Westminster Woman (MD) Sentenced to 10 Years for Sex Trafficking of a Child
Department of Justice ^ | June 23, 2009 | United States Attorney's Office District of Maryland

BALTIMORE, MD—U.S. District Judge William D. Quarles, Jr. sentenced Deborah Gail Frock, age 40, of Westminster, Maryland, today to 10 years in prison, followed by supervised release for life, for sex trafficking of a minor, announced United States Attorney for the District of Maryland Rod J. Rosenstein. Judge Quarles also ordered that Frock must register as a sex offender upon her release from prison.

According to her plea agreement, Frock met the victim when the girl was in high school. Frock recognized the victim's last name and realized that they were distantly related. Frock befriended the victim and they began spending increasing amounts of time together. The victim believed that since she and Frock were related, she could trust Frock. Frock began to provide the victim with marijuana and crack cocaine.

Subsequently, Frock posted a photograph of the victim on the internet under the heading "Available Now" and began to arrange dates for the victim using several screen names.

The victim was 17 years old in July 2006 through October 2006, when Frock arranged for the victim to engage in sex acts - including intercourse and oral sex - with adult males for which Frock received cash and sometimes drugs as payment. Specifically, Frock arranged for the victim to have sex with a truck driver who took the victim from Maryland to Massachusetts and back, in exchange for crack cocaine. Frock also transported the victim to a pornographic photo shoot that involved sex acts with an adult man at a hotel in Maryland. Additionally, Frock arranged for a similar photo shoot with an adult male at his home in Virginia. Frock provided the victim's transportation from Maryland to Virginia and received payment for the pornographic photo shoot with the victim.

This case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse launched in May 2006 by the Department of Justice. Led by United States Attorneys' Offices and the Criminal Division's Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section (CEOS), Project Safe Childhood marshals federal, state and local resources to better locate, apprehend and prosecute individuals who exploit children via the Internet, as well as to identify and rescue victims.

The case was investigated by the Maryland Human Trafficking Task Force formed in 2007 to discover and rescue victims of human trafficking while identifying and prosecuting offenders. Members include federal, state and local law enforcement, as well as victim service providers and local community members.

United States Attorney Rod J. Rosenstein praised the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Maryland State Police and Carroll County State's Attorney Jerry Barnes and his office for their assistance in this investigation and prosecution. Mr. Rosenstein thanked Assistant U.S. Attorney Solette Magnelli, who is prosecuting the case.

One case I worked on with investigators involved a man who did similar things, WITH HIS OWN DAUGHTER.

The kid, starting at age 8, was set up to have sex with adults. The guy made videos and sold them. When business was slow, he made videos of himself abusing her.

It took every ounce of restraint to prevent the arresting officers to not put a bullet in his head.
