[redqueen]

An Irving high school student drugged a 15-year-old classmate for several days and forced her to have sex with men who gave him drugs and money in exchange, police said Tuesday.

Nimitz High School student Travis Lekas, 17, is also accused of trying to recruit other students from Nimitz and Bowie Middle School to engage in prostitution. Police said they are working to determine whether Lekas had other victims.

Lekas, who was arrested at his home Monday, faces one count of human trafficking of a minor, one count of compelling prostitution and one count of sexual performance by a child. He is being held in the Irving City Jail with bail set at $175,000.

1. Risky Business?

Wonder where Travis got his bright idea?

3. The oldest profession

Sex sells. I don't believe this is anything new, but I do believe more of it is being exposed, especially in the military.

4. How is he not being charged with rape?

Try him as an adult, lock him up, throw away the key.

Filth on two feet.

5. I find the lack of reaction sad.

If he had taken pictures and posted them online, maybe then there would be more outrage.

Several days... how many men raped this girl...

6. This is the reality of all pimps, of what sex trafficking is.

And this is what the generic "increased demand" causes when it comes from the assholes who buy a woman so they can use her body as a masturbatory aid.
