Police arrested an Atlantic City woman on charges of human trafficking after she allegedly pimped out other women.
Alicia Stewart of the Waterside Building in Atlantic city was arrested on charges of human trafficking and promoting prostitution, with additional charges pending, according to authorities.
Among the women Stewart was pimping out for sex were two Atlantic City high School students, police say.
Stewart’s arrest followed a month-long joint investigation by the newly formed federal task force targeting child prostitution and human trafficking cases called the South Jersey Regional Innocence Lost Task Force.
“Arrests like this is why the Atlantic County Sheriff’s Office committed officers to participate in this task force,” Atlantic County Sheriff Frank Balles said in a press release.
