30. UPDATE: Joey The Player: The US vs Jose Torres
All In A Day's (Sex) Work - A podcast by Blair Hopkins
Categories:
In February 2020, prolific serial rapist and predator Jose Torres, AKA "Joey The Player" was arrested in Boston, MA and charged in federal court with Coercion and Enticement. Torres is alleged to have been luring sex workers across state lines - then raping and robbing them - for over a decade. He awaits trial in New Jersey. On October 28th, 2020, there was another major development. Federal law enforcement NEEDS OUR HELP to build the strongest possible case against this violent threat to the community. If you or anyone you know have information about, or have had an encounter with Jose Torres, AKA "Joey The Player", contact FBI agent Mike Scimeca at (862) 849-9163, or email him at [email protected].
