PiscesTwo Arizona Teens Accused of Pimping Other Girls
CNN: The grandmother of a 16-year-old Arizona girl accused of prostitution -- and recruiting and pimping other teen girls -- said Wednesday she hopes to fight the charges in court.
Tatiana Tye and a second 16-year-old girl, Jazmine Finley, were indicted earlier this week by a grand jury, Maricopa County, Arizona, prosecutors said in a statement. Although the girls are juveniles, prosecutors released their names and said they will be tried as adults.
Tye is charged with one count of child prostitution and three counts of pandering, or serving as a go-between or liaison for sexual purposes, prosecutors said.
Finley faces nine counts of child prostitution; two counts of receiving earnings of a prostitute; and one count of pandering. All the charges are felonies, prosecutors said.
The two were arrested last week after a five-month investigation, Phoenix police told reporters. Authorities believe Tye and Finley recruited at least five girls, ranging in age from 14 to 17, on the campuses of their high schools, police spokesman Sgt. Andy Hill said in a Monday news briefing posted on the Web site of CNN affiliate KTVK.
"We have a situation of two girls, 16 years old, who are, in essence, pimps," Hill said. "And they ran their own brothel."

I totally agree with you. I mean I think what you said is a little harsh but I agree with you. There is definitely SOMETHING wrong with the youth today and it needs to stop. They are all disrespectful, nasty and just gross! They prostitute themselves and others. It is nasty. I think this girl definitely did what they say she did and I hope her Grandmother will stick with her when she finds out. She is gonna need ALL the support she can get.

The Hollywood movie industry and society in general encourages and pushes “teen sex.” If you don’t believe it, check out the movie “The Babysitters,” at your local video store. The basis of the movie: a teen high school girl prostitutes herself, then recruits other female classmates and becomes their “pimp.”
Are you kidding me? All the grandmother has to say is she wants to take it to court, & her granddaughter to see her accusers?? WTF? So then, her & her other criminal family members can retaliate? Obviously already an issue in the family as grandma is raising her. The police have been investigating for 5 months???? And they just picked on her for no reason, right??? Whatever. What a dirty b!tch!
