FOX 5 Atlanta - A Carrollton woman was arrested after police said she brought four teen girls into sexual servitude. It started when Carrollton Police responded to a Dollar General store Saturday morning on a call of two teen girls shoplifting. In the process, officers learned the girls were two of the four teen girls who had run away from Kidspeace, a foster care facility in Bowden about a dozen miles away the day before. Carrollton Police told FOX 5 News the girls walked to a nearby gas station where they met someone who took them to a party where they met the woman that would place them into sexual servitude.
Cole, with the Carrollton Police Department. Captain Cole said that individual is year-old Shanice Goodwin who is behind bars on charges of pimping and human trafficking. He said directly from the party Goodwin brought the four girls, two age 14 and a year-old and year-old to a room at a motel behind the Dollar General store then starting preparing them to serve Johns, customers.
Angel Daniel, who lives at another motel near the Dollar General store said she knows Goodwin and had heard of her arrest on social media.
Police said it appears at least one John paid for sex with one of the teen girls. Investigators are thankful the two girls were busted for shoplifting a day after they ran away before the group could be victimized further. Captain Cole said more arrests are expected. He also said one of the supposed Johns has been identified as Clifford Pruitt.
Police are asking him to turn himself in or face arrest.
