I get daily google alerts for my name. Apparently some southern relatives had slaves who took the family name. ‘Cause some folk show up in the news. Today’s alert is for Samuel Dwayne Doolittle who was convicted of :

—” interstate transportation for prostitution and use of the internet to promote an unlawful business enterprise, namely, prostitution. Judge Flanagan sentenced Samuel to 135 months’ imprisonment followed by 5 years of supervised release, and to pay $52,900 in restitution to the victims.

Samuel was charged in a seven-count indictment on September 8, 2017, and pleaded guilty to two counts on October 17, 2018.

From early April until June 5, 2016, Samuel prostituted two victims and other women throughout the eastern United States. Samuel enticed the victims by false promises of financial reward, then took virtually all the money they earned and controlled them through violence, emotional abuse, and manipulation. Among other tactics, Samuel would not let victims eat or sleep without his permission, forced them to meet financial quotas, and threatened them if they disobeyed him. Ultimately one victim fled and contacted law enforcement while being prostituted in Fayetteville, North Carolina, and Samuel was arrested.”—
