Summary
Miami police pulled off a jaw-dropping human trafficking sting right before the World Cup, arresting three men who thought they were booking underage sex encounters—only to get cuffed instead. Xavier Lopez, a 30-year-old labor organizer and congressional institute VP, paid $400 for what he believed was a half-hour with two teens. Dominick Munoz, 23, a bank teller, paid $650 and was so shaken he begged to work with cops and tried to self-represent in court—only to be told he needed a lawyer facing life behind bars. Eighteen-year-old Alain Pachecho was just dropped off at the scene. All three face severe charges, with no bond granted. It’s a chilling reminder of the hidden darkness beneath Miami’s World Cup spotlight. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
