Former Abercrombie & Fitch CEO Mike Jeffries, his partner Matt Smith, and Jim Jacobson were arrested in a sex trafficking investigation involving over a dozen victims, according to federal prosecutors.

The trio is accused of running an international sex trafficking and prostitution ring from 2008, recruiting young men for sex parties under the guise of career opportunities.

Many victims were allegedly coerced into sex acts with promises of modeling jobs, ABC News has reported.

The defendants face charges of sex trafficking and interstate prostitution, with more victims expected to come forward.
