Prostitutes Randolph
Law enforcement agencies have conducted multiple operations targeting prostitution and human trafficking. In June 2025, Operation END-OHHT resulted in 132 arrests. Sting operations, like one in May 2022 labeled ‘Operation Holiday Blues’, led to 21 arrests for drug and prostitution offenses. Undercover operations, including police posing as sex workers, have also been used, resulting in arrests like the 186 Johns charged in 2008. Several individuals named Randolph have faced related charges. In 2015, a Randolph, MA woman was arrested for advertising sexual services online. That same month, a Randolph home invasion was investigated for a possible connection to a prostitution scheme. By 2025, a Randolph man was convicted and sentenced to state prison for human trafficking and deriving support from prostitution. Another Randolph man, Ryan Duntin, 33, was convicted for providing prostitutes along the I-95 corridor. Randolph Lewis, 33, of Arlington, TX, was arrested in Southfield, MI on human trafficking and prostitution charges. A Cleveland pastor, Dr. Randolph Brown, 64, faced a $100,000 bond after being charged with compelling prostitution in 2025.
Historical Context and Regional Cases
Historically, prostitution has been documented in various contexts. Dodge City, Kansas, known as the “Queen of the Cow Towns,” had a notable past with prostitution, sometimes involving licensing. Historian Randolph Trumbach researched 18th-century London prostitution extensively, arguing it was part of a thriving gay male subculture. His work explores the connection between male sodomy and female prostitution during the Enlightenment. Artifacts like a “prostitute’s box” from 19th-century Dodge City exist. Specific locations like Kutaisi, Georgia, frequently appear in relation to escort advertisements and services online. Randolph County, NC, saw arrests at a massage parlor for prostitution-related offenses in May 2024. Legal cases, such as Randolph v. People (2025) in Colorado, have clarified requirements for charges like soliciting for child prostitution.
Trafficking Concerns and Public Resources
Human trafficking remains a serious concern. Task forces, like the Northeast Ohio Human Trafficking Task Force, actively seek public assistance. Cases involve severe exploitation, such as victims being beaten to the point clients refused them. Sentences can be significant; a Wilmington man received 240 months for interstate prostitution violations. Resources and warnings exist. Advisories caution against soliciting street prostitution due to risks like arrest or scams. Sex offender registries, like the one in Randolph County, GA, provide public information. Organizations offer help to trafficking victims.
