Teenager Accused of Having 15 Year Old Girl Work as a Prostitute

Chicago police have their hands busy with one teenager who has been arrested twice for pimping a fifteen-year-old girl.

Either Jonathon Padilla, 18, doesn't care about being discovered or he truly doesn't know an undercover agent when he sees one, but this is the second time in less than two months that he was caught. The agent had set up a meeting with the girl, whose number he found in the escort section of BackPage.com, after she sent him nude photos of herself.

Officers arrived beforehand to bug the room where the agent was to meet with the young girl, and that is how they caught Padilla with his girlfriend on tape. When she arrived, she told the officer to take off his clothes, and quoted him a price of $200 for "full sex." After the arrest, the girl told Chicago police that she was a runaway, and had been listed as missing from Tampa for some time.

Padilla now faces multiple charges for sex crimes.
