Cleveland Adult Entertainment: Pimps who picked up undercover officers at Westlake Center convicted

Roosevelt “City Red” Johnson Jr., was arrested in July following a daylight sting operation at Westlake Center after trying to get an undercover Seattle officer to work as a prostitute for him.

“Over the years, vice detectives have contacted and interviewed numerous juvenile prostitutes who detailed how they were initially contacted and subsequently groomed by pimps in this specific area,” investigators told the court. “The pimps recruit potential prostitutes via phased manipulation, the duration and degree of which is dictated by the personalities involved.”

Speaking with the men, the officers told each they were underage. Undeterred, Johnson continued to proposition the officers and suggest they prostitute for him.

Johnson was convicted of attempted promoting commercial sexual abuse of a minor, O’Donnell said. Payton was convicted of second-degree attempted promoting prostitution.
A hearing was scheduled Thursday in which a judge was expected to rule on whether Johnson was acting on behalf of the West Side Street Mobb when he attempted to prostitute the officer. Such a finding would increase the penalty against Johnson.
