FORT WORTH (WBAP/KLIF News) – Six Fort Worth gang members have been indicted in a child sex trafficking ring.
Federal prosecutors said the defendants acted as pimps and subjected their victims to brutal beatings in addition to prostitution.
The defendants allegedly used Backpage.com to advertise their services and bragged on Facebook about making lots of money from pimping.
They’re each facing life in prison, if convicted.
The indictments stem from a series of stings back in July.
