Man Who Worked In Md. Brothel Sentenced

BALTIMORE (AP) -- Federal prosecutors say an Easton man who pleaded guilty to transporting people for prostitution has been sentenced to a year in prison.

Isidro Jimenez Sanchez, 32, was sentenced on Thursday. Authorities say Jimenez Sanchez, a Mexican citizen in the U.S. illegally, will likely be deported after serving his term.

According to court documents, a co-defendant gave a confidential source a business card advertising prostitution. In July, authorities executed a search warrant on the brothel, on East Dover Street in Easton, and arrested Jimenez Sanchez, the co-defendant and a prostitute.
