PHOENIX (KYMA, KECY) - A man was sentenced to 120 months in prison who previously pleaded guilty for sex trafficking of a minor on July 14.

Jahque Dijion Williams is a 21-year-old man from Los Angeles, California who sex trafficked a minor from Phoenix, Arizona.

The Human Trafficking Unit of the Los Angeles Police Department found a 17-year-old girl at a Los Angeles hospital who appeared to have been physically assaulted on July 23, 2020.

The victim met Williams on July 19, 2020 through social media where he invited her to a party in Phoenix.

She then realized it was a "recruiting party" for commercial sex workers.

Williams transported her and an adult female to Los Angeles and told her that she will be working for him and used the child lock in the car to prevent them from escaping.

The minor was given details about the money she would need to bring each night to Williams.
