Bed-Stuy Man Prostituted Young Girls In Brownstone Sex Parties, Prosecutors Say

BEDFORD-STUYVESANT, BROOKLYN — A man who hosted sex parties and prostituted underaged girls from his Bed-Stuy brownstone now faces 15 years in prison, federal prosecutors announced Friday.

Brian Adams, 35, began prostituting young women and girls, some as young as 12-years-old, to adult men in his Brooklyn brownstone in 2004, according to the U.S. Attorney’s office.

One of Adams’ victims, whose name prosecutors did not release, testified that she had been abused and forced into prostitution by Adams when she was 14-years-old.

“I have tried to kill myself, and if it were not for my children, I would continue to try,” the woman said. “Yet, I don’t want Mr. Adams to think he broke me.”

“I try each day to be stronger and to become the great mother that I know I can be.”

Adams used violence to force at least one young woman to prostitute herself and ordered another to seek young girls on Facebook to invite to his sex parties, prosecutors said.

The young women were forced to live with Adam in his Bed-Stuy brownstone, which served as the hub of his business and the site of his sex parties, prosecutors said.

Adams was sentenced to 15 years in prison and ordered him to pay $10,500 in restitution to one of his victims in Brooklyn Federal Court, where he pleaded guilty to sex trafficking young women in February.

“I don’t want Mr. Adams to think he broke me,” said Adams’ victim at his sentencing. “He tried to kill me in so many ways, every day, but I refuse to let that happen to me.”
