Based on the intereepted texts. i believe LG. stated she was mad at beeause he had punehed her. She wanted MONSCW to explain. why another prostitute eould talk back to him for two hours and nothing happened to her but LG- was punehed. LG. eontinued to eomplain to MONSON and told him to go back to his girlfriend. MONSGN said ?ldgal?? (I, donjt give a fuek), know what i do.? LG. said all of Fresno knew what MONSON had done and said all ot?l?resno knew he was a pimp. LG. then told 128 26 27 28 him that she going home. She told MONSON that she did not leave lior Virginia. MONSON wanted to know why she didnit leave and told her to quit playing with him. LG. complained about giving all of her money to and how he wouldn?t give her any money. She even had to ask her parents [or money. MONSON said she asked her parents because she was mad at him for smacking her. LG. told MONSON that his physical assault against her opened her eyes and she was questioning why she gives him her money when he physically assaults her. MONSON told her to quit talking back to him. LG. told MONSON that she was tired and he told her to put her posts up. Based on my experience and knowledge of this investigation I know the term ?post? is used to describe an advertisement on various internct media websites. such as bt-tckpageeom. whereby prostitutes advertise their availability. She complained to that his behavior has changed her thoughts related to prostitution and that prostitution is no longer enjoyable. 357. On March 15. 2016. agents intercepted calls between LG. and MONSON on During the calls. LG. talked about [lying home and told MONSON her ?ight was delayed [from Phoenix. AZ.

MON8ON then sait . ?You know what do to you about this bitch. What I do to you about Noelle? What the fuck do to you about Noelle at that. school?? MONSON also asked. ?You remember. that day over at that school what I do to you?" 8.8. said. ?Yeah. remember." MON8ON then yelled. ?0k. You want the same shit with Tee huh?

I?m gonna beat the shit out oj?you. You 132 l9 know i will. You what l?ll do to you.? 362.. Based on my training and experience and my knowledge of this investigation. it is my opinion that MONMDN is exerting his control NEE-1.. During this investigation, I have listened to of intercepted calls and reviewed thousands of intercepted text messages involving pimping/pandering and human 'trt-tftieking. Most of the calls and texts I reviewed involve MONSCW or one fthe tcmale prostitutes under his control. I have also spoken with multiple Fresno PD Vice Detectives regarding calls intercepted during this investigation. which has allowed me to become familiar with the meanings of the slang terms and code phrases used by MONSCW and the prostitutes under his control. I also know, based on previously intercepted calls and texts. that at the time ofthis call. 8.33. was in Virginia along with MM. and Based on my knowledge of this investigation 1 know that all three subjects are prostitutes under the control of MONSON. began the conversation i by accusing 55.5. of being ?out there faggrn? with yo friend.? i know that DPG pimps and their prostitutes use the term ?fag? or ?faggot? to refer to MONSON then accused ofbeing in Virginia and ?snitching.? in this case, did not accuse 8.8. ofspeaking with law en lhrcement; but rather. he was accusing her ofproviding information over her liaecbook that he wanted kept secret. MONSON repeatedly berated her for liacebook. and Snapchat posts. MONSON continued to accuse SS. otmsnitclting? on social media. One i?the reasons that has maintained his success as a. pimp is because of how diligent he is about keeping the location of his prostitute's secret. Agents have intercepted multiple calls/texts in which he instructs his prostitutes not disclose their location. I believe this is done to avoid the prostitutes from being contacted by law enforcement and having to compete with other prostitutes for customers. MONSON frequently informs his prostitutes not to post their location on social media sites because he knows other pimps and prostitutes often look at social media sites to gather information on other pin'tps and/ or prostitutes. 363. During this conversation. MONSON was angry with EB. because she posted something on a social media site which could allow another pimp, prostitute, or law 133 Vhhnii L0 llcl' l-le with violence and instructs her to delelc lie! social nicdia silt. hccumc (angry will] MUNSUN and accused him orbiting 2i "u-ick" I'nr "Denise."

MONSON sends 3.8. out ol'the state to Virginia and Washington While there, she is required to .make a certain amount of money before he will allow her to come back to Fresno. is coerced into committing these sex acts because she is not free to leave until she makes the required money- While there, MONSON continues to deny her personal liberty by restricting her access and her communications over social media. is also Forced to give the majority 1" all the money she makes from her criminal activities to MONSDN. This forces to be reliant upon as she has no money of her own. 370. Additionally, agents l'iave intercepted multiple calls involving using his cellular phone to direct and coordinate the activities o'l'lS?. criminal sex acts. It is clear that MONSON is used his phone to lacilitate his criminal pimping activities. Agents have also intercepted calls in which MONSON directs the criminal sex acts ol?his prostitutes in states other than Calitornia. On April 5, 2016, (ll-llj Otlicer Seomona authored a pen register for phone. On April 12, 2016, agents were able to check the GPS location other phone and learned that was in Virginia. Based on the intercepted calls and the (JPS location, believe that MONSON is conn'nitting his pimping activities across state lines. N. MONSON MILLRO PLACE A BACKPAGE AD. 371.

Those women are referred to as a, ?Bottom,? or ?Bottom Bitch.? This position is highly coveted by prostitutes, since the ?Bottom,? or ?Bottom Bitch,? has power and in?uence over the other prostitutes and is a direct representative ol'the pimp. During the course of." this investigation agents have intercepted numerous calls associated to YORK and have identi?ed ?Bottom.? liurther, during these conversations, YORK has instructed CiAlNliiS to pressure some of his other prostitutes into waking up earlier. I believe YORK attempted to n'iasimiae his pro?ts by having the prostitutes perform a greater number i prostitution acts throughout the day. YORK also instructed CiAlNl?iS to transport his prostitutes to dil?l'erent locations known for prt'istitutitm, collect money from prostitutes, and recruit new girls into the prostitution lifestyle. 382.

Based on my training, espericnce and knowledge of this case, I believe contacted YORK to report her recent arrest by FPO VlCl-?i l?licers. Based on my knowledge ol?this investigation. 1. have heard the name ?trick? has been used to describe a person paying for sex. I believe reference to ?trick? is her way a customer that is paying her to engage in some type ofsexual activity. YORK asked K13. il.?she was contacted by ?regular? cops, referring to unitiu'med cops in marked vehicles. K.G. told YORK she had been contacted by detectives and YORK asked her details regarding her arrest and subsequent cite. 391. During this investigation, 1 have heard several prostitutes and pimps use the term ?hoeing,? when referring to prostitutes perliorming acts olz'prostitution. YORK told the police can?t prove she was doing an act t?il?prt'istitution and KO. responded that they can, because the ?trick? told them. YORK asked Kt}. how much money she made and KO. told YORK, one hundred and lil?ty dollars. but that the police took titty. I know based on previously intercepted calls, YORK checks on the amount of money each of his prostitutes generates through prostitution because prostitutes are required to give him their money. I also know that if" they do not make enough money. do not tell him about money they made. or attempt to hide any earnings from prostitution. YORK has threatened his prostitutes with the use ol?physieal Force. YORK has bragged about assaulting his prostitutes on numerous intercepted calls during this case. At the end of'the text stream, K.G. said they blocked her from back page and then re fers to the ol'lice. backpageeom.eom is a commonly used site that prostitutes use to post ads For sexual acts. I believe that isjoking that her "back-page" is the actual motel because she does not place internet ads and usually works the motel or the surrt'nmt'lin streets in the area, and that the motel, or as she refers to as ?of?ce,? 113.5 110W f?'1'1lSOCl TO 113111 1161?

Based on my training, experience and knowledge ofthis investigatim-i. I am aware that pin-ips will often maintain possession a prostitute?s identification card, social security card, birth certi?cate and other personal documents in order to maintain control of and ensure the prostitute does not attempt to leave. Further. I believe that by YORK withholding personal documents he has made it extremely difficult for NP. to leave the prostitution lifestyle.

Based on the content of the call and my knowledge of this investigation 1 know D.M. contacted and informed him an unidentified customer bought her a sweater for $100. D.M. identified this male subject a ?date? who saw her yesterday and paid her $200. i, know from experience and from my knowledge ofthis investigation a ?date? is a male eustmner who visits and solicits sexual acts from a prostitute for money. When MAXFY learned a customer had spent money on D.M. he became angry and began to yell and verbally abuse D.M. specifically, telling her the date needs to give her money and not buy her material items. 1 know from experience and from my knowledge ot'this investigation a Pimp will never allow a prostitute to receive tangible items from customers. First, this makes it dif?cult for the Pimp to be paid and secondly, it encourages the female prostitute to seek other persons to provide for her. ordered D.M. to tell the customer to give her money and further states that every time this customer comes for a ?dz-rtethe conversation continued MAXEY became increasingly angry when he 1 ?arncd D.M. left the hotel with. this male to go buy the sweater. At this point in the conversation MAXIEY demanded to know where D.M. was. D.M. informed him she was at a ?arby restaurant getting Pizza. This angered MAXI-W who then D.M. with violence. I stated ?you about to get your ass beat cause you are doing some weird ass shit and you aint getting enough money bitch.?

At this point .in the converst-ttion D.M. explained to MAXJSY she feels like she doesn?t have a ?Daddy? any more.

When he asked why she felt that way, D.M. stated ?cause 1 been around them, and they been instructing me." Based on this statement combined with my knowledge related to her current situation at the time ofthis call, I. believe she is referring to being in the presence of and other DPG members out of town who are managing her and ?instructing? her as she works as a prostitute. MAXFW responded to this statement by stating ?them my partners Des, .1 gave them niggas the game to keep it going, so they bust moves fOr me like that. because I bust moves for em like that." further elaborated and stated, if DAR go in or something I-"irica still gonna be' with us, you know what I mean it?s a mob its one mob.?

In this case MILLRO is controlling what ads are posted and also paying the lice to post the advertisements. Later in the conversation, MILLRO contacted to nd out il?any date came through. 1 know pimps will check on the status ot'their prostitutes on a regular basis in order to monitor their activities in order to keep track o'l?thc money they are making from the illegal sex acts. 1 know pimps will refer to customers who pay the prostitute for these sexual acts as ?dates.H Later in the day, 13.0. texted MILLRO to post her ad on the internet again because she was 182 'll] 16 '7 l8 20 nni any MILLRO responded ihni he pinned l- .5 mi ninl il \mN' inst slow now. .RO wnlmuus and [old lam. lhiu hr: is planning on [Liking hut in a different bowl in Venuer makc some big money.

MILLRO told KP. 1R4 [arbor because that was the KP. replied. ?No shit.? They both continued a conversation about how the ?Track? wasn?t making any money and how 111?. needed real money. 141.13. said, ?So the niggas are down there on the net huh.? Mil replied. "Yeah, trying to check out this motherfucking net.? KP. asked for specific directions and told Ml LLRO he wouldn?t take him long because he was already in Oran gc County. told MILLRO he had some ?weed? and it would only take him about an hour and a hall? to get there. .507. Based on my training and experience along with my knowledge t" this investigation, I know ELF. is a DPG gang member and a pimp who controls prostitutes in Fresno County as well other cities in California and surrounding states. Based on the above intercepted call, I believe KP. contacted M'll'.l.RC) to find out what hotel he currently has his prostitute working at and to ascertain i'lishe is successful on making money. In the conversation, Mll.l.RO told KP. they were currently in Oceanside but would be traveling back to l?rcsno the following day. i know man DPG 'Finterprise pimpsjointly share on the best locations and techniques to Facilitate their pimping empire. 1 know during the call, lilz?. also explains to MILLRO that pimps should never keep a hoe down alter MILLRO told him they are returning to Fresno the following day. I believe KP. wants to know why MILLRO is going back to Fresno if" his prostitute is making money and by traveling back to Fresno means she will not be able to make money. I 'l'urtl'ie1' know that within the DPG, prostitutes are col-isidered a commodity or property ot?thc pimp and this is l'urtlier corroborated when MILLRO questions KLP. about why is he so concerned about where his ?hoe? is going to be working while MILLRO is away traveling back to Fresno. I believe is referring to RO. when he uses the phrase ?hoe.? later in the call, KP. confirmed with MILLRO that they were down there on the ?net.? i know based on my involvement .in this investigation the term ?net? refers to working out ol'a hotel room with advertisements posted on the internet for the illegal acts of" prostitution. During the call, KP. stated he preferred to make good money and preferred his ?game? working on the ?track.? I know the word game is going to be Kl?fs prostitute and he prelers his girls to actually walk a 185 section ol?street in a speci?c geographict-il location known to be associated to prostitution. Prostitutes will walk or stand on street corners portions of the street and solicit customers to pertinm the illegal acts oi" prostitution. "this area is considered the "track." 508. The aforementioned conversation with MILLRO and 15.0. continued through a series messages throughout the evening and into the early morning ol? Match 9, 2016. The text messages read as tollows. MILIJRO ?Yea it?s probt-tbly gone pick up? FLO. ?People been calling? 13.0. ?No they barely texting" ED. ?Wyd? MILLRO ?Sliding? 1.5.0. ?Oh okay is my ad up" ?Yea? ??1?binkin bout goin outta state getting it up" lit). ?Where you thinking about going" Mll.l.RO ?No l?i'n down with you and I?m thinking Utah" M11 11.11%) ?11 ready to go" 13.0. ?Yea you going?? E10. ?When you wanna go?" MILLRO ?Couple days" 509. Based on my training and experience along with the above intercepted text messages and my knowledge o't'this iiwestigation, I know tcxted 191.0. and told her business would be picking up referring to customers calling her for dates. 13.0. later texted MILLRO back and told him customers werejust barely tcxting and asked Mll?l 1RD it?hcr ad was up. MILLRO responded yeah. texted he was considering taking her to Utah to get it up. I believe this lurther corrol?ioratcs control over 141.0,. 'I?hesc text messages are proof that MILLRO makes all the decisions where 1.51.0. will be staying at to pertorm these illegal acts oi" prostitution. Alter reviewing cellular tower on cellular phone agents were able to confirm cellular phone was in the Oceanside area. 510. On March 14, 2016., beginning at approximately 1520 hours, agents intercepted a series of text messages between Mll.,l..RO and MONSON (TT 117).

Based on training and experience along with the above intercepted text messages and my knowledge o't'this investigation, I believe BO. told that she almost had a customer however the customer changed his mind when he saw what 171.0. looked like in person. 1 know the ads that are posted on the interact most often times contain photos of the 'l'emale ottbring the illegal sex acts of prostitution. Otten times the pimps will post photos oli more attrt-tctive women on the ads in attempt to entice customers to call and arrange a date with his prostitute. This is also purposely done in an attempt to avoid detection from law cntorccment by not posting his prostitutes real picture to avoid arrest. Later in the conversation, tit). asked to post her ad on the in in attempt with different photos that Wt')Lthl resemble her more closely. A short time later, agents intercepted an incoming call (Call #6813) from FLO. to MILLRC). During the call Flt). asked MILLRO to switch her pictures because no one was calling her. I believe 11.0. is not happy with the photos MILLRO posted on her interact ad and wanted him to change the photos in an attempt to attract more customers. This call shows how controls when the ads are posted and what photos are posted in the ad. 516. On March 22., 2016, the day prior to the interception oi" the previous text messages agents 'tiollowcd MILLRO, Akili HM. and PM). south bound State Route 99. 'l?hrough other intercepted calls in this investigation agents believed was tl'anspt'n'ting FLO. and HM. to the Bakersfield area to conduct illegal acts (.3 prostitution because they were both robbed by a customer at the Sun'imertield Inn. The surveillance terminated in the city of liowlcr south ot" Fresno. On March 23, 2016 at the time of the above intercepted calls agents were able to con?rm cellular phone was in the city o't' Bakers?eld after reviewing cellular tower informatitm. 5. KENNETH WHARRY 517. Based on detailed below, I believe WHARRY is in violation ot? 189 Title '18 US.le Section 2421, Transportation in Interstate Commerce for Prostitution; and 18 U.S.C. Section 1029(a)(5) and access device fraud and conspiracy. During this investigation, agents have identi?ed CA. as a prostitute who .is being victimized by W1 518. Listed below are intercepted calls and associated activities involving which illustrate his involvement in the human traf?cking otw women for the purpose of prostitution across state lines. Altl?it'rugh this list is not all inclusive, i believe it establishes that W1 IIARRY is actively involved in the human tral?l'icking of women For prostitution and those acts were conducted in association and for the benefit 01:? the Dog Pound Gangsters. criminal street gang.

The two then began to discuss their relatives who had been involved in various other crimes and had been incarcerated as a result oftheir participation in those crimes. The conversation continued with Kiandre JOHNSON telling Ul?306 he needed 3 bands ($3,000) to go get that Porsche ?truck? and upon acquiring the truck he would then be in the game. 554.

AQUILLA BAILEY 559. throughout this investigation, 1 spoke with Fresno Police Department Vice Detectives regarding the criminal activities ofthe DPG criminal street gang, speci?cally the pimping and human traf?cking ot?juvcnile victims.

Based on my training, experience, and knowledge ot" this investigation. I know that juveniles, in particular runaway juveniles. are lured into the seedy world oi? prostitution with promises o?'i'eedom and n'iaking money. They are often taken far away from their home in order to create the FeelingT ol? isolation and hopelessness, and ensure their dependency on their pimp/trat?tieker. Juveniles are often 't'oreed to perform ?survival sex" which is prostitution acts conducted in order to obtain the necessities of lite, lined, drink, shelter, and clothing. Pimps/tral?lickers will often target runawayjuvenilcs due to their vulnerability, inexperience, and their misguided desire For the freedom from parental direction. These will otten collect all monies earned From their victim. prostitutes and give allowances for items or purchase these items for them in order to exert and maintain control over the victim. 56].

Kiandrc .lOllN SON I.) spoke with PARKS Darin the call, PARKS answered the telephone and Kiandre asked PARKS i.t??Pa.y Day" had received his money. PARKS told Kiandre ?no? and ?Pay Day? would need to verily he is going to take care Oil" his little girl. PARKS told Kiandre JOHNSON that ?Pay Day? would need to go to the local IRS of?ce and submit the dependent tierm. PARKS also told Kiandre JOHNSON that she already spoke to ?Pay l'Jay? about his tax paperwork and ?'Pay Day" (MILLRO) told her that he already took care ofthe dependent to rm. 646. Based on my training, experience and knowledge of this investigation, know Kiandre JOHNSON is an active ?Dog Pound? gang member and has been observed associating with who has a gang moniker ot"?Pay Day?. also an active ?Dog Poimd? gang member. Based on my knowledge ot?this investigation. I believe Kiandre .IO HN SON contacted PARKS regarding a tax return she prepared for MILLRO. Based on the content ot'the intercepted call, I believe PARKS communicated with MILL RO regarding the preparation olihis tax return on 8. 647. Based on my experience and knowledge o'l?this investigation. I am aware that PARKS is involved in the preparatimi of lraudulent tax returns. I. also believe PARKS is involved in the preparation of tax returns for active ?Dog Pound? gang members. as well as their associates. Further. know PARKS will also prepare tax returns for associates and use false information in order to maximize the amount l'their return. PARKS will then have the tax return deposited into an online account. I have learned from a prior irwestigation that PARKS would keep 50 percent of the tax return and provide it to members of the Dog Pound gang. 648. On March 2016. agents intercepted a series of telephone calls (#5705, 5781) and text messages between MONSON and PARKS 1 S). The text messages read as follows. PARKS ?You called me? 227 9 10 16 26 27 28 ?Who this" PARKS "Stasha? MONSON ?Yea this naeh, i wanted to see it?u can do Sylvia taxes the girl that worked her name gave me the w2?s? PARKS ?Okay yeah what time? MONSON ?Whenever free" PARKS ?0k? 649. At 1740 hours, MONSON (PPM-7) spoke with PARKS During the call, MONSON answered the telephone call and PARKS said ?Nache. what she do, what kind ot'job??" said he needed to ask her but it was some kind of agriculture job. 650. Based on my knowledge o't?this investigation and the eontent of the intercepted calls, I believe PARKS is preparing a tax return for SS, a prostitute 1 also believe PARKS is aware that did not in fact. work and is completing the tax return for regardless. Based on my knowledge of this investigation, I know is an active prostitute and her pimp is MONSON. I believe the money obtained from the illegally tiled tax return will be provided to MONSON. Based on my trz-rining, experience and knowledge oftbis investigation, I know that a signi'l'ieant portion ol'the money generated by the Dog Pound gang originates :t'i'om fraudulent tax return ?lings processed by PARKS. 65]. Beginning at 1754 hours, PARKS text The text messages read as PARKS )ircet deposit info? PARKS "Issue date on 1D expire date 652. Agents monitored the location for State Parole ankle monitor and determined that he was in the area ol? the Five Guys restiun?ant, located at 6623 N. Riverside Drive liresno. Ca. 653. At 1800 hours, ("1111? Olcr. Sanchez and I. responded to the area and located MONSON inside the restaurant. 654. At 1805 hours, 1. saw MONSON and a secrnid unidenti?ed black male adult. enter Mercedes. Agents followed MONSON to 4741 W. Spruce suite ill 13. MONSON arrived at the business at 1813 hours and walked into the 'tront door of the business. 655. At 1825 hours, MONSON exited the business and drove awe-1y. 656. At 1847 hours, I walked past the front door to the business and observed 228 I 9 20 26 27 28 PARKS seated in front ofa desk located along the north wall ot?thc room. Having previously viewed a California DMV photo of" PARKS I positively identi?ed her as the only person inside the business. At that time did not see any signs indicating a business was being operated out o'l?the office space. Of?er. Sanchez utilized various law enlorcement databases and conducted research on the business address for PARKS, located at 474] W. Spruce Suite it]. I 3, as well as PARKS. lie was not able to locate any business listed for the above listed address, nor did he locate any businesses listed under PARKS. Based on my training, experience and knowledge of this investigation, I believe the business of?ce PARKS is working out ol?is simply a treat for the Dog Pound gang?s criminal enterprise. Based on my training and experience, I know gang members will open businesses for the purpose of laundering money obtained from criminal activity. 657. At 1913 hours, MONSON (Pitt?) spoke with PARKS During the call, MONSON answered the phone and PARKS said ?Nache, what account, which one is hers"? MONSON told PARKS that one ot'the account numbers checking and one of the numbers is savings. PARKS then said the top one must be checking. 658. Based on my training, experience and knowlct'lge of this investigation, i believe PARKS is completing the tax return for and PARKS was calling MONSON to con?rm the checking account Based on my knowledge l?this investigation, I believe PARKS is con?rming the account. in order to have tax return direct deposited into that account. 659. At 1015 hours, PARKS text MON SON The text read as follows. PARKS only had one kid 477?8? PARKS PARKS ?That?s the amount she get back.? MONSON Oh ok do need another one?"

Detective Lucero conducted follow up on the credit cards that were seized from and some of the responses he has received from the Banking Institutions Fraud Department, were the credit card accounts belong to different people. FPD 1")etective Lucero is still waiting for return calls, regarding the other credit card accounts. 756. On April 5, 2016, fJet. l?ucero contacted Kevin who is employed by Jl-?Morgan Chase Bank as Global Security and Investigatirms. Det. Lucero provided him with details ofa possible transaction. that was made on March 26, 2016 at an ATM located at 550 St, Los Banos, CA at t??tpproxin?iately 1725 hours, driving an older model gray Mercedes. He was able to locate rtranst-iction and Det. Lucero provided him the name .15. to determine if the account does belong to her. i tackcy advised Det. Luccro that the account does not belong to her. He also advised that 18. withdrew $500 with a fraud access card. 757. This investigation involves fraud resulting in no less than a $1.45 million loss2h to multiple victims. Based on the reported loss, it appears the stolen account numbers were used by criminal street gang members without the knowledge or permission of the legal owner. It appears that funds or charges for goods and services were disbursed from the accounts ofa number of both, identi?ed, and, as of yet unidenti?ed, persons. 'l?hroughout this investigatirm agents have seen numerous Dog Pound members and their associates utilixe access device fraud to facilitate traudulent ?nancial transactions throughout California and Nevada. I believe the money generated through these criminal activities allows the Dog Pound gang to pay witnesses not to testify in criminal proceedings, fund other criminal end *avors, as well as provide financial support for the gang. One of the methods ofaccess device fraud currently being utilized by the DPG is through the use of prepaid credit cards. members use an cmbosscr/ctmiputer process to apply stolen account numbers to the This estimated loss is a conservative estimate. it is based on a combint-rtion of actual loss and loss based on a calettlation of$500 times the number access devices the defendants possessed (See USSG, Section 2m .1, Application Note The estimate is from only one portion of the lt)29(b)(2) conspiracy for the ease inveseti gated by Secret Service?s Portland of?ce. 253 cards. 0m their nmcinm acquire, by 0r illegal means. prepaid credit curds.
