Man accused of keeping 12 male sex slaves, branding them with tattoos

In the arrest affidavit, one of the victims said he knew “Crumpler is HIV-positive” but that safe sex was not practiced in the house.

“The young gentleman that I met with said some of the other boys were HIV positive but they were taking medication to suppress it,” the 23-year-old told FOX31-TV. “They don’t realize they’re victims. They think he’s there to help them.”

Crumpler, who owns a motel in Thailand, had his passport revoked at a court hearing earlier this week. The judge also forbid him for using the Internet for anything other than “work-related duties and responsibilities.” He will return to court for a preliminary hearing on November 23.
