United States Second Circuit

Affirmed a defendant's conviction for prostituting two minors and employing a minor in the creation of a sexually explicit video. In appealing his conviction, the defendant argued that 18 U.S.C. section 1591 is unconstitutionally overbroad and that his indictment under that statute was deficient. He also argued, as to his conviction under 18 U.S.C. section 2251, that venue was not proper in the Eastern District of New York, but the Second Circuit rejected all of his challenges.
