BALTIMORE — Federal prosecutors said four men have been indicted for running a sex trafficking business out of a Millersville, Md., apartment.

Craig Corey, 23, a soldier who lives on Fort Meade, was arrested Tuesday.

Prosecutors say Corey and 21-year-old Robert Harris, 22-year-old Richard Johnson and 22-year-old Jacob Tyler, all of Chillicothe, Ohio, conspired to use Corey’s former apartment in Millersville as a headquarters for a sex-trafficking organization.

Harris, Johnson and Tyler were also arrested Tuesday. The indictment was returned Sept. 24.

Prosecutors say the four used online classified ads and social networking sites to recruit females for prostitution and to advertise sexual services. The men allegedly arranged for the travel of females, including a 16-year-old girl, from Ohio to Maryland to engage in prostitution.
