When a Budget Motel Becomes a Trafficking Base: How We Hold the Property and the Brand Accountable in SeaTac You are reading this because something happened at a Motel 6 in SeaTac, or somewhere like it. Maybe your daughter is fourteen and you cannot reach her. Maybe she came back different. Maybe a call from school led to a detective’s call to you. Maybe you have already spent weeks trying to understand how a national hotel chain, with rooms renting for under eighty dollars a night, with families checking in next door, allowed a teenager to be bought and sold in the room above the ice machine. The question is not whether what happened was wrong. The question is who is legally responsible, how you prove it, and how fast the proof will disappear if you do not move. We are Attorney911, The Manginello Law Firm, PLLC. We represent survivors of sex trafficking and the families of children who were exploited. This page explains the federal civil remedy, the Washington law that backs it up, the corporate structure you are actually fighting, the evidence that is on a clock right now, and the path from what happened to a recovery…

Omaha AmericInn Motel Sex Trafficking Lawsuit: Attorney911 Holds Wyndham Hotels & Resorts Accountable for Employee Complicity in Harboring Minors, Federal TVPRA Claims & Negligent Security Violations Under Nebraska Premises Liability Law — Ralph Manginello’s 27+ Years of Federal-Court Trial Practice, Lupe Peña the Former Insurance-Defense Insider Who Knows How the Claims Machine Undervalues Trafficking Cases, We Preserve Hotel Surveillance Footage & Guest Registry Data Before the Overwrite, Millions Recovered for Victims of Sexual Exploitation — Free 24/7 Consultation, No Fee Unless We Win, Hablamos Español, 1-888-ATTY-911

If This Happened at the AmericInn in South Omaha, You Are Not Alone — and You May Still Have Time to Sue If you are reading this page, something terrible touched your life and it touched it because of the AmericInn motel near South 15th and Spring Street. Maybe you watched a federal indictment and recognized a place you know. Maybe a detective or an FBI agent came to your door. Maybe a person you love is one of the people federal prosecutors say were “harbored, obtained, and maintained” in that hotel — the exact words the lead defendant used when he entered his guilty plea in federal court in Omaha. Whatever brought you here, we want you to hear a few things clearly, up front, and in plain English. First: What happened was not your fault. The law says so. It says so for adults, and it says so with even more force for minors. A federal grand jury reviewed the evidence and a hotel employee has admitted under oath that he kept the operation running from inside that motel. The guilt belongs to the people who did this — and to the place that let it happen on…

Route 73 Human Trafficking & Narcotics Ring Bust in Pennsauken & Maple Shade — Attorney911 Holds Motels and Corporate Owners Liable Under New Jersey’s Human Trafficking Prevention Act for Exploiting 15 Women, Ages 29 to 52, in Motels Along the Corridor, We Preserve Guest Registries, Surveillance Footage, and Police Call Logs Before They Vanish, Lupe Peña the Former Insurance-Defense Attorney Who Knows How the Claims Machine Undervalues Trafficking Victims, Ralph Manginello’s 27+ Years of Federal-Court Trial Practice, the Firm Has Recovered Millions for Survivors of Severe Exploitation — Free 24/7 Consultation, No Fee Unless We Win, Hablamos Español, 1-888-ATTY-911

You Are Not What Was Done To You If you are reading this after seeing the news about the trafficking ring broken up across Pennsauken, Maple Shade, and the surrounding counties, you may be in one of two places right now. You may be a survivor trying to understand whether the law offers you anything other than a criminal case you read about. Or you may be a family member who has just realized that the person you love was used in that operation, and that the motels along Route 73 — the Riviera Motor Inn, the Bel-Air Motor Lodge, the Hometown Studios — were more than just buildings where terrible things happened. We want to tell you something directly before we go any further: the same criminal investigation that put Nathaniel Clay and Shalaby Hicks in jail creates the foundation for a civil case against the motels, the operators, and the corporate structures that took money from the operation while it was happening. That case can result in damages. It can result in your name being protected. It can result in someone paying for the counseling, the medical care, and the lost years. We handle these cases. We will…

Human Trafficking & Child Exploitation at Airbnb Rentals in Santa Clara — Attorney911 Holds Short-Term Rental Platforms Accountable Under the Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act, Ralph Manginello’s 27+ Years of Federal-Court Trial Practice, Lupe Peña the Former Insurance-Defense Attorney Who Knows How the Claims Machine Values and Denies These Cases, We Preserve Booking Logs, Guest Messaging, and Financial Records Before They Are Deleted, California’s Comparative-Fault Rule Means You Can Still Recover Even If You Were Partially Blamed, the Firm Has Recovered Millions for Survivors of Exploitation — Free 24/7 Consultation, No Fee Unless We Win, Hablamos Español, 1-888-ATTY-911

You Are Not the First Person This Has Happened To, and the Building Where It Happened Already Knows It If you are reading this, something happened in a hotel room, a short-term rental, or a vacation property in California. Maybe it was an Airbnb in Santa Clara near Levi’s Stadium during a big game. Maybe it was a roadside motel off a Bay Area freeway. Maybe it was a chain hotel whose brand is on the sign out front. Maybe it was a property management company’s “luxury rental” in a neighborhood you have never lived in. You are not alone, and the people who profited from the room you were kept in were not as surprised as they are now pretending to be. Short-term rental platforms and hotels have known for years that sex trafficking happens in their properties. They have trained their staff to spot it. They have written internal memos about it. They have partnered with anti-trafficking nonprofits in public. And the same properties, in the same weekend, in the same market, continued to rent rooms to the people who were selling you. Our firm takes those cases because the law gives survivors a real path to accountability,…

If a hotel took money from your trafficking, the federal Trafficking Victims Protection Act may give you ten years to make them answer for it If you are reading this, you may be the survivor, or the parent, sibling, or friend of someone who was trafficked for sex at one or more hotels in the Austin area. You may have walked into a front desk that looked clean, professional, even safe. You may have used a room night after night — or you may have been moved from one to another along the I-35 or US-183 corridor. You may have heard “no fee unless we win” before and not trusted it. We get it. This page is written for the moment you are sitting in right now. We are going to walk you through what the law actually says, what a hotel can be sued for even when the hotel did not commit the trafficking itself, what the deadline is, what evidence exists and how fast it disappears, what the insurance carrier is going to do the moment you call, and what we at Attorney911 actually do to move the case forward. There is no charge to talk to us.…

Orinda Airbnb Halloween Shooting: Why the Property Owner, the Event Host, and Airbnb May All Be Accountable for Five Deaths We know why you are reading this. Someone you love went to a Halloween party in Orinda on the night of October 31, 2019, and did not come home. The phone call you received, or the news you woke up to, told you that shots had been fired at a house party on Lucille Way, in the hills above the small Contra Costa County community, and that five people between the ages of 19 and 29 had been killed. We know what that did to your family. We know the questions that have been circling since: How did this happen? Who let it happen? Who answers for it?

Orinda Halloween Airbnb Shooting Lawsuit: Attorney911 Holds Short-Term Rental Platforms Liable for Negligent Security After 5 Fatalities & 5 Gunshot Survivors at Lucille Way Mansion Party — Ralph Manginello’s 27+ Years of Federal-Court Trial Practice, Lupe Peña the Former Insurance-Defense Insider Who Knows How the Claims Machine Undervalues Mass-Casualty Events, We Preserve Social Media Promos, Surveillance Footage & Booking Logs Before They Vanish, California’s Comparative-Fault Rule Means Families Can Still Recover Even If Victims Were Armed, the Firm Has Recovered Millions in Wrongful-Death Cases — Free 24/7 Consultation, No Fee Unless We Win, Hablamos Español, 1-888-ATTY-911

A Parent at the Kitchen Table in Orinda You are reading this at 1 a.m. because your phone rang the night of October 31, 2019, and the voice on the other end said your son was shot at a Halloween party in a house in your own neighborhood — a house you did not know was being rented out for a mansion party that was being advertised on social media. You drove to Lucille Way. You saw the yellow tape. The Contra Costa County Sheriff’s deputies were still there. Some of the people you grew up with were carried out on stretchers. Five young people never came home. Five more were wounded. The rest of the night, and the weeks after, are a kind of blur that has not lifted. Now, years later, the Contra Costa County District Attorney’s office has declined to file criminal charges against the five men that deputies arrested. The DA’s announcement reads, in part, that the office will “need more information” in order to file charges. A sheriff’s spokesman said, “We stand by our investigation.” That left your family with a feeling that the system you trusted had moved on, and the only thing left…

$17.5M Settlement for Three Women Trafficked as Minors at Northeast Philadelphia Hotels — Attorney911 Holds Wyndham Hotels & Resorts and the Owners of Motel 6, Days Inn, and North American Motor Inn Accountable for Failing to Stop Ongoing Criminal Exploitation, Ralph Manginello’s 27+ Years of Federal-Court Trial Practice, Lupe Peña the Former Insurance-Defense Attorney Who Knows How the Claims Machine Undervalues Trafficking Cases, We Preserve Police Call Logs and Guest Records Before They Disappear, Trafficking Victims Protection Act and Pennsylvania’s Premises Liability Doctrine, the Firm Has Recovered Millions in Catastrophic Injury Cases — Free 24/7 Consultation, No Fee Unless We Win, Hablamos Español, 1-888-ATTY-911

Three Philadelphia Hotels, Three Women Trafficked as Minors, and the Federal Law That Made the Hotel Industry Pay We write this page for the survivor reading it at 2 a.m., the mother who has just found out what happened in the room she paid for, and the advocate who knows the truth has been sitting in a hotel ledger for years. This page is about what the law actually says when a national hotel chain profits from a room where a child is sold, and what we do about it. Between May 2015 and January 2017, three women, all minors at the time, were sex-trafficked at three hotels along Roosevelt Boulevard in Northeast Philadelphia: the Motel 6, the Days Inn, and the North American Motor Inn. The hotels collected room revenue from the men who paid to sexually abuse those young women. Philadelphia police visited these properties again and again. The women who survived filed suit under the Trafficking Victims Protection Act, and on the eve of trial, the hotels agreed to pay $17.5 million. The companies did not admit liability. The families did not need them to. The federal civil-remedy statute, 18 U.S.C. § 1595, lets a survivor reach…

Historic Red Roof Inn Sex Trafficking Settlement in Atlanta: Attorney911 Holds National Hotel Chains Accountable for Years of Corporate Knowledge and Profit from Trafficking at Cobb & Fulton County Properties, Ralph Manginello’s 27+ Years of Federal-Court Trial Practice & Lupe Peña’s Insider Knowledge of How the Hospitality Industry’s Claims Machine Operates, We Preserve Guest Folios, Surveillance Footage & Staffing Records Before They Vanish, TVPRA Violations & Georgia Premises Liability Law for Survivors of Sex Trafficking & Prostitution Victimization — Free 24/7 Consultation, No Fee Unless We Win, Hablamos Español, 1-888-ATTY-911

The Night Nobody Wrote Down If you were twenty-three years old and somebody handed you a key to a room at a Red Roof Inn off the South Cobb Parkway in Smyrna, and a man at the front desk took cash from the person who drove you there and did not ask for your ID, and the man who brought you came back with a different girl the next night, and the next, and the next, and that pattern repeated for weeks or months at the same motel, then one night years later a lawyer asked you to sit down and tell the truth about it — what you would say is not a story about a bad night. It is a story about a business that took your money and the money of the person who hurt you and watched what was happening and did nothing. Eleven women did exactly that. They waited nearly five years to bring their case. They sat through a three-week trial in a federal courtroom in Atlanta. They watched a corporate defense team from a national motel chain argue that the chain should not be held responsible for what its franchisee’s employees saw, signed…

A Hotel That Watched and Took the Money: What the Stockbridge Days Inn Settlement Really Means If you are reading this, you or someone you love may have been hurt at a hotel where adults should have stopped what was happening and did not. You might be the parent of a child who came home changed. You might be an adult survivor still carrying what happened in that room. You might be a relative wondering if what you suspect is enough to call a lawyer. We want to speak directly to that person, because the case in Stockbridge, Georgia is not an abstract news story. It is the same playbook that runs through the I-75 corridor, through every highway-adjacent budget motel, through every property that was warned and kept renting rooms. Our firm has built a trial practice around holding these operators and the brands on the sign accountable, and we want to walk you through what happened, what the law actually allows, and what you can do today. A Days Inn in Stockbridge, Henry County, Georgia, agreed to pay $5 million to two survivors of child sex trafficking who were 14 years old when the crimes occurred in March…
