Four Men in Custody for Alleged Sex Crimes in Taney County

Just days after four people were charged in a sex trafficking sting, four more are now in jail.

Prosecutors have charged 28-year-old Devon Stetts, 41-year-old Jahmar Graham, 22-year-old Tyler Robinson, and 25-year-old Roy Reyes with sex crimes.

Stetts is accused of responding to an online ad put together by law enforcement in which he agreed to pay $120 to have sex with a woman. He was arrested when he arrived at the meeting place, and charged with prostitution.

Authorities say Graham and Reyes responded to an ad, again created by law enforcement, in which they offered money for sexual favors from girls under the age of 17. Both men are charged with second-degree attempted sex trafficking of a child under 18.

Robinson, according to prosecutors, forced a woman to become a prostitute and frequently arranged meetings to have sex in exchange for cash.

The victim told authorities she was in fear for her life, and had been abused by Robinson for several days leading up to her statement. He was charged with first-degree promoting prostitution and promoting travel for prostitution.

All four men are being held in the Taney County Jail.
