Beltsville Pimp Who Trafficked Three Women, Including A 17-Year-Old Girl, Sentenced to 8 Years In Federal Prison

BALTIMORE (WJZ) -- A Beltsville pimp was sentenced to eight years in federal prison by a U.S. District Court Judge Friday for conspiracy to commit sex trafficking.

According to Kamal Dorchy's plea agreement, Dorchy trafficked three victims, including a 17-year-old girl, for prostitution. Dorchy posted prostitution advertisements on the internet from September 2016 to July 2017.

Dorchy told investigators he met the 17-year-old at a strip club, and that he didn't know the girl was 17 at the time. Dorchy reportedly arranged "dates" for the girl online.

Dorchy also operated out of a massage business. A victim told investigators she was hired as a host by Dorchy, and later did "prostitution dates" at the business.

The 46-year-old will have to register as a sex offender and will have 15 years of supervised release after serving his sentence.
