A homo who used a website to run a pimping and pandering sexual practice operation in which young women worked as prostitutes for drugs and money was sentenced Midweek to four years in land prison.

Christian Koalani, 67, pleaded guilty at an earlier hearing to conspiracy, pandering and furnishing a controlled substance to a pocket-sized.

One victim wrote a letter to the court, telling Judge Polly Shamoon that Koalani and his 23-year-old wife, Hannah Koalani, sexually assaulted and victimized her.

Deputy District Attorney Dan Owens said Christian Koalani has prior pandering and other convictions from 1985 and 1997.

Hannah Koalani likewise pleaded guilty and will be sentenced at a later engagement.

A tertiary person, 68-year-sometime Dale Vinzant, who ran the website, previously pleaded guilty and was sentenced to a year on electronic monitoring.

Acting independently but known to each other, Vinzant and Christian Koalani, used their website, San Diego Developed Services Provider, to post, annunciate and profit from paid sex acts, authorities said.

Customers used the online sex marketplace to contact women, negotiate transactions and post reviews, according to constabulary.

Koalani is the writer of "Story Of An American Escort," a novel based on his experiences in the secret sex trade.

When he met Vinzant near 10 years ago, Koalani was running a pimping scheme via his Facebook page and proposed moving it to Vinzant's website for their common benefit, police said.

Christian Koalani and Vinzant were arrested in June following a year- long investigation past the multi-agency San Diego Human Trafficking Chore Force.

Police said the online prostitution service boasted nigh 900 members at the time of the suspects' arrests.

To access the illegal services, members paid fees of roughly $fifteen a month or $100 per year, according to police force.
