Sex Crimes to Include Human Trafficking Rack Up $2.5 Million Dollar Bond

Kirk Kadeem's charges relate to prostituting the minors for the purpose of sex trafficking.

Cumberland County Sheriff’s Detectives have filed additional sex charges against a jailed Fayetteville man, increasing his bond to $2.5 million dollars up from $1.9 million dollars.

Kirk Kadeem, 22, has been held in the Cumberland County Detention Center since 2012 after he was charged with harboring a 14-year old girl and forcing her to engage in sexual activities. He now faces additional charges. They are five counts of statutory rape and one of second degree kidnapping involving a separate case. The other youth was also 14-years old. Kadeem was arrested back in May while staying at his grandmother's residence.

Kadeem is expected to make a first court appearance on these latest charges on Friday, August 23, 2013 at 2:30 p.m. in the Detention Center Courtroom.
