Sex offender charged in prostitution

A Level 3 sex offender convicted more than 30 years ago of raping two women at the Harvard Business School and a third in Jamaica Plain was charged Wednesday with ­human trafficking and running a prostitution ring in Greater Boston, after an investigation launched in January.

The investigation was sparked by comments made by a woman allegedly drawn into prostitution by Michael ­Leoney, 49. Boston police pulled Leoney over in Roxbury Jan. 12 for a routine traffic stop and noticed that a woman in the passenger’s seat was unusually nervous.

And how, and when, did he get out of prison for his previous convictions???

Ah, sweet justice (I hope). Now he gets to "belong" to someone else and the best part is that he'll never see a dime for providing his services. These are the tax dollars I don't mind spending.

Although my law enforcement friends hate traffic stops, this clearly shows how much one can gain from old fashioned police work. I really feel for a cop who risks it to make a traffic stop. But, I am glad this idiot is headed for jail!
