A man who took a deal and pleaded guilty in January to human trafficking was sentenced Wednesday to 21 years in prison, according to the Denver District Attorney’s Office.
William Galbreath pleaded guilty to one count of human trafficking, according to court records. The deal dropped additional charges of pimping, money laundering and violating a protection order from his case.
Denver District Court Judge Nikea Bland also ordered Galbreath to register as a sex offender, according to a news release from the Denver District Attorney’s Office.
Between April 2021 and April 2024, Galbreath “identified multiple vulnerable women, coerced them to engage in commercial sex with false promises of large sums of money and created fake businesses to launder the proceeds of the commercial sex,” the district attorney’s office wrote in the news release.
He did that while actively on a 4-year supervised probation after pleading guilty to pimping in 2020, the district attorney’s office said.
