Los Angeles Man Indicted for Organized Crime Violation and Attempting to Pimp Colorado Women

DENVER – Denver District Attorney John Walsh and Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser today announced that a statewide grand jury has indicted 36-year-old Andrew Dominguez on seven counts: one count of violation of the Colorado Organized Crime Control Act (COCCA), two counts of Attempted Pimping, two counts of Criminal Impersonation, one count of Extortion, and one count of Tampering with a Victim or Witness.

Dominguez was arrested in California by special agents with the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation’s Fugitive Apprehension Team and agents with the U.S. Marshals Service, with the assistance of Denver District Attorney investigators.

The indictment alleges that, starting in early 2023, Dominguez contacted hundreds of women and girls online to attempt to recruit them to take part in his sex trafficking ring. Because more victims may exist, prosecutors are asking any additional Colorado victims to contact Investigator Joe DeAngelo in the Denver District Attorney’s Human Trafficking Unit at 720-913-9108.

Dominguez is currently being held in California.  His extradition date has not yet been scheduled.
