OGDEN — Two people have been charged with a dozen felonies, including human trafficking, engaging in a pattern of unlawful activity, money laundering and exploiting a prostitute.

The Utah Attorney General's Office on Monday filed under seal charges against Lynnsie Reddish, 20, and Terrance Chavez Jones, 31. Both were charged in Ogden's 2nd District Court with aggravated kidnapping, a first-degree felony; engaging in a pattern of unlawful activity, a second-degree felony; four counts of human trafficking-forced sexual exploitation, a second-degree felony; four counts of aggravated exploitation of a prostitute, a second-degree felony; money laundering, a second-degree felony; and aggravated assault, a third-degree felony.

The attorney general's office has asked they be held without bail, according to court records.

Other documents, such as a probable cause statement outlining the basis for the charges, were sealed.

The Utah Attorney General's Office declined comment Monday, saying more information would be released at a later date.
