"According to statements made on the record, the pair classified a hookup website where they posted prostitution advertisements, including that of an underage girl in her teens."
"Prosecutors said that the crimes were that much more disturbing since Dicastro worked at the Central NY Psychiatric Center in Marcy, a max security facility."
"Court records show that on Nov. 16, Dicastro ordered Cordero to rob a person at gunpoint, during which he threatened to shoot them if they did not hand over their belongings."
"As alleged, a DOCCS employee and her significant other ran a prostitution operation that spanned from Manhattan to upstate New York, District Attorney Alvin Bragg said."
Deanna Dicastro, a corrections employee, and her partner Gilliam Cordero were indicted for operating a prostitution ring that involved pimping out a minor. They used the website Megapersonals to post advertisements, including for an underage girl. The couple directed females to hotels in Manhattan and the Bronx for sex acts. Dicastro worked at a psychiatric center for mentally ill inmates, while Cordero was a violent felon recently paroled. The investigation is ongoing, with prosecutors emphasizing the severity of the crimes, particularly the involvement of a child.
