Violent NYC pimp Arthur Dawson sentenced to 50 years for raping and trafficking teens


A pimp described as one of “the most violent traffickers” ever prosecuted by the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office was sentenced to 50 years behind bars on Wednesday for forcing children into prostitution.

Arthur Dawson, 31, learned his fate in Manhattan Supreme Court after he was convicted by a jury of sex trafficking of a child, promoting prostitution, and conspiracy, among other charges in July 2022.

Dawson, along with co-defendant Daniel Washington — who was sentenced to 25 years in prison in November 2022 — lured teenage girls through Facebook’s messaging service and then sold them for sex in the Bronx and other parts of New York City.

The sicko once raped and choked a 17-year-old girl in a stairwell when she asked him for half of the money she had received from a client at a hotel, according to prosecutors.
