Justine Alex Reisdorf, a 19-year-old Burnsville woman. Her indictment alleges that between November 2006 and March 2007, Reisdorf operated a prostitution ring. Court documents stated that Reisdorf knowingly employed female students under the age of 18 from Minnesota School District 191 to serve as prostitutes for that business. Reisdorf’s operation was advertised on the Internet, specifically through listings on Craigslist.com. Those listings advertised both adult and minor prostitution services and displayed photographs of the females, along with available services and prices.

Response & intervention
This case was the result of an investigation by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Eagan Police Department. Assistant United States Attorney Erica H. MacDonald prosecuted the case.
In April 2007, a subpoena was served on Craig’s List, Inc., seeking the identity of the person who placed those listings, and police determined it was Reisdorf. During a search of Reisdorf’s residence, police found items indicative of a prostitution operation, including names and telephone numbers. Reisdorf was sentenced to 60-months imprisonment, to be followed by a three-year term of supervised release.
