Man Pleads Guilty to Holding up to 12 Women as Sex Slaves in Cincinnati Home

A man pleaded guilty on Friday to keeping women imprisoned in his home for up to two years and forcing them to work as prostitutes.

Christopher Hisle, 45, was arrested on 8 April, while driving a woman between Cincinnati and Louisville to engage in prostitution at a nearby motel, said the US Attorney for the Western District of Kentucky in a statement.

A subsequent investigation found that Hisle trapped the women in his home, forcing them into sex work. Hisle had at least 12 victims. Their ages have not been disclosed.

"This defendant preyed on vulnerable young victims and cruelly exploited them for his profit," Assistant Attorney General Vanita Gupta said in the release.
