BUFFALO — A 28-year-old Buffalo man pleaded guilty on Thursday to a total of nine charges of promoting prostitution — five in the second-degree and four in the third-degree.
According to Acting Erie County District Attorney Michael J. Flaherty, Jr. Randon Moultrie was charged following a months-long investigation into a prostitution enterprise run by Moultrie, who used adult Internet sites and social media to solicit patrons for the women he was promoting, often using motel rooms in Amherst and Tonawanda as venues for his illicit enterprise. Moultrie exploited multiple women for his own financial gain, including a 14-year-old and an 18-year-old.
The investigation was coordinated through the Joint Human Trafficking Task Force, composed of members of US Attorney’s Office, the Erie County District Attorney’s Office, and federal and local law enforcement agencies.
Moultrie faces a maximum of 20 years in prison when he is sentenced by Justice Buscaglia on Aug. 3.
