Child Sex Trafficker Jimall Dawn Brown Sentenced to Years in Prison for Forcing Minor into Prostitution

A Boston man was sentenced on July 22nd in federal court in Boston for trafficking a minor for sex and persuading and coercing multiple women to travel across state lines to engage in prostitution.

Jimall Dawn Brown, 35, was sentenced by U.S. District Court Judge Leo T. Sorokin to 135 months in prison, followed by five years of supervised release. In April 2024, Brown pleaded guilty to one count of sex trafficking of a minor, one count of transporting an individual in interstate commerce with the intent that they engage in prostitution, and two counts of persuading and coercing an individual to travel in interstate commerce to engage in prostitution.

“Jimall Brown exploited, trafficked and abused three young women, including a child, for his own financial gain. It was imperative FBI Boston’s Child Exploitation – Human Trafficking Task Force swiftly take him “off the street,” said Jodi Cohen, Special Agent in Charge of the FBI Boston Division. “Unequivocally, our communities are safer with Brown behind bars, locked away where he can’t victimise anyone else.”

In 2022, Brown trafficked a 17-year-old, identified as Victim 1, to engage in commercial sex acts. He first met the victim, who was living outside Massachusetts, on social media and convinced her to fly to Boston with promises of a “better lifestyle.”

Brown posted advertisements of Victim 1 online and arranged “dates” for Victim 1 to have sex in exchange for money. Brown set the pricing for the commercial sex acts she engaged in, for which he collected all of the money. Brown transported Victim 1 to Georgia and later to Nevada, again arranging for her to engage in commercial sex in those locations and keeping all the money.

In March 2019, Brown persuaded and coerced another woman, identified as Victim 2, to travel from Connecticut to Massachusetts to engage in prostitution. He met her in Connecticut and told her she had potential and that he could provide a better, luxurious life for her if she came to Boston, where he lived. Victim 2 came to Massachusetts, and Brown posted online advertisements containing photos of Victim 2 on commercial sex websites. Victim 2 engaged in commercial sex and was required to give all the money she made to Brown.

In May 2016, Brown persuaded and coerced a different woman, identified as Victim 3, to travel from Pennsylvania to Massachusetts to engage in prostitution. He contacted Victim 3 on social media and told her that she was beautiful, that he had a modelling agency and that he wanted to work with her. Brown said he would pay for her plane ticket to Boston and provide everything once she arrived.

Victim 3 travelled by plane from Pennsylvania to Massachusetts. After she arrived, Brown took photos of her, purportedly for modelling, but instead, he posted them on websites advertising commercial sex. Brown then coerced and forced Victim 3 to engage in commercial sex in Massachusetts and required her to give him all the money.
