Jesse Marks was convicted of drugging and trafficking hundreds of women over two decades near Camp Lejeune in North Carolina.
A Marine veteran who drugged and prostituted hundreds of women over the past two decades has been sentenced to 30 years in prison, according to the U.S. Justice Department.
Jesse Gabriel Marks, 38, trafficked as many as 600 women after getting them hooked on narcotics near Camp Lejeune in North Carolina, authorities said.
Marks preyed on women and at least one minor. “He used drugs, including heroin and methamphetamine, to keep them dependent on and prostituting for him,” said the U.S. Attorney's Office in a statement.
