BRIDGEPORT, Conn. (AP) — A New York man was sentenced Friday to more than 24 years in prison for sex trafficking a 12-year-old girl in a case authorities say was a modern form of slavery.

Corey ``Magnificent'' Davis, 36, was sentenced to 293 months in prison by U.S. District Judge Janet Hall after pleading guilty in March to a federal sex trafficking charge.

Prosecutors say Davis forced girls as young as 12 to work as dancers and prostitutes, confining them to a house in Queens, N.Y. while he lived a life of luxury that included driving a Mercedes and wearing expensive jewelry.

Slavery exists in the modern world, and this is but one form it takes.

I posted this because of those members of the ?Shriners' sub group, the Royal Order of Jesters, who were caught by the FBI* in a human trafficking sting.

This relationship between sex slavery and one of our nation's greatest charities doesn't square and the public needs to know about these nonprofit abuses.

Thanks so much for your comments,

Sandy
