Man accused of sex trafficking 17-year-old in Sacramento County; assaulting her with hot coffee
A 26-year-old man was arrested after allegedly assaulting and pimping out a 17-year-old girl who escaped from being held against her will, the Sacramento County Sheriff's Office said.
In a press release Saturday, the Sheriff's Office said deputies responded to the Ramada Inn near Auburn Boulevard and Fulton Avenue about a female who had been assaulted. Deputies arrived to find that the 17-years-old victim was being trafficked and pimped out for sex.
The victim told detectives she had had sex with the suspect, identified as Alfred Walker, who was then driving her to various cities to perform commercial sex acts, the Sheriff's Office said. After telling him that she did not want to work on the street as a sex worker, Walker repeatedly threatened her life, pointing a handgun at her, and in one incident, pouring hot coffee on her, the office said.
In another instance, when the victim attempted to leave Walker, he allegedly told her he would shoot any family members or friends who arrived to rescue her, the Sheriff's Office said. The threats and intimidation allegedly allowed Walker to continue exploiting her as a sex worker.
Detectives learned that Walker communicated with all the sex clients to coordinate sex acts between buyers and the victim and would keep all of the money himself, the Sheriff's Office said. Detectives learned Walker also had an unrelated felony domestic violence warrant and began searching for him for several days in various areas throughout Sacramento County.
On Thursday at about 10:30 p.m., detectives found Walker driving on the 4600 block of Fruitridge Road and performed a traffic stop, detaining him without incident. The Sheriff's Office said a search of his vehicle yielded a fully loaded 1911 handgun, along with about 32 grams of presumed methamphetamine.
Detectives also learned of a second victim who was also rescued. Details about the victim and the circumstances of the victim's rescue were not available. The Sheriff's Office said detectives fear there are likely several more unreported victims that may have potentially been pimped and/or trafficked by Walker.
Walker was booked into the Sacramento County Main Jail on multiple felonies and was being held without bail.
He was scheduled to appear in court on March 3.

We still don't know which Ohioan had it On April 21, Keesee Jr., 36, was indicted on 11 counts of rape, 11 counts of gross sexual imposition and five counts of unlawful sexual conduct with a minor. Keesee Jr., a former member of the church staff, was arrested 10 days prior in Johnstown by deputies with the Licking County Sheriff's Office. At the time of his arrest, he was charged with two counts of rape out of Mount Vernon Municipal Court. The date range for the charges spans from 2001 to 2012 with a Licking County prosecutor saying the ages of the victims ranged from 6 to 15 at the time of the alleged offenses. The superseding indictment lists the 32 total allegations along with the following date ranges: Dates Charge (counts) Nov. 2001-May 2004 Rape (5) Nov. 2001-May 2004 Gross sexual imposition (5) Oct. 2002 – Nov. 2006 Rape (5) Oct. 2002 – Nov. 2006 Gross sexual imposition (3) Dec. 2004 – Nov. 2006 Gross sexual imposition (1) Nov. 2006 – Oct. 2008 Rape (1) Nov. 2006 – Oct. 2008 Gross sexual imposition (2) Oct. 2008 – Oct. 2011 Unlawful sexual conduct with minor (5) June 2008 – June 2012 Rape (2) June 2008 – June 2012 Gross sexual imposition (3) In February, the Knox County Sheriff's Office asked the Licking County Sheriff's Office to investigate the church for allegations of sexual abuse of minors because Drenda Keesee serves as a Knox County commissioner. Ohioans can soon buy over twice as much nonmedical marijuana Drenda Keesee has also published several books, including one titled 'They Are Coming For Your Children,' which is described as 'a wake-up call to parents and the nation to confront and combat what is nothing less than every offensive evil that hell can unleash against the children of this generation. From transgenderism, to critical race theory to sex-trafficking, satan is bent on destroying this generation because they are destined to bring in worldwide revival and usher in the return of Jesus Christ.' Keesee Jr.'s jury trial is expected to begin on July 1, according to the Knox County Clerk's office. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Jonathan Joss, actor known for ‘King of the Hill and ‘Parks and Recreation,' dies in shooting
Actor Jonathan Joss, whose varied career notably included roles on 'King of the Hill' and 'Parks and Recreation,' has died. He was killed Sunday in a shooting in San Antonio, according to police. According to an incident report shared with The Times, officers responded Sunday evening to a shooting at the 200 block of Dorsey Drive where they found Joss near the roadway. First responders 'attempted life saving measures' until EMS officers arrived. He was pronounced dead at the scene, police said. He was 59. Police did not disclose details about what led to the shooting, but said officers located and arrested the alleged shooter. Sigfredo Alvarez Ceja, 56, was booked Monday morning on suspicion of murder. His bond is set for $200,000, according to TMZ, which broke the news of Joss' death. The Times could not reach a legal representative for Alvarez Ceja. San Antonio police said it is investigating the shooting. Jonathan Joss, born December 1965, is best known for voicing John Redcorn, Hank Hill's neighbor on the hit Fox animated series 'King of the Hill.' Joss lent his voice to the series from 1997 to 2009, taking over from original voice actor Victor Aaron. He also voiced John Redcorn for the show's video game tie-in in 2000. Joss spoke about his ties to his longtime character in April as he lamented not being invited to an event promoting the 'King of the Hill' revival. Hulu announced on Friday that Season 14 of 'King of the Hill' will premiere in August. The voice cast touts Mike Judge, Kathy Najimy, Pamela Adlon, Johnny Hardwick, Stephen Root, Lauren Tom, and Toby Huss. Joss recorded lines for the revival prior to his death, according to Variety. 'This show was a part of my life for many years,' he wrote on Facebook. 'That character, that voice, that story … they were my home, my pride, my connection to something bigger than myself.' Joss, who studied acting at Our Lady of the Lake University, began acting in the mid-1990s with minor roles in TV projects including 'Walker, Texas Ranger' and the miniseries 'Dead Man's Walk.' In addition to 'King of the Hill,' Joss is known for portraying Wamapoke elder and casino owner Chief Ken Hotate in NBC's 'Parks and Recreation,' where he appeared alongside star Amy Poehler. In the series, Joss' Ken dissuades Poehler's peppy protagonist Leslie Knopefrom hosting a local festival on sacred burial grounds. 'There are two things I know about white people,' he jokes in the series. 'They love Matchbox Twenty and they are terrified of curses.' His television credits also include the Paramount+ drama 'Tulsa King,' 'Ray Donovan,' 'Friday Night Lights,' 'ER' and 'Charmed.' Joss' resumé includes films 'The Magnificent Seven,' 'True Grit' and '8 Seconds,' among others. He also lent his voice to several video games, including 'Red Dead Redemption,' 'Days Gone,' 'Wasteland 3' and 'Cyberpunk 2077.' The actor embarked on several fan events, including meet-and-greets and Q&As, in the months before his death. On Sunday morning, he recalled meeting fans at Tribe Comics and Games in Austin: 'Last night's gig was amazing — huge thanks to everyone who came out and showed us love!' In the same post, Joss told followers he was seeking a ride to San Antonio. Joss is survived by his husband Tristan Kern de Gonzales. They got married this year on Valentine's Day. Joss lost his San Antonio home and three dogs in a January fire and has 'been rebuilding, piece by piece, soul by soul,' he said in his April Facebook post. He added, addressing fans: 'You've been the ones to lift me up, to remind me of the impact I've made, and to carry me through some of the darkest day[s] of my life. your love means more than I can ever say.' ___ © 2025 Los Angeles Times.
