WICHITA, KAN. – A Wichita man pleaded guilty Monday to
federal sex trafficking charges, U.S. Attorney Stephen McAllister said.
Johnell Carter, 22, Wichita, Kan., pleaded guilty to two
counts of sex trafficking. In his plea, he admitted he used physical force
including punching and biting to make an 18-year-old woman perform commercial
sex acts. He advertised her services online.
In the second count, Carter admitted recruiting a
15-year-old to perform commercial sex acts. He advertised her services online.
Sentencing is set for March 4. Both parties have agreed to
argue for a sentence in a range of 15 years to 25 years in federal prison.
McAllister commended the FBI, the Wichita Police Department, the Exploited and
Missing Child Unit (EMCU) and Assistant U.S. Attorney Jason Hart for their work
on the case.
