According to the District Attorney’s Office and Clovis Police who helped with the investigation, 23-year-old Alexis Diaz also tried to prevent a witness from reporting a sex trafficking crime.

Diaz, officials say, was involved in the recruitment of victims, transportation, scheduling, and collecting the money.
