Jason Whren, 33, of Washington, has pleaded guilty to enticing a 15-year-old girl to travel from Seattle to Washington to work as a prostitute. Whren, who pleaded guilty to first-degree sexual abuse of a child and pandering of a minor on Monday during D.C. federal court, is also facing a possible life term at his sentencing scheduled for June 11. According to police evidence, the girl was contacted on Facebook by Whren who enticed her to travel to Washington in December of 2012. Prosecutors claim Whren had sex with the girl and then forced her to engage in prostitution by walking the streets and responding to internet advertisements.
