The list of suspects in a Fort Valley State University sex and prostitution ring reads like characters in a cheap novel. Those are four of the six men that Macon Judicial Circuit District Attorney David Cooke says were clients of a prostitution ring that was run on campus between and earlier this year.
Alecia Jeanetta Johnson, a year-old former executive assistant to FVSU's president , is accused of being its ringleader who set up sex for the men.
Johnson, who was also the graduate advisor to a sorority on campus, is facing six counts of pimping. She also faces six counts of prostitution on allegations she performed, offered or consented to perform a sexual act for money or other items of value, prosecutors said.
Johnson is also charged with conspiracy to commit fiduciary theft stemming from allegations she conspired to take scholarship money, a book scholarship, that had been granted to a student in October The six men were each charged with pandering and solicitation of sodomy.
Aside from what he said at his press conference, Cooke was cautious with overall details of the case, as he said it is still open. We are going to continue to let this case be based on evidence and follow it wherever it goes. Officials announced in April they were investigating sexual misconduct and hazing at Fort Valley, about 30 miles south of Macon. Cooke would not comment on any student involvement or abuse surrounding the investigation.
