A Mount Vernon man could face at least 10 years behind bars for allegedly sex trafficking a minor.
Rai Thomas, 27, was arrested for trafficking the teenager at hotels in the Bronx and Brooklyn.
A U.S. attorney says Thomas exploited the girl, who lived at an at-risk youth facility, and forced her to engage in sexual activity for his own profit.
The U.S. Attorney's Office believes there could be other victims out there.
