德州男子被起诉涉性贩运与妨碍司法:被指18年间强迫五名女子从事商业性交易

美国司法部11月5日宣布,德克萨斯州北区联邦大陪审团已递交一份八项罪名的替代起诉书,起诉居住在德克萨斯州达拉斯县 DeSoto 市的39岁男子 Felix Omoruyi,罪名包括以暴力、欺诈或胁迫手段进行性贩运、贩运未成年人及其他相关罪名。
根据法庭文件,2007年12月至2025年11月间,Omoruyi 在德克萨斯州及其他地方强迫五名成年女子从事商业性交易、为自己牟利。司法部称,Omoruyi 于2025年11月依最初起诉被捕后,还涉嫌以腐败手段试图销毁证据、妨碍并干扰对自己的起诉,包括联系受害人与证人以影响其陈述与证词。
Omoruyi 被控的罪名包括以暴力、欺诈或胁迫手段进行性贩运、贩运未成年人、企图销毁、篡改或隐匿文件或物品,以及妨碍和干扰性贩运法律的执行。若以暴力、欺诈或胁迫手段进行性贩运罪名成立,他将面临最低15年、最高终身监禁,并须强制赔偿受害人。
此案由国土安全调查局(HSI)新英格兰外地办公室调查,HSI Dallas 办公室与 Barnstable 警察局协助。司法部刑事司助理部长 A. Tysen Duva、德克萨斯州北区联邦检察官 Ryan R. Raybould 与 HSI 新英格兰代理特别探员主管 Jeffrey A. Grimming 宣布了起诉。
起诉书仅为指控,被告在法庭上被证明有罪之前均被推定无罪。

Texas Man Indicted for Sex Trafficking and Obstruction Offenses
The Justice Department announced on November 5 that a federal grand jury in the Northern District of Texas has returned an eight-count superseding indictment charging Felix Omoruyi, 39, of DeSoto, in Dallas County, Texas, with sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion, sex trafficking of a minor, and related charges.
According to court documents, from December 2007 through November 2025, Omoruyi compelled five adult women to perform commercial sex acts in Texas and elsewhere for his financial benefit. After he was arrested on the initial indictment in November 2025, he also allegedly corruptly attempted to destroy evidence and obstruct and interfere with his prosecution by contacting victims and witnesses to influence their statements and testimony.
Omoruyi is charged with sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion; sex trafficking of a minor; attempt to destroy, alter, or conceal a document or object; and obstruction and interference with the enforcement of the sex trafficking statute. If convicted of sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion, he faces a minimum penalty of 15 years in prison and a maximum of life in prison, along with mandatory restitution.
The HSI New England Field Office is investigating the case with assistance from HSI Dallas and the Barnstable Police Department. Assistant Attorney General A. Tysen Duva of the Criminal Division, U.S. Attorney Ryan R. Raybould for the Northern District of Texas, and Acting Special Agent in Charge Jeffrey A. Grimming of HSI New England announced the indictment.
An indictment is merely an allegation. All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
