This is what the Bronx District Attorney Robert Johnson explains. This is the very first time in Bronx County that there has been an online-related conviction like this.

Internet prostitution tales

Based on court documents, a 19-year-old woman testified that she came to the Bronx with her 3-year-old child under the impression that she would be living with Campbell, with whom she’d become romantically entangled. Campbell’s cousin rented an apartment, Daniel Ebron, where she had been moved to and told her child would be hurt or killed so she had been then “forced to engage in prostitution”. On Craigslist Albany, she ended up working as a prostitute. Eventually she got away with her son and ran. An additional time Campbell kidnapped an 18 year old and 19 year old. They were raped supposedly.
