A Fall River woman known as “Lula” pleaded guilty Wednesday, April 8, in federal court in Boston to her role in a sex trafficking ring involving two minors and one woman that operated out of a Somerset motel.

Christy Parker, 28, who prosecutors allege was one of the ringleaders of a sex trafficking operation that spanned three states, pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit sex trafficking; two counts of sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion; and one count of sex trafficking a minor.

Parker was among six people arrested and charged in July 2024 with sex trafficking three victims in Massachusetts, Rhode Island and South Carolina. She has remained in federal custody since.
