- Share via
A 21-year-old San Diego man pleaded guilty in federal court Thursday to luring a 14-year-old girl into prostitution and then finding customers for her on Craigslist.com.
Christopher Black faces a mandatory, minimum 10-year prison sentence. He admitted in court that he took pictures of the girl wearing lingerie and placed “escort” ads for her.
For two months, Black drove the girl to motels to meet the “johns” and kept the money, according to testimony. He is set for sentencing Feb. 17. Two co-defendants await trial.
