9/17/2013 – OKC, OK — Murder charges have been filed against an Oklahoma City teenager for the murder of her own father – prosecutors allege the death was over non-payment for drugs.

According to court records, Angelina Davis, 18, strangled her father with a cord on March 21, after he refused to pay her for drugs that she supplied him.

Neighbors found 77-year-old Jay Davis deceased in is run down home in Oklahoma City.

Davis had a rope around his neck and his wallet was missing. Investigators believe Davis had been dead for several days before his body was discovered.

Angelina immediately became a suspect after neighbors and friends of the family informed investigators that Angelina often harassed her father for money and was physically abusive towards him.

Angelina had even allegedly told friends that she was going to kill her father if he did not pay for the drugs she had recently given him.

Investigators located Angelina at a mobile home park in Del City. Reportedly Angelina knew information that only the killer would have known – such as where Davis’ body was located.

According to the probable cause affidavit, Angelina is a drug addict and often prostituted herself to pay for her addiction.

On July 26, Angelina was charged in Oklahoma County with murder in the first degree.

Angelina is being held in the Oklahoma County Jail without bond.

9/17/2013 – A multi-juridictional prostitution sting in northeast Oklahoma has resulted in the arrests of 42 individuals for soliciting, pandering and/or aiding and abetting prostitution.

Oklahoma Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs Control spokesman Mark Woodward said the four-day undercover operation, dubbed ‘Trojan Horse,’ focused on organized sex trafficking in Tulsa, Rogers, Ottowa and Delaware Counties.

During the sting it is reported that agents raided a Bixby massage parlor and also made arrests at two casinos in Ottawa County.

According to probable cause affidavits, the women involved in prostitution were charging $60 for 30-minutes and up to $700 for an overnight stay.

According to authorities the arrests breakdown as 13 for engaging in prostitution, 20 for soliciting prostitution, seven for pandering, one person for aiding and abetting prostitution and one for possession of methamphetamine.

So far, charged in Ottawa County District Court are;

  1.  Ashley Romine, 26, of Ormond Beach, Fla.
    Charged with soliciting prostitution.
  2. Tica Shaner, 35, of Pierce City, Mo.
    Charged with soliciting prostitution.

The youngest female taken into custody was only 15-years old.

Three women were identified as victims of human trafficking and were taken to a shelter.

Oklahoma currently does not have a certified shelter for victims of human trafficking – no information was given as to what type of shelter the victims were taken to or what services are being offered to them.

Reportedly none of the human trafficking victims were on any missing persons lists.

“OBN is committed to dismantling organizations involved in the seedy world of prostitution and ultimately human trafficking,” said Darrell Weaver, director of the Oklahoma Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs.

Other agencies involved in the investigation include the Bureau of Indian Affairs, Homeland Security, Tulsa Police, Rogers County Sheriff’s Office, Miami Police, Grove Police, Ottawa County Sheriff’s Office, Delaware County District Attorney’s Office, Quapaw Tribal Marshals, Eastern Shawnee Tribal Police, Wyandotte Nation Tribal Police, Cherokee County Sheriff’s Office in Kansas and Newton County Sheriff’s Office in Missouri.

‘Predator’ or ‘Victim’? What you don’t know about the Okla couple indicted for human trafficking

9/18/2013 – JohnTV has uncovered more details regarding an Oklahoma couple recently indicted in Tulsa for human trafficking – details that indicate the couple’s indictment is tied to both Oklahoma City and Tulsa prostitution activities and may cast one of the accused in a new light….. “victim” as opposed to “trafficker.”

Local media, and JohnTV, were all abuzz with the July arrest and Sept indictment in Tulsa of Ronald Everette Spivey Jr., 47, aka ‘Big Daddy’, and Kimberly Haven, 25, both of Oklahoma City.

According to court records, on July 25, a female undercover Tulsa police officer placed an ad in the ‘escort’ section of Backpage.com and indicated that she needed to make some money.

Soon thereafter, Spivey replied to the ad via text message and suggested that the undercover officer should go with him to Vegas or Florida to work.

The female officer replied that she was only 17-years old and was a stripper – to which Spivey replied that he was “cool” with that.

Spivey and the undercover officer continued to exchange text messages over the next few days.

Eventually, Spivey insisted on meeting the undercover officer so that he could take her to Dallas. The officer stated that she would meet Spivey at the McDonald’s located near Admiral and Memorial in Tulsa and would be wearing a pink shirt.

When Spivey arrived at the McDonald’s he parked across the street and sent Haven on foot to approach the undercover officer (Like the coward he is).

When Haven was arrested she told investigators that she was sent inside by Spivey to look for a woman in a pink shirt. Haven also reportedly told officers she was “recruiting girls to prostitute.”

On Aug. 13, Spivey and Haven were charged in Tulsa County with attempted human trafficking.

JohnTV, having encountered Haven previously on S. Robinson Ave. in south Oklahoma City, felt something wasn’t quite right with this story so we did a little more digging and what we found casts additional light on this case and begs the question, “should Haven be treated as a predator or prey?”

JohnTV reported on Spivey back in Aug. of 2012 when he was arrested, along with at least 47 others, for transporting an individual for the purpose of prostitution.

In that case, Spivey allegedly drove a known female prostitute to the upscale Skirvin hotel in downtown OKC to meet with a ‘John’ that had contacted her through an ad she had placed on Backpage.com. What Spivey didn’t realize is that he was driving right into an undercover prostitution sting conducted by OKC Vice, the FBI and OBN.

The prostitute, Leslie Lee Grant, was taken into custody after she agreed to perform specific sexual acts in exchange for money.

Spivey was then confronted by agents who had been watching him and placed under arrest after he was found to be in possession of a cell phone associated with online prostitution ads and allegedly admitted that he, “had an idea that [Grant] was going to the hotel to engage in prostitution related activities.”

Even though Spivey has extensive DOC criminal record, in April of this year he was allowed to negotiate a plea of guilty in exchange for only a fine and court costs. This, despite court records that indicate that police and prosecutors acknowledge Spivey is a violent pimp going back to at least 1998.

Quote from Oklahoma County search warrant #SW-13-596

Spivey has been identified as a suspect in numerous police reports as a pimp. Several of the reports involved female victims under the age of eighteen. Spivey was known to use drugs and/or physical violence to get some of these women to work for him. … It should be noted that Spivey’s involvement in prostitution goes back to 1998. …

As proof that such lax sentences only empower and embolden the criminal activity of the likes of Spivey, just five days after his guilty plea and slap-on-the-wrist, Spivey was encountered during another OKC Vice sting.

According to court documents, on Apr. 23, Spivey once again was spotted by undercover officers transporting a woman for prostitution.

Around 10:40 p.m. Spivey drove Kimberly Haven, to the LaQuinta Inn near I-40 and Meridian after undercover officers responded to her Backpage.com escort ad.

Once in the hotel room, Haven became suspicious of the undercover officer and left a few minutes later without establishing probable cause for her arrest.

Fifteen days later (5/8/2013) Haven walked into the Oklahoma County Court Clerk’s office and filed for a Victim’s Protective Order against Spivey.

In her petition for a protective order, Haven identified Spivey as her “boyfriend” and indicated that he had threatened, harassed and stalked her.

Ronald is abusive. He has choked me, hit me in my face. Busted my lip. Said he was gonna have me beat up by someone else (girls). Calls me constantly. When he would hit me and I wanted to leave he wouldn’t let me leave. I told him to leave me alone and he said no. He said he was going to find me. He keeps me from my family. He threatened to have me beat up when I go to court (My family has seen me beat up). All of this happened at his apartment. He blacked my nose and eye. I’ve had multiple bruises on my body. All over. Arms, legs, face, hands. I’m scared to walk down the street by myself. He has prior domestic abuse charges.

Haven’s fear of Spivey was not unwarranted and police records back up his threats of violence against any woman who dares to leave him, cooperates with police or attempts to get a VPO against him.

Quote from Oklahoma County search warrant #SW-13-596

… Spivey was also accused of raping several of the females that filed police reports, but were too afraid to follow through with criminal prosecution efforts…

Spivey apparently made good on his threats against Haven as she was found in his apartment during a May 20, search warrant executed by Oklahoma City Vice.

According to court documents from the search of Spivey’s apartment at The Highlands (12701 N. Penn #293, OKC),

On 5/20/13 at approximately 1030 hours the OCPD Vice Unit executed a search warrant at the apartment of Ronald Spivey (AR). Spivey and a female were contacted inside the apartment. I interviewed the female, who is a known prostitute, while the apartment search was conducted. During the interview, the female confirmed that she worked for Spivey as a prostitute and gave him most of the money she made from her prostitution activities. The female said she was afraid of Spivey because of the physical and mental abuse she received from Spivey. I was aware that the female recently filed for a victim’s protective order (VPO) against Spivey. The female advised that she never sought medical attention for the injuries she received from Spivey but that the injuries were possibly documented by medical staff at medical facilities she’d visited for other medical reasons. The female explained that she came back to Spivey a week after she filed for the VPO because he had all her belongings including her ID cards and birth certificate. It should be noted that officers found the female’s ID in Spivey’s wallet and her birth certificate in the bottom drawer of the nightstand in Spivey’s bedroom on his side of the bed. One of the female’s ID’s were found hidden between the mattresses in a second bedroom.

Among the items seized during the search warrant were;

  1. Papers containing handwritten notes regarding female’s names, numbers and ‘John’ information.
  2. State of Oklahoma driver’s license for Kimberly Haven (located between the mattress and box springs of a twin bed).
  3. Numerous Visa gift cards, MasterCard debit cards and WalMart debit cards.
  4. Multiple Oklahoma MasterCard tax refund cards.
  5. A box of ‘erotic services’ business cards.
  6. A state of Oklahoma ID card in the name of Danielle Renee Smith.
  7. A state of Oklahoma driver’s license in the name of Sheena Roslind Marie Bauer.
  8. A state of Oklahoma ID card in the name of Kayla Marie Buff.
  9. A state of Oklahoma driver’s license in the name of Leslie Renee Grant.
  10. A Seminole Nation tribal ID card in the name of Rayna Claire Harjo.
  11. Digital scales.
  12. Pepper spray.
  13. Birth certificate for Kimberly Marie Haven.
  14. Marijuana.
  15. Numerous medical bills for Kimberly Haven.
  16. 10 pages of documents regarding Melissa Ann (Gallaher) Pope.
  17. Nextbook tablet PC
  18. 14 cell phones.

During the investigation, OKC Vice was able to connect numerous online ads for prostitution to cell phones belonging to Spivey as noted in the affidavit for search warrant #SW-13-596,

Spivey’s cell phone number has been associated with several escort ads posted on various Internet websites. Several of these ads featured photos of different females. One of the females appeared to be very young and has yet to be positively identified. The background areas in these photos appeared to be from inside the same apartment. … While inside Spivey’s apartment, officers were able to identify the locations where several of the photos were taken. Officers also located photo identification cards for some of the females featured in the escort ads, inside Spivey’s apartment. Some of the females that Spivey attempted to work for him as prostitutes reported that he took their identification and other personal belongings and refused to give them back unless they worked for him.

Three days after the search warrant (5/23/2013), Haven appeared before Judge Andrews in an Oklahoma County courtroom. Spivey had not been served a summons to appear, so Haven received a new June court date.

On June 11, the VPO was dismissed after Spivey appeared in court, but Haven did not.

As a result of the May search warrant, OKC Vice was granted two additional search warrants – one that was served to Backpage.com, owned by the Village Voice media and the other to retrieve the electronic data stored on 14 cell phones and one tablet pc recovered during the initial search.

In one of the warrants, Backpage was ordered to turn over identifying information related to seven prostitution related ads posted in Oklahoma City and Palm Springs.

Just a month after Haven’s attempted VPO against Spivey was dismissed and just two months after Haven told officers she was prostituting for Spivey out of force, fear and coercion she was arrested in Tulsa during a prostitution sting and subsequently indicted, along with Spivey, for human trafficking – where she now faces the very real possibility of being sentenced to five-years in prison.

So, JohnTV asks….. based on this evidence, is Haven a ruthless pimp and human trafficker or a textbook example of a woman forced to do whatever her pimp demands of her – including prostituting herself and recruiting others?

Some might say, “She’s a 25-year-old woman so she’s old enough to know better and fully capable of getting away from Spivey.”

Had Haven lived a ‘normal’ life up to the age of 25 and then happened to meet Spivey, then, in many ways JohnTV would support that idea of personal responsibility.

But that doesn’t appear to be the case. While we know little of Haven’s childhood, what we do know paints a picture of anything but ‘normal.’

Records indicate that Haven and her sister grew up in a broken family and were allegedly exploited by more than just pimps.

Haven’s parents divorced when she was only seven-years old.

By the age of 13 (2001) Haven’s mother had died.

Guardianship of Haven and her sister was awarded to a Paul and Janetta Mitchell (no relation was defined in the court documents reviewed by JohnTV).

Haven’s father, Joe Haven, through local attorney Sam Caporal, filed to have guardianship returned to him shortly thereafter.

During this time in 2002 things apparently started going terribly wrong for Haven, as noted in a court record authored by a police detective,

Haven is a known prostitute and has been associated with the prostitution business since 2002. Haven was thirteen when she was first contacted by the OCPD Vice Unit.

It is alleged that attorney Caporal failed to attend the 2002 court hearing regarding guardianship. Caporal then allegedly failed to attend the rescheduled hearing in 2003 and Caporal took no further action.

Joe Haven died in 2004 – leaving Haven and her sister without parents.

In May of 2011 a civil case was filed on Haven and her sister’s behalf in regard to nearly $100,000 that they allege was wrongfully denied them after their father’s death.

In the lawsuit, Haven and her sister alleged that local attorney Sam G. Caporal and Haven’s aunt and trustee Donna Loyd…

engaged in malicious use of process, abuse of process, fraud, conversion, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and professional negligence. … Plaintiff’s claims against defendant Donna Loyd are based upon conversion and misuse of funds while acting under the color of guardianship. Defendant Sam Caporal’s professional negligence provided the opportunity for and allowed for the concealment of the wrongful acts of Donna Loyd.

What is apparently at issue is approximately $100,000 in life insurance benefits issued to Haven and her sister upon their father’s death in 2004.

The lawsuit contends that attorney Caporal filed a guardianship petition naming Haven’s aunt, Donna Loyd, as guardian over Haven and her sister’s estates since both siblings were minors – though the sisters were approximately 16 and 17 at the time of the filing and 18 when guardianship was awarded to Loyd.

The lawsuit goes on to claim that less than a month later Loyd cashed the benefit checks, paid Caporal over $14,000 and the balance has remained unaccounted for.

It is also alleged that social security payments made to Haven were deposited by Loyd and did not directly benefit the siblings.

Loyd apparently told the siblings in 2004 that the money was in a trust and would not be made available to them until they reached the age of 25.

Haven’s attorney contends that information is false and that Loyd continues to refuse to account for the nearly $100,000 in benefits owed to Haven and her sister.

Both attorney Caporal and trustee Loyd, through court filings, deny the Haven siblings allegations.

It would appear Haven had little control or normalcy during her teen and pre-teen years. Exposed to prostitution at the age of 13 and being under the mental and physical control of the likes of Spivey has robbed Haven of the ability to make decisions that are in her best interest.

Haven is currently being held in the Tulsa County Jail.

Her original bond of $100,000 was reduced to $75,000 on Sept 11.

JohnTV will continue to follow this case and invites readers to share your support to define and treat Haven as a ‘victim’ and not an ‘offender.’

11/10/2013 – Oklahoma — You Heard it Here First! A Oklahoma City man arrested last week in Stillwater on pimping related charges has a long criminal history that includes an acquittal for murder when he was only 19.

JohnTV recently reported on ‘Operation Dragon Slayer’ – the Stillwater online prostitution sting that netted 26-arrests – five of which for pimping related charges.

One of those alleged pimps was identified as Markeese Phelps, 23, from Oklahoma City.

After further investigation by JohnTV, we have learned that Phelps is also known by the last name Ward, using the same middle name, date of birth (12/30/89) and listing the same home address in the 11100 block of North McKinley in OKC. No formal name change application however could be readily located.

According to court records and media accounts, Phelps, 19, (using the last name Ward) was arrested in 2009 and charged with the murder of 23-year-old Calvin Atchison outside the Oklahoma City dance club Fritzi’s II – located at 1164 N. MacArthur Blvd.

2009 article in the Oklahoman regarding Phelps’/Ward’s arrest for murder.

Atchison, described as a rival gang-member of Phelps/Ward, was shot twice in the head while he sat in the driver’s seat of a car in the club parking lot around 3 a.m. Phelps/Ward suffered a gunshot wound as well that may have come from the victim returning fire.

The victim’s brother, felon Cajuan Johnson, reportedly identified Phelps/Ward as the shooter in a police provided photo lineup.

The shooting came soon after Phelps’/Ward’s release from prison boot camp as a result of pleading guilty to cocaine and burglary offenses.

Apparently classes Phelps/Ward successfully completed in prison bootcamp, such as ‘Getting Motivated to Change,’ ‘Life Without a Crutch,’ and ‘Unlocking Your Thinking,’ didn’t have the intended effect.

Despite being at the scene of the murder and suffering a gunshot wound himself and being identified by a witness as the murderer, Phelps/Ward was acquitted by a jury in 2011. Prosecutors said convicting gang-members is very difficult due to a ‘no snitching’ mentality. Prosecutors also admitted their witness had credibility issues and Phelps/Ward maintained he was shot as a bystander walking through the parking lot.

Phelps’/Ward’s criminal resume includes;

  1. 2007 felony charge and conviction for burglary.
  2. 2009 felony conviction for trafficking cocaine and vehicle theft.
  3. 2009 charge and conviction for possession of marijuana.
  4. 2009 charge and acquittal for murder in the first degree. (possession of a firearm charges dismissed).
  5. 2010 charge and conviction for possession of contraband in prison.
  6. 2012 charge and conviction for four counts of felony possession of contraband in a prison.
  7. 2013 charge for possession of meth.
  8. 2013 charge for knowingly concealing stolen property.
  9. 2013 charge for false impersonation creating liability and driving without a license.

Despite the laundry list of criminal charges and convictions above, Phelps/Ward has yet to serve more than 16-months in prison.

According to the Oklahoma Department of Corrections, Phelps/Ward is on paper until 12/19/2027.

Also according to the DOC, Phelps/Ward has a tattoo on his hand that reads “Death Before Dishonor,” one on his neck that reads “Jasmin” and one on his back that reads “VSG” (possibly stands for Vegas Street Gang – unconfirmed).

No additional details on Phelp’s/Ward’s most recent pimping/prostitution related arrest have been released.

Criminal charges have yet to be filed in Phelp’s/Ward’s most recent arrest.

JohnTV will continue to follow this case.

 Markeese Kreashawn Ward- Phelps Mugshot Murder Pimp

Schoolgirl madam busted for recruiting friends into prostitution with 62-year-old businessman

11/11/2013 – Webster, TX — A Texas teen and a wealthy business man are accused of conspiring to coerce girls as young as 14-years-old to engage in prostitution.

According to published reports, Chelsey Elizabeth Taylor, 17, met Michael Wayne McIntosh, 62, while Taylor was working as a host at the sports bar/restaurant Ojos Locos – located near Almeda and the Gulf Freeway.

McIntosh, known by bar staff as ‘Money Mike,’ is reported to have been a regular customer of the establishment and would flirt with and give large tips to the young female staff.

Michael Wayne McIntosh Mugshot JohnInvestigators allege that at some point last summer Taylor, who was only 16 when she began working at the bar/restaurant, began engaging in a sex for money relationship with McIntosh in his upscale home in the Wildwood neighborhood.

As time went on, McIntosh wanted more and even younger girls and Taylor wanted easier cash – so the two allegedly conspired for Taylor to become a pimp and recruit her attractive female friends to have sex with McIntosh for $1,000 per visit – with Taylor receiving a portion of the proceeds.

The investigation into Taylor and McIntosh began when officials with the Clear Creek Independent School District contacted authorities about rumors involving a wealthy businessman who was engaging in sex with multiple underage students.

Police have identified as many 15 young victims, some as young as 14-years-old, from two different Houston area schools – Clear Creek and Clear Springs.

According to Galveston County court documents, one of the young victims told police Taylor brought the girls to McIntosh’s because she hated him, and having sex with him. That victim told investigators Taylor believed the younger girls would “take one for the team” — meaning they were “easily manipulated into having sex with McIntosh”.

Taylor, who resides in League, Texas was arrested Nov. 7, on complaints of compelling prostitution and freed on $40,000 bond.

McIntosh, of Friendswood, TX, arrested in three complaints of sexual assault of a child and is freed on $120,000 bond.

According to court documents recently released, McIntosh was kicked out of a Bone Daddy’s restaurant in Webster last Feb. for allegedly soliciting sex from waitresses.

One 15-year-old victim told forensic interviewers she visited the suspect’s home with a 17- year-old friend for the “sole purpose of getting money.” By the second visit, the girl said McIntosh started talking about graphic sexual activities and becoming more pushy. On the third visit, the suspect allegedly demanded sex and when the girl refused, McIntosh allegedly forced himself on her. Afterwards, the suspect handed over $800 and told the girl not to tell anyone because “Our business is our business,” according to court records.

According to court documents, some of the victims went alone and others in small groups. Some only visited McIntosh once while others returned many times.

It appears each scenario went the same – McIntosh would give a young girl $100-$300 for simply ‘standing there and looking pretty.’ McIntosh would then invite them to return, but with each visit McIntosh allegedly would offer more money and gifts and demand more explicit behavior.

One victim claims that on her third visit McIntosh disrobed and when she refused to have sex with him he forced himself on her.

Other victims admitted to investigators to giving McIntosh oral sex in exchange for cash.

According to one victim, she was driven to McIntosh’s home at least six times and received as much as $1,000 on each visit. However, she expressed that she was required to give 50% to Taylor – whom was described as a pimp.

According to published reports, Taylor is not cooperating with authorities.

Authorities are asking any girls that may have been coerced into prostitution for Taylor with McIntosh to please come forward – prosecutors have stated the girls will be treated as victims and not face any charges.

Anyone with information related to the case is urged to call Webster Police Detective David Nettles at 281-316-4169.

 

Organization removes libelous Carina Saunders video after OKC attorney issues demand

11/11/2013 (updated 11/12/2013) – Florida based ‘non-profit’ Out of the Life Inc. has removed a controversial video that depicted a murdered Oklahoma teen after negative media attention and take-down demand from OKC attorney.

JohnTV broke the story of the video last week and then worked with local CBS-affiliate KWTV News9′s Lisa Monahan in getting the story out.

Out of the Life Inc. touts itself as a Lake Mary, FL non-profit dedicated to helping exploited women out of a life of prostitution and sex trafficking.

ResourcePoint’s online profile of Out of the Life Inc. describes the organization as;

We are a support group for Women who have worked or are currently working in the sex industry and want to get Out Of The Life.

We understand it is a difficult and frightening process and work to support your decisions as you transition to a more traditional lifestyle. The only requirement is a desire to quit. You do not have to quit in order to participate.

We offer a wide range of support services including referrals for legal services, housing, individual and family counseling, resources for getting job training for a legitimate job or a real career and, most importantly, the support of other women who have the same goal.

Carina Saunders

Carina Saunders, OKC teen brutally murdered in 2011.

The group posted a video, in Aug. of last year, to YouTube and then linked the video to several social media Websites, their own Twitter account and even a funding effort at GoFundMe.com.

The video, an amateurish public service announcement, profiled several young women and identified them as victims of prostitution.

During the video, Oklahoma City teenager Carina Saunders’ photo is clearly shown – however, everything tied to the photo of Saunders in the video was a lie.

Saunders is identified as ‘Asia’ a young woman living a double life as an aspiring art student by day and the victim of a vicious pimp by night.

The video goes on to state that ‘Asia’ became addicted to pills, at the hand of her human trafficker, and was eventually found dead of an overdose in a hotel room (see screen grabs from the video below).

It is not known if the other profiles contained the video were also complete fabrications.

In reality, Saunders was the highly publicized victim of a brutal murder and dismemberment.

Saunders’ remains were found in one or more duffle bags behind a Homeland grocery store in Bethany, OK on Oct. 13 2011.

One theory widely reported in the media is that Saunders’ murder was done by members of a human sex trafficking organization that randomly targeted Saunders for no other reason than to send a message to those  within the organization not to cross them and to earn more money.

This theory has not been supported by any direct evidence despite the media’s fervor to keep reporting it.

Saunders is not believed to have had any direct association with prostitution or human sex trafficking.

Jesse Maley, Exec. Dir. Out of the Life Inc.

Jesse Maley, Exec. Dir. Out of the Life Inc.

Out of the Life Inc.’s executive director Jesse Maley could not be reached by reporters and a representative of Out of the Life Inc. claimed Maley was “out of the country.”

Despite numerous calls, emails and social media posts demanding the removal of the video from the public, the video remained publicized for several days.

After the story aired on KWTV News9, JohnTV’s Brian Bates contacted local high profile defense attorney Scott Adams and asked if he could help the Saunders family get the video taken down.

Adams, a longtime and frequent supporter of local anti-sex trafficking groups such as No Boundaries Int’l agreed to help.

On Friday KWTV News9 reported that Adams sent a cease-and-desist and takedown letter to Out of the Life Inc. and YouTube.

Adams told News9 that if the video was not removed he would file a civil lawsuit against the organization.

Adams also requested that Maley/Out of the Life Inc. formally apologize to the Saunders’ family for the pain and suffering their video has caused.

Within 24 hours of Adams’ demand letter, the video was removed from the organization’s YouTube channel and their GoFundMe page was deleted.

News9′s Lisa Monahan reports that authorities in the Lake Mary area are investigating the matter and state the organization could face criminal charges for their attempt to solicit money under false pretenses.

Authorities in Florida claim Out of the Life Inc. is not a registered or recognized non-profit in that a state as of Sept. of this year.

JohnTV was asked by Adams to download a copy of the video in question, before it was deleted, for use in a possible lawsuit.

Saunders’ murder remains unsolved and the investigation has been turned over to the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigations.

UPDATE:  (11/12/2013) On the day that JohnTV posted the article above, KWTV News9′s Lisa Monahan was finally contacted by Out of the Line Inc’s Executive Direct Jesse Maley. News9 ran an update story yesterday evening.

In that update, Maley claims the details they posted were actually about a client her organization has served and that she didn’t think it would be a big deal to randomly pick a photo from a ‘sex trafficking’ online search.

When asked claimed she had not considered it would be wrong to attribute a random picture to another person’s life story.

Maley initially claimed the video was produced in 2010 – but when confronted with the fact Carina Saunders wasn’t murdered until 2011, she retracted that assertion.

Maley also claims she removed the video as soon as she became aware of the problem – However, in reality the video remained online until she received a cease-and-desist letter from OKC attorney Scott Adams.

Maley claims she plans on writing a letter to the Saunders family (we’ll see).

11/12/2013 – Bethany, OK — Southern Nazarene University and Bethany First Church of the Nazarene have partnered to sponsor ‘Night of Redemption,’ a concert and more to raise awareness and benefit a local ministry dedicated to those lost to prostitution and/or human trafficking.

The public event is tonight (11/12/2013) at 8 p.m. at Bethany First Church of the Nazarene - 6789 NW 39th Expy. Bethany, OK 73008

Tickets are $10 in advance and $12 at the door.

The night promises music by Christian recording artists the Charlie Hall Band, The City Harmonic, Royal Roal and Sean McDonald.

Also to appear is special guest speaker and best-selling author Bob Goff.

Goff is a well-known public speaker and the founder and CEO of Restore International. Goff is also author of the best-selling book “Love Does: Discover a Secretly Incredible Life in an Ordinary World.”

Eric Smith, vice president of campus ministry at SNU was instrumental in organizing this event that will benefit local non-profit No Boundaries International.

Smith, 23, expressed how SNU and Bethany First Church of the Nazarene wanted a way to help spread awareness of human sex trafficking while directly aiding those locally who have boots on the ground fighting for those without a voice.

All the funds raised will go directly to No Boundaries Int’l, an Edmond based non-profit dedicated to crossing any border to bring relief in the midst of extreme devastation while pointing to one, true rescuer.

Since 2011 NBI has focused much of its efforts and energy specifically to the devastation associated with prostitution and human sex trafficking in south Oklahoma City, NW Oklahoma City and Edmond.

NBI is a 100% volunteer organization with a full time staff of over a dozen dedicated missionaries that receive no administrative salaries – this means virtually every penny donated goes directly to programs and services.

Tonight’s concert is earmarked to equip a recently donated mobile food truck that will be used throughout the metro to raise awareness at public events and directly provide food and services to those in need (see KWTV News9′s story).

Kappa Kappa Psi & Tau Beta Sigma Nat’l Executive Director placed on leave after prostitution arrest

11/12/2013 – Stillwater, OK — The national executive director of the Kappa Kappa Psi fraternity and Tau Beta Sigma sorority has been placed on leave as a result of his recent prostitution related arrest in Stillwater.

Kappa Kappa Psi is described as a national honorary band fraternity.

Tau Beta Sigma is described as a co-educational national honorary band sorority dedicated to serving college and band programs.

As JohnTV previously reported, retired Lt. Col. Alan L. Bonner, 66, was one of 26 people arrested during a sting by the Stillwater Special Projects Unit and agents with the Oklahoma Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs (OBNDD).

The sting targeted online prostitution in an attempt to identify victims and perpetrators of human sex trafficking.

Five alleged pimps were taken into custody. The youngest individual arrested was a 19-year-old female, while Bonner was the oldest individual, according to police.

JohnTV previously identified Bonner in an article published on Saturday.

You can read Bonner’s bio at the link above.

Within hours of JohnTV posting Saturday’s article, Kappa Kappa Psi and Tau Beta Sigma posted the following identical messages to their organization’s Facebook pages…

Kappa Kappa Psi posting regarding Bonner's arrest.

Kappa Kappa Psi posting regarding Bonner’s arrest.

Later that same day, both organizations updated their posts on Bonner with the following…

Tau Beta Sigma posting regarding Bonner's arrest.

Tau Beta Sigma posting regarding Bonner’s arrest.

Both Facebook postings have been ‘shared’ at least 78 times and have initiated some rather heated discussions amongst members.

Despite some members calling for Bonner to be fired, the organizations are reporting that he has been placed on administrative leave with pay while, “…we allow the legal process to take its course…”

JohnTV hopes these organizations realize that if they plan on paying Bonner until this case is resolved in a court of law they could be on the hook for one to three years (the wheels of justice move slowly when defendants want them to).

Bonner has not yet been criminally charged and no additional details of his arrest have been released.

If Bonner is smart he has already lawyered up and has instructed his attorney to get this case either dropped, moved to city court or have the charges lowered to something like disorderly conduct.

JohnTV will continue to follow this case.

11/12/2013 – Brazil – A feature article published today on the MailOnline website gives readers glimpse into the horrific reality of child sex trafficking Brazil.

As published: “For British journalist Matt Roper, this chance meeting with Leliah was to change his life. He drove off along the BR-116 motorway, a merciless 2,700-mile stretch of road spearing up the coast of Brazil from Rio de Janerio to Fortaleza, in a state of profound shock.

Later he decided to investigate and write about the forgotten children who eke out a living on the Highway to Hell. 

And despite being a hardened news reporter, nothing had prepared him for the scale of depravity he was to uncover.”

FBI seeks identity of suspected child sexual predator

11/12/2013 – The Federal Bureau of Investigations is asking for the public’s help in identifying a man who they believe may be involved in child sexual abuse.

Today the FBI released photos and details of the man they are looking for. The images were taken from the Internet and enhanced and redacted by investigators.

Agents say there is little information to go by other than the man’s face and they hope someone will recognize him.

The FBI says there is no specific evidence linking the man to any particular state or region of the country.

It is believed that in at least one video he referred to himself as ‘Jimmy’ and spoke with a southern accent.

The FBI has labeled the man as ‘John Doe 27′ and he is described as a caucasian male in his 40′s or 50′s with dark hair, dark eyebrows, graying sideburns and male pattern baldness. The suspect also wears glasses and wears a ring on his right hand.

Another possible identifying image is a distinctive plaid chair seen in some of the evidence gathered by agents.

JohnDoe27 Chair

Initial images and videos of the unidentified adult male, John Doe 27, being photographed while engaging in sexually explicit activities with a child were first recorded by the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children in April of 2013.  They are still being circulated in numerous child pornography forums across the Internet.

Anyone who can help authorities locate the man is asked to call the toll free FBI tip line: 1-800-CALL-FBI.

This individual is being sought as part of the FBI’s Operation Rescue Me and Endangered Child Alert Program (ECAP) initiatives, both of which represent strategic partnerships between the FBI and the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.   Operation Rescue Me focuses on utilizing clues obtained through in-depth image analysis to identify the child victims depicted in child exploitation material, while ECAP seeks national and international media exposure of unknown adults (referred to as John/Jane Doe) who visibly display their faces and/or other distinguishing characteristics in association with child pornography images.

New Florida anti-prostitution law makes perfectly legal actions reason for arrest

$

11/14/2013 (updated 11/15/2013) – New Port Richey, FL — A city in Florida recently passed a law aimed at aiding police in arresting suspected prostitutes – critics say the law may be unconstitutional.

The New Port Richey city council unanimously passed a new ordinance last week that they claim will aid them in combating nuisance street prostitution along an infamous stretch of U.S. 19.

Effective immediately, law enforcement officers can now detain and arrest certain individuals for prostitution within city limits based on otherwise perfectly legal activities.

According to published reports, anyone within city limits who has previously been convicted of, pleaded no-contest to, or had adjudication withheld for a charge of prostitution may be arrested if they display three of any eight now prohibited actions. For example; A person takes flight or tries to conceal themselves upon the appearance of a law enforcement officer, gestures towards their breasts, groin or buttocks, inquires whether a potential ‘John’ is a law enforcement officer, repeatedly trying to stop or engage passers-by in conversation, trying to stop a vehicle by waving or other gestures, approaching a motorist, leaving with that person, returning to the same place and the repeating the pattern with a different person.

Violators of the new ordinance face up to 60 days in jail and a $500 fine. A second offense conviction can result in up to six-months in jail and a fine of up to $1,000.

Those in favor of the law claim it gives police more authority while reducing the need for expensive and resource intensive stings.

Critics point to other cities who’ve tried similar ordinances that, when challenged, were struck down as unconstitutional.

In a recent case that made the headlines, a Manhattan judge dismissed prostitution charges against a woman whose arrest was solely based on the fact the woman was wearing a pea-coat, tight fitting jeans, high heels and was talking to men in Midtown – no solicitation, no sex, no lewdness…. just fashion.

In her ruling Judge Felicia Mennin stated, “…Any current issue of a fashion magazine would display plenty of women similarly dressed. However, the choice of such outfit hardly demonstrates the wearer’s proclivity to engage in prostitution…”

JohnTV Thoughts: In general JohnTV does not support laws which criminalize otherwise legal behavior.

Certainly the actions listed above are often utilized by street prostitutes – but, and more importantly – those actions are 100% legal.

If these sorts of knee-jerk laws are allowed then where do we draw the line? If you’re in a bar drinking and you have car keys on you should police be allowed to go ahead and charge you with drunk driving?

If I’m taking photos of a federal building or bank should I be arrested for plotting a terrorist act or robbery?

Prostitution, in the eyes of the law, is a verb, not a noun. A person commits the crime of prostitution, they are not legally labeled a prostitute by the courts – despite how the public may see them. As such the crime of prostitution requires very specific elements of the crime for there to be an arrest and successful prosecution.

Furthermore, this law does absolutely nothing to address the cause(s) of prostitution and is 100% reactionary instead of preventative.

Women do not stop prostituting or being prostituted simply because the penalties are increased.

Laws like this are ripe for abuse by overzealous police who feel everyone is guilty its just a matter of figuring out what you’ve done.

11/18/2013 – San Antonio, TX — A Fort Worth man is behind bars on allegations he pimped a 15-year-old girl in Texas and Oklahoma City.

Henry D. Jackson, 38 (some reports describe him as 45), has been charged in San Antonio with sexual assault of a child and child sex trafficking.

The victim, now 18-years-old, is described as a teen who had runaway from home in 2010 and shortly thereafter was introduced to Jackson by another prostitute.

Jackson reportedly told the girl he would let her stay with him and would provide her with food and shelter.

According to court documents, Jackson took photos of the young girl and posted them online – advertising her as a 18 or 19 year old escort.

The allegations came to light in Dec. 2011 after the victim confided in a Bexar County juvenile probation officer.

The victim told investigators she was prostituted at least 100 times between 2010 and 2011 and that Jackson sexually assaulted her on a daily basis.

The girl said she and another female were prostituted in San Antonio, Houston, Dallas, Austin and Oklahoma City.

Jackson allegedly threatened the girl with physical violence and rape is she did not earn her daily quota.

The girl had reportedly been arrested previously by Houston Vice in 2010 but did not disclose her situation to law enforcement.

Jackson’s is being held on a $60,000 bond.

11/18/2013 – OKC, OK — An Oklahoma City man has been charged with public lewdness related to a prostitution video captured by JohnTV in August.

Efren M. Gonzales, 49, was charged with misdemeanor ‘prostitution, engaging in an act of lewdness’ on Oct. 30.

Gonzales was taped by JohnTV.com’s own Video Vigilante Brian Bates on Aug. 17, after he picked up a known street prostitute around SW 43 and S. Robinson Ave.

Gonzales then took the woman to the parking lot of the Greystone Apartments at 4900 S. Walker Ave. – a location often utilized by S. Robinson street prostitutes and their ‘Johns.’

Once there, the two moved to the back of Gonzales’ SUV and began engaging in sexual activity.

Bates approached the white SUV, opened the door and confronted Gonzales and the woman.

Gonzales then returned to the driver’s seat and drove away.

Bates posted the resulting video to the JohnTV YouTube Channel.

Within hours a former S. Robinson street prostitute emailed JohnTV with the identity of the ‘John’ and claimed he was Gonzales.

Bates turned over a copy of the video and the identifying email to Oklahoma City Vice, who performed an investigation and requested criminal charged to be filed.

On Oct. 31 a warrant was issued for Gonzales’ arrest.

Gonzales made his first court appearance on Nov. 7 and is scheduled to return to court on Dec. 5.

Gonzales was released from custody on a $500 bond.

No other criminal history could be readily located for Gonzales.

JohnTV will continue to follow this case.

11/19/2013 – Oklahoma — A Oklahoma prostitute apparently had a ‘date’ with a United Parcel Service (UPS) driver and just couldn’t wait to post the resulting photographs online.

We’ve all heard the marketing slogan, “What can brown do for you?” – well, apparently they can have sex in a truck full of your holiday gift giving…..

Yesterday morning a woman, who identifies herself as ‘Mary Ann,’ posted a bear-chested selfie in a UPS shirt in the back of a UPS delivery truck with the following caption…

Redacted version of photo posted by alleged Internet prostitute in a UPS delivery truck.

Redacted version of photo posted by alleged Internet prostitute in a UPS delivery truck.

Because here at JohnTV our sources, snitches, moles and R&D are on alert 24/7 we can, with a reasonable amount of certainty, say we have identified ‘Mary Ann’ as a previously charged (and still on probation) prostitute named Tiffany Fay(e) Hawkins, 38, of Chickasha.

Hawkins, who is apparently a HBO ‘Hung’ fan and calls herself a ‘Happiness Consultant,’ was previously arrested, and subsequently criminally charged in Oklahoma County, with felony computer crimes and offering to engage in prostitution.

Tiffany F. Hawkins, aka 'Tiffany Cums' or 'Mary Ann'

Tiffany F. Hawkins, aka ‘Tiffany Cums’ or ‘Mary Ann’

According to court records, Hawkins was stung by Oklahoma City Vice on Jan. 30, 2012 but charges were not filed until Jul. of that same year.

The case was wrapped up in Jan. of this year and Hawkins was given a deferred sentence for both counts and placed on supervised probation until Jan. of 2018.

Apparently ‘supervision by the Oklahoma County District Attorney’s Office’ is a misnomer and should be reworded to simply state Hawkins is required to send the DA’s office $40/month for the next five years for no real reason (or reassurances to the public) whatsoever.

Hawkins, who prior to her 2012 arrest went by the much more colorful alias ‘Tiffany Cums,’ maintains a website with photos, reviews, rates and her schedule…. Which, if her UPS photo caption is accurate, would indicate she was in Oklahoma City on the day UPS made its ‘special delivery.’

Speaking of…. it seems Hawkins did more than show her dangly bits while on her UPS field trip and allegedly ventured into some posed fellatio as indicated in this followup online post…

Mary Ann Followup post 01 Prostitute

For those not in the know ‘BBBJCOF’ stands for (WARNING, pretty graphic, but you are reading a prostitution blog…)Bare Back Blow Job, Cum On Face.

Probably won’t be seeing any of those pics at the UPS employee Christmas party slide show. Though we have a feeling they will most likely be texted amongst fellow drivers and some super secret UPS Investigations Unit.

Speaking of – JohnTV has already been contacted by administrators with UPS (after we tweeted a teaser to this story) and it appears they are, like their driver, not taking this lying down.

Apparently photos forwarded to UPS, along with GPS data will be used to determine who was behind the wheel and the camera when the little game of post office went down.

Personally, JohnTV doesn’t take a stand against prostitution that is 100% consensual, unorganized and behind closed doors (yea, rolling delivery truck doors count – unless its a Lowe’s delivery truck). BUT, when a prostitute on probation and a working stiff (pun definitely intended) risk so much by posting their antics publicly, then we simply can’t resist ‘poking some fun.’

FYI – In the ad below Hawkins refers to herself as a late 30′s MILF – Based on her photos we’re thinking  ”MILF” to her customers stands for Moment I’d Like to Forget.

11/20/2013 – Oklahoma City, OK — A Russian hooker from LA with a bizarre background of pretending to fight human trafficking, allegations of impersonating a U.S. Army major and a habit of having her picture taken with Hollywood celebrities was arrested last night in Oklahoma City for online prostitution.

According to police records, Konia Aleksandrovna Prinster, aka ‘Russian Emma,’ and ‘Laniey Prinster,’ was taken into custody and booked into the Oklahoma County Jail just before 11 p.m. last night.

Prinster, 25, is currently being held on complaints of felony computer crimes and offering to engage in prostitution.

Not much is known about the details of Prinster’s arrest – JohnTV SPECULATES that Oklahoma City vice responded to her ad on Backpage.com (see ad at bottom of article) and that when she agreed to sex for cash she was arrested – most likely at a hotel along S. Meridian or near the NW Expressway in Oklahoma City. As soon as the report or affidavit are released we will post it online.

Prinster as she appears on social media.

Prinster apparently gave police a Scottsdale, AZ address, but a quick online search shows the address comes back to a shopping mall.

Speaking of online searches, if JohnTV gave an award for the most entertaining Googled hooker in the metro it would undoubtedly go to Prinster.

Seriously, Goggle her yourself (no pun intended). The results are a mishmash of wishful thinking, photos with celebrities, resumes straight out of fantasyland, and mugshots from around the globe.

We’re not even sure where to start…..

Prinster describes herself as “a supermodel, activist and most of all a philanthropist.”

According to her LinkedIn profile, Prinster claims to be “an aspiring model and web designer” out of Los Angeles and formerly in non-profit organization management and fundraising for Stop the Traffik – “...a global movement of individuals, communities and organisations fighting to prevent human trafficking around the world.”

Prinster also boasts real estate sales experience, architecture and web design.

This past july was a busy month for Prinster, according to her self-published press releases; She proclaimed herself ‘a huge deal‘ and even started a new modeling agency!

When Prinster isn’t modeling on the runaway or giving away millions of dollars (she claims to be the daughter of a Russian billionaire tycoon), she likes to pose for pictures….. lots and lots of pictures….

But, photos with A-listers aren’t the only photos Prinster has a habit of posing for – it seems she also has a flair for the county jail selfie.

Prinster’s most notable arrest was in 2010 when she reportedly impersonated a U.S. Army major in an attempt to skip out on a cheap hotel bill.

According to a news story, Prinster stayed two nights at the Sleep Inn in Louisville, KY and left without paying the $118 tab.

When sheriff’s deputies confronted Prinster, she handed them a fake U.S. Army government identification card that identified her as an Army major.

When the fake credentials didn’t work, this daughter of a billionaire tycoon and ‘supermodel’ locked herself inside a hotel bathroom.

If you haven’t figured it out by now, Prinster is not only a prostitute but also a scam artist.  She creates bogus press releases, social media profiles and has her photo taken with celebrities all in an attempt to create a smoke screen – giving herself credibility while at the same time overshadowing her many brushes with the law.

Prinster doesn’t work alone. According to several sources, Prinster’s boyfriend/husband/handler/rep/pimp/whatever is a man named Taquarius Ford.

Ford describes himself on his website and his LinkedIn profile as “a American Entrepreneur and Philanthropist” that has “produced feature films, written books and helped path [sic] the way for new up and coming talent.”

Others have a different take on Ford – A March 2013 RipOffReport claims Ford and Prinster scammed a couple out of thousands of dollars when they allegedly rented them a condo they didn’t actually own.

July and Aug. were a big months for Ford too. Apparently Ford (a millionaire of course) started a new music agency, wrote his Hollywood tell all memoirs, launched a new modeling campaign, gave away a new Bentley, started a new PR company, and created over 100 new jobs in LA.

But don’t go away thinking Ford is just some selfish con, he’s apparently willing to share his secret to making millions through his websites translatewealth.com, TaquariusFord.org and YouTube channel.

And, of course, when Ford’s not making movies, writing books or giving away his millions, he too likes to pose with celebrities (who most likely don’t even have a clue what his name is)…

Even though Prinster and Ford like to publicly proclaim their wealth, it took almost 24-hours for Prinster to be bailed out of jail on a $2,500 bond (which means paying only $250 to a local bondsman).

If you know where Prinster and Ford are staying in OKC and/or what they are driving, please send us a message in the comment section below (you can remain anonymous).

JohnTV will continue to follow this case.

FYI, if you want to let Ford know what you think of him, feel free to tweet him @TDiddyFord - his last Tweet was the day before Prinster was arrested.

11/24/2013 – Vancouver, Wash. — Vancouver police found themselves overwhelmed by the number of men seeking sex in reply to a bogus ad they placed online during a recent sting.

According to published reports, last Friday afternoon detectives placed an undercover advertisement in the ‘escort’ section of their local Backpage.com website.

The ‘Johns’ who responded to the ad were directed to a local hotel and arrested after soliciting sex from an undercover officer.

A police spokesperson reported that at times the nine hour sting (noon to 9 p.m.) was receiving so many incoming telephone calls from ‘Johns’ that they were unable to keep pace with them and coordinate enough time between arrests

In the end 15 alleged ‘Johns’ were taken into custody, ranging in ages from 22 to 57 years old.

The ‘Johns’ arrested have been identified as;

  1. David R. Coley, 39
  2. Shani U. Asberry, 38
  3. Wayne E. Hennerty, 47
  4. Daniel C. Quattlebaum, 25
  5. James R. Boal, 57
  6. Charles J. Crider, 36
  7. Alvin N. Chand, 33
  8. Doyle C. Jones, 42

  10. Jean M. Fouriquie, 44
  11. David E. Waldow, 52
  12. Derrick S. Girlchrist, 29
  13. Hakeem A. Shinaba, 34
  14. Michael A. Anderson, 32
  15. Devin R. Parks, 35.

All 15 were reportedly taken to the Clark County Jail on a complaint of attempting to patronize a prostitute, cited and released.

11/26/2013 – OKC, OK — JohnTV’s Brian Bates was interviewed last night by a local TV news station regarding the alleged lewd pictures posted online last week by a Chickasha Internet prostitute.

As previously reported, last Wednesday a woman who goes by the online names ‘Tiffany Cums’ and ‘Mary Ann’ published a photo to a website dedicated to encouraging prostitution (see original post below). In that photo, ‘Mary Ann,’ who has been identified by JohnTV as Tiffany F. Hawkins, 38, is seen bare chested in the back of a UPS delivery truck wearing a company uniform.

Hawkins described the photo as having been taken the day before. Hawkins also promoted the fact that additional and more explicit photos had been posted to the members section of her website.

After posting our original article, JohnTV was contacted by representatives of UPS both nationally and locally.

Last night KWTV News Channel 9′s Lacie Lowry interviewed Bates regarding the incident.

You can see the interview yourself on KWTV’s website.
