男子性贩运18岁少女并反复殴打鞭打 在联邦法院被判260个月监禁
美国司法部加州南区联邦检察官办公室宣布，27 岁的 Sedrick Shamall Jackson 在位于加利福尼亚州圣迭戈县 San Diego 的联邦法院被判处 260 个月（21 年 8 个月）监禁。他来自密歇根州 Detroit，涉案罪名是合谋以武力、欺诈和胁迫手段实施性贩运，案件号 25-cr-4580-TWR。
联邦检察官 Adam Gordon 表示：「使用恐惧、操纵和暴行控制受害人的人口贩运者，可以预期面临漫长的联邦监禁刑期。」国土安全调查局（Homeland Security Investigations，HSI）圣迭戈办公室负责人 Kevin Murphy 表示，这一判决让 Jackson 为其行为负责，执法部门将继续追查剥削和虐待受害人的人。
据法庭文件与庭上证据，Jackson 在受害人 18 岁时招募她，很快建立起控制关系并发展为商业性剥削：他教她如何卖淫，规定她在哪里、如何工作，控制她通过商业性行为获得的全部收入，并在她未能满足其要求时反复施以暴力。他还把受害人带到内华达州、加利福尼亚州和亚利桑那州多地，从她的商业性行为中牟利，控制她的住处、工作地点、收费价格和在线招嫖广告。
法庭记录显示，Jackson 多次殴打受害人，包括拳打、脚踢和鞭打，有时持续数日，造成严重伤害，施暴同时伴有心理操纵，以维持控制、阻止她离开。2024 年 8 月 29 日，受害人逃离 Jackson，向 National City 警察局报案称自己遭到性贩运；此后 Jackson 仍试图通过电话、操纵和威胁继续控制她。证据还显示，受害人后来回到他身边后，他继续施暴；2025 年 10 月，受害人在 Denver 一处公寓再遭长时间殴打后逃出，当时她没有鞋、手机和身份证件，拨打 911 求助，赶到现场的警员记录了与她所述虐待相符的大面积伤情。
法官 Robinson 在量刑时判处了高于联邦量刑指引建议幅度的刑期，理由包括受害人年轻、被告反复实施极端暴力、受害人遭受严重身体伤害，以及 Jackson 此前有针对女性的暴力犯罪前科。涉案的合谋性贩运罪名法定最高刑为终身监禁和最高 1,000 万美元罚款。
此案由国土安全调查局圣迭戈办公室牵头，圣迭戈县警长办公室、HSI 的 Denver 与 Las Vegas 办公室、洛杉矶县警长部门、Las Vegas 大都会警察局、Denver 警察局等多家机构参与调查，是加州南区联邦检察官办公室 2025 年 4 月设立的特别受害人组（Special Victims Unit）的工作成果之一。
Man Sentenced to 260 Months for Sex Trafficking an 18-Year-Old Through Force and Repeated Beatings
The U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of California announced that Sedrick Shamall Jackson, 27, of Detroit, Michigan, was sentenced in federal court in San Diego, San Diego County, California, to 260 months in prison — 21 years and eight months — for conspiracy to commit sex trafficking by force, fraud and coercion, in case number 25-cr-4580-TWR.
"Human traffickers who use fear, manipulation, and brutality to control their victims can expect lengthy federal prison sentences," said U.S. Attorney Adam Gordon. Kevin Murphy, Special Agent in Charge of Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) in San Diego, said the sentence holds Jackson accountable and that law enforcement partners will continue to pursue those who exploit and brutalize victims.
According to court documents and evidence presented to the court, Jackson recruited the victim when she was 18 years old and quickly established a controlling relationship that evolved into commercial sexual exploitation. He taught her how to engage in prostitution, dictated where and how she worked, controlled all of the earnings from her commercial sex acts, and subjected her to repeated physical violence when she failed to meet his demands. He transported her across Nevada, California and Arizona, profiting from her commercial sex acts, and controlled where she lived, where she worked, the prices she charged and how she advertised online.
Court records describe numerous instances in which Jackson punched, kicked, whipped and otherwise abused the victim, sometimes for days, causing significant injuries, accompanied by psychological manipulation designed to maintain control and discourage her from leaving. On August 29, 2024, the victim fled and reported to the National City Police Department that she was being sex trafficked; even after she sought help, Jackson continued attempting to control her through phone calls, manipulation and threats. Evidence at sentencing also showed the abuse continued after she later returned to him: in October 2025, the victim escaped from an apartment in Denver after another prolonged assault, fleeing without shoes, a phone or identification and calling 911, and responding officers documented extensive injuries consistent with the abuse she described.
In imposing a sentence above the advisory federal sentencing guidelines range, Judge Robinson cited the victim's youth, the extreme and repeated violence inflicted upon her, the serious bodily injuries she suffered, and Jackson's criminal history, including prior convictions involving violent offenses against women. The conspiracy charge carries a statutory maximum of life in prison and a fine of up to $10 million.
The case was investigated by HSI San Diego with the San Diego Sheriff's Office, HSI Denver and HSI Las Vegas, the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, the Las Vegas Metro Police Department, the Denver Police Department and other partners, as part of the work of the Southern District of California's Special Victims Unit, formed in April 2025.
