Man Arrested for Trafficking Teen Girl | Annapolis News
Description
A 28-year-old man, Devante Clay Ransom, has been arrested in King County for trafficking a 14-year-old girl into sex work—exploiting her through force and coercion after meeting her online. The victim, who contacted police via 911 from a SeaTac motel, described how Ransom controlled her earnings, forced sexual encounters, and booked their room. Surveillance and online ads confirmed his involvement. Found at a car dealership, Ransom faces $300K bail as prosecutors demand he stay jailed while defense argues for release due to delays. This case exposes the chilling tactics used in modern sex trafficking, with Ransom’s next court date set for September.
