10 TV: A man faces charges after deputies said he was caught running a brothel from his home on the city's southeast side... In addition to allegations that Christopher Cobbs sold sex from his Pendent Lane home, investigators say a prostitute working out of his house was an underage teenage girl.
Detectives said they set up communication with Cobbs through e-mails, and inquired about Internet advertisements that offered prostitutes at his residences... According to a search warrant, an undercover detective went to Cobbs' house, paid $150, and was led to an upstairs bedroom where a 16-year-old girl waited to have sex with him.
Investigators said the teenage girl was a runaway who later admitted that Cobbs took nude photographs of her and posted them on the Internet to advertise prostitution... Neighbors were dumbfounded by the allegations that a brothel was operating so close to their homes. Cobbs was charged with promoting prostitution and was released from custody as investigators consider the possibility of additional federal charges…
