Rahim McIntyre, Sex Trafficking, Pennsylvania 2014

PHILADELPHIA — A federal jury found Rahim McIntyre, 35, of Philadelphia, guilty of using force and coercion to cause women to engage in prostitution.

McIntyre, also known as ‘King Kobra,’ was sentenced to 262 months in prison for three counts of sex trafficking. He ran a prostitution business in Philadelphia and other major cities between early 2006 and late 2012.

McIntyre recruited unsuspecting girls aged 18 and younger and then psychologically manipulated them to comply with his demands through physical violence. He obtained numerous photographs of each victim in lingerie and caused Internet advertisements to be created in which he advertised them as available for purchase for purposes of prostitution.

In addition to the prison term, U.S. District Court Judge Harvey R. Bartle ordered restitution of $5,200 per victim, a $300 special assessment, and eight years of supervised release.

McIntyre’s brother, Rashaad McIntyre, was charged in December 2012 with sex trafficking of minors and production of child pornography. He pleaded guilty and is awaiting sentencing.

The case was investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, with assistance from the Pennsylvania State Police Criminal Intelligence Center, and the Philadelphia First Judicial Court Warrant Unit. It is being prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Michelle Morgan.
