Nashville Woman Drugged, Taken To OKC For Prostitution: Police

OKLAHOMA CITY, OK — A Nashville woman was drugged, kidnapped and moved more than 600 miles to Oklahoma City, where a man forced her to take drugs and have sex with at least four men, police say.

Oklahoma City Police say that Jason Jarvis Hall, 32, met a woman through a dating app in Nashville and when they met, he drugged her drink. Investigators say when the women woke up, she was in Oklahoma City.

The woman told police Hall told her he was a pimp and she was going to make him a lot of money; Hall forced her to have sex with four clients and to take what she believed to methamphetamine. He guarded her at gunpoint, according to a police report, and advertised her on Backpage.com.

The woman managed to slip away long enough to call police, who tracked Hall to a convenience store. Police say Hall drove off then tried to evade capture by running, though he was eventually apprehended. He is charged with, among other things, human trafficking and kidnapping.

Oklahoma City Police sergeant Mike Knight told KFOR that the case was different from most other human trafficking cases there.

"Oftentimes, people will come here for the purpose of prostituting themselves and then end up in the human trafficking situation," he said. "This one's certainly unusual that this isn't a juvenile, this isn't a runaway, this is somebody that was forced here."
