A Virginia man was arrested Thursday on charges of bringing two minors to Jacksonville to engage in prostitution.
Marvin Leigh Madkins, 28, of Newport News was indicted last week by a federal grand jury in Jacksonville on two counts of sex trafficking of minors and one count each of transporting minors to engage in criminal sexual activity and possessing a shotgun to further a crime of violence.
Federal prosecutors said Madkins recruited the two minors in Virginia and brought them to Jacksonville between April and June. He faces a life prison sentence and $1 million in fines if convicted.
U.S. Magistrate Monte Richardson ordered Madkins held until Monday, when he has scheduled a detention hearing.
