A Man Has Been Sentenced to 21 Years in Prison for Sex Trafficking

An Everett pimp with a violent history must serve 21 years behind bars for sex trafficking, a King County judge ruled this week.

Bernard Gordon, 33, profited off illicit sex workers in the Seattle area, according to records filed in King County Superior Court in Seattle.

After a trial that lasted five weeks, a jury found Gordon guilty in April of human trafficking, promoting prostitution and leading organized crime, the Daily Herald reported.
