Cumberland County Deputy District Attorney Megan Elam announced Monday that one of three people charged with operating a sex trafficking business from their Gorham home has pleaded guilty and has been sentenced to five years in prison.

Klein Fernandes, 27, has been convicted of sex trafficking and aggravated assault, Elam said.

Fernandes pleaded guilty to sex trafficking involving two different victims between December 2013 and March 2014. He also pleaded guilty to aggravated assault against a third teenage girl who lived at the Gorham residence, for burning her with a heated knife blade, Elam said.

Because Fernandes was on probation for a 2008 armed robbery charge and under the supervision of the Department of Corrections at the time he committed these crimes, he also was sentenced for violating his probation, Elam said.
