim finally managed to escape over the weekend after another argument with Pierre.
Police arrested Pierre and charged him with two counts of human trafficking, profiting from prostitution, renting space for prostitution, and strong-armed robbery.
He is currently being held without bond at the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center.
This case highlights the disturbing reality of human trafficking and the importance of victim support services.
