Today, a federal grand jury in Milwaukee returned a 15-count superseding
indictment charging two Milwaukee men, Paul Carter aka “Pimpin’ Paul”
and David Moore aka “King David” with conspiracy, sex trafficking and
related offenses spanning from the years 2007 to 2013.
Carter, 44, and Moore, 46, both of Milwaukee, were each previously
indicted, Carter for two counts of sex trafficking and Moore for sex
trafficking, conspiracy and solicitation of a crime of violence.
The 15-count indictment returned today charges the two
defendants jointly in four additional counts of conspiracy, sex
trafficking, and labor trafficking, and charges each defendant with
additional sex trafficking offenses, for a total of six additional
counts against defendant Carter and eight additional counts against
defendant Moore.
Both defendants are charged with sex trafficking of both adults and minors.
If convicted, Carter and Moore each face a sentence of up to life imprisonment.
The case was investigated by the Human Trafficking Task Force for the
Eastern District of Wisconsin, which includes law enforcement officers
from FBI, Homeland Security Investigations, Wisconsin Division of
Criminal Investigation and the Milwaukee Police Department.
The case is being prosecuted by Assistant United States
Attorney Karine Moreno-Taxman of the Eastern District of Wisconsin and
Trial Attorney Daniel H. Weiss of the Civil Rights Division’s Human
Trafficking Prosecution Unit.
An indictment is merely an accusation, and each defendant is presumed innocent until proven guilty.
