Via Lowell Sun - "CONCORD, N.H. — Two Chelmsford men and a high school teacher from Hudson, New Hampshire have been charged with attempted sex trafficking after being accused in a federal sting operation of soliciting sex from a 12-year-old girl.
As part of the sting conducted by Homeland Security Investigations, authorities lured the suspects to a Manchester, New Hampshire hotel with advertisements featuring images that appeared to depict young females on websites commonly used to advertise prostitution services.
The operation led to the arrest of five men, including Sharath Chandra Bollu, 23, and his friend Koteshwara Raju Jonnagodda, 24, both of Chelmsford; and Stacey Ray Lancaster, 46, of Hudson, a teacher at West High School in Manchester.
According to an affidavit filed by a federal agent, authorities posted and monitored the advertisements which included a contact number. On Nov. 14, they received a text from Bollu, who was informed by an undercover agent that two girls, ages 12 and 14, were available for sex acts."
