A husband and wife duo accused of running a sophisticated sex ring in Louisiana are previously deported illegal migrants with lengthy rap sheets.
Murillo Lazano-Vargas and Zabdi Danea Guzman-Diaz were apprehended by the East Baton Rouge Sheriff’s Office earlier in November on charges related to the promotion of prostitution, human trafficking by force and pandering, according to local outlet WAFB. The married couple are Mexican nationals who are not only living in the U.S. unlawfully, but had already been deported from the country before returning to allegedly launch their illicit brothel enterprise, according to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).
“On November 6, ICE Homeland Security Investigations executed a search and arrest warrant for a human trafficking and sexual exploitation investigation,” a DHS spokesperson stated to the Daily Caller News Foundation. “HSI Law enforcement rescued three victims of these barbaric criminals.”
“Thanks to the brave men and women of ICE , these human traffickers and predators are off the streets,” the DHS spokesperson continued. “President Trump and Secretary Noem are dismantling transnational criminal networks.”

Local law enforcement received a tip in January that an individual going by the moniker “Primo,” later identified as Lazcano-Vargas, was overseeing a home in the Baton Rouge area where prostitution and human trafficking were allegedly taking place, according to WAFB. The Mexican national allegedly used WhatsApp to send explicit images of females to arrange meetings with clients, with investigators later determining that his wife was a co-conspirator in the scheme.
