The Associated Press reports that 26-year-old Shakwaan Simpkins was sentenced to more than five years in prison after being convicted in a Massachusettes court of one count of trafficking a person for sexual servitude.

In 2015, Simpkins was arrested as part of an undercover sting operation when he tried to recruit an undercover police officer to work for him as a prostitute.
