Randolph 'Randy' Brown, 64, and Joyce Richmond, 21, were taken into custody Tuesday and hit with multiple felony charges in relation to the alleged exploitation of teenagers.
An Ohio pastor who previously worked as chaplain for a youth center was arrested this week on suspicion of human trafficking-related crimes, authorities say.
"Indictments of coordinated operations like this don't happen accidentally," AG Yost said in a media release."It's the great work of our task force and partners in law enforcement, as well as [the] prosecutor office who will now ensure that these traffickers stay behind bars." According to his church biography page, Brown previously served as owner of Randy's Gospel Music and worked as a chaplain for the Hudson Youth Development Center.
