Andrew Dominguez, 36, faces seven charges, including violating the Colorado Organized Crime Control Act, attempted pimping, criminal impersonation, extortion and tampering with a victim or witness. Dominguez allegedly established relationships with multiple women and girls across Colorado, Texas, New Mexico and a minor in Arizona. Prosecutors allege he contacted hundreds of women and girls online in 2023, attempting to recruit them into a multi-state sex trafficking ring. Investigators learned of Dominguez during an unrelated sexual-assault probe when a woman reported being listed on online commercial sex sites. Investigators tracked hundreds of commercial sex ads nationwide, many containing a similar message. Dominguez allegedly used VOIP numbers to communicate, making tracing more difficult.
