Acting as the girl's pimp, Jackson arranged for her to perform sex acts to repay an alleged debt to Jackson. Jackson sent the juvenile to a Miami hotel room in response to a call for one or more prostitutes. Unbeknownst to Jackson, undercover City of Miami Police Department detectives had made the call. Shortly after the minor arrived at the designated room, the detectives detained her. The girl explained to the detectives that she was 17 and had been held captive.

Montavius Rakeem Postell, 20, and Boby Louis, 23, both of Orlando, are wanted in a case involving the abduction of a 15-year-old girl from the Universal Studios area in Orlando. Ten others (named below) were arrested in connection with this case. The girl was abducted, then forced into prostitution in Miami. The girl had run away from a group home with a friend and, after meeting some men on a bus, was soon transported to Miami-Dade and forced to work as a prostitute. The unidentified 15-year-old and a female friend of the same age escaped from a group home in Highlands County. The two ended up in Orlando and eventually at Universal Studio's CityWalk. On a bus ride back from the theme park's mall area, the girls met a couple of men and agreed to go home with them for a good time. Police say the girls drank alcohol, smoked marijuana, and engaged in sex with the men. The good time turned terrifying, though. The girls were taken to an abandoned warehouse where six men raped one of the girls, while the other was raped by two men and then forced into prostitution in Miami. According to the Orlando Sentinel, the others arrested in connection with this case were: • Guytembert Garcon, 23, of Orlando, who is on probation for a 2006 conviction for lewd or lascivious battery on a person between 12 and 15 years old • Olgens Alcide, 22, of Orlando, who is on probation for a 2009 conviction for armed robbery • John Peter Henry, 27, of Miami, who was released from prison in 2009 after serving a 13-month sentence for selling cocaine. • Lachristophe (also spelled "Lachristoph") Smith, 29, of Orlando, who was released from prison in 2006 after serving about three years for burglary, grand theft, and selling marijuana. • Luc Louidor, 25, of Orlando. • Brothers Leo David, 30, and Rodney David, 26, both of Orlando • Shayne Parsons, 25, of Orlando. • Martha Wilson, 23, of Orlando, was arrested on a charge of interference with custody; investigators say she allowed some of the sexual activity to occur at her home. • Craig Golden, 26, of Orlando. All arrested persons/suspects are presumed innocent until proven guilty.
