York Daily Record
Robert Lee “Stone” Johnson, 54, of York was sentenced on April 8 to 33 years’ imprisonment on sex trafficking charges, according to a release from the Department of Justice.
According to Acting United States Attorney, Bruce D. Brandler, said Johnson recruited and enticed multiple victims to engage in commercial sex acts at York County hotels between November 2015 and August 2016. Most of the victims would give the money they earned to Johnson in exchange for having basic living expenses supplied. They relied on Johnson for food and clothing, as well as drugs to support their addictions.

The Tenderloin will see a boost in after-school and community activities for teens and older transitional-aged youth through a new program funded in part by a federal grant.
The Tenderloin Community Benefit District’s (TLCBD) new Youth Voice program will be the “backbone” of a new neighborhood-wide partnership intended to empower young residents and elevate their voices, Youth Voice director Esan Looper tells Hoodline.
TLCBD’s work to identify and address the needs of young people is well known already, but this program, which will focus more on older youth, began with an intern program to support the PlayStreets series that occurred last fall, Looper said.
