TANEY COUNTY, Mo. — Four more people have been arrested on charges involving various alleged sex trafficking crimes following a two-day sting operation by multiple law enforcement agencies.
Online court documents show four men were arrested and allegedly charged:
Devon Leo Stetts, 28, of Gassville, Arkansas is allegedly charged with prostitution
Jahmar Graham, 41, of Branson, is allegedly charged with second-degree attempted sex trafficking of a child under 18
Tyler Robinson, 22, of Monett, is allegedly charged with first-degree promoting prostitution and promoting travel for prostitution
Roy L. Reyes II, 25, of Kimberling City, is allegedly charged with second-degree attempted sex trafficking of a child under 18

A probable cause statement says Stetts responded to an online ad by an undercover officer claiming to be a woman over the age of 18. Stetts asked to pay $120 for sex with the woman, and was arrested when he arrived at the agreed meeting place.
Documents show that Robinson forced a victim to be a prostitute and arranged meetings for sex in exchange for money. When interviewed by law enforcement, documents say the victim said they felt unsafe and had been physically abused by Robinson for the last several days.
Graham and Reyes both responded to ads online by undercover officers claiming to be girls under 17 years old, according to probable cause statements and offered payment for sexual conduct.
All four men are currently being held in the Taney County Jail without bond.
