Miami sex ad photos lead deputies to a missing Texas teen, MDSO says. 3 arrested

Three people are locked up in Miami in connection with a human trafficking investigation that deputies say involve a 15-year-old girl who was reported as a missing runaway weeks ago in Texas.

On Friday, the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office Human Trafficking Squad, along with the Department of Homeland Security Investigations, found the teen after discovering a commercial sex advertisement featuring her photos in Miami, according to an arrest report.

Undercover officers sent a message to the phone number listed in the advertisement. The girl responded and agreed to meet at a predetermined location, the report read. Surveillance teams observed her being dropped off by a white Hyundai Kona, leading officers to conduct a traffic stop.

Inside the car were three people identified as Yasmin Cobb, 18, Josiah Sneed, 21 and Clifton Ray Foster Jr., 25, who all have Texas addresses listed on their arrest reports

All three were detained and taken to the HSI office for questioning. The teen was reported missing May 1.

Cobb, Foster and Sneed provided statements to investigators. None had legal custody or guardianship over the girl, authorities confirmed.

The trio was arrested without incident and transported to the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center. Court records show they have all since bonded out of jail.

They are charged with custody interference, a third-degree felony under Florida law related to kidnapping and human trafficking.
