Married dad of 2 allegedly tried to kidnap sex workers in New York for trafficking, authorities say.
In both instances — one in July and the other in October 2018 — Frey arranged meetings with the women. Then, through force, he attempted to take each of them to a “secluded location,” kidnapping them against their"strong objections," the federal prosecutor's office said in court documents.
Each of the women escaped Frey by jumping out of his moving vehicle, sustaining injuries in the process, prosecutors allege. "The nature of his conduct towards Jane Does #1 and #2 was sufficiently violent that both deemed it a safer option to throw themselves from a moving vehicle in order to escape the defendant," prosecutors said.Armed with a weapon, he tried and failed to kidnap Jane Doe #1 a second time, but she was able to once again escape, documents say.
A third sex worker had previously taken out a restraining order against Frey after he intentionally rammed his vehicle into hers, documents outline. The victim also said Frey violated the order by calling her and leaving threatening voicemails. Authorities believe there may be more victims. Authorities says Frey has a history of violence against sex workers and poses a danger to the community., was a manager at an aircraft components factory and had a slew of prior convictions such as criminal possession of stolen property.The U.S. attorney's office said in court documents that if convicted Frey faces a 15-year minimum sentence.
