Alan Li, a doctor in Miami, has been accused of moving small amounts of drugs
On March 12, federal authorities started looking into the 26-year-old man after an escort Li met on a dating site told them he was looking for underage women in Miami. The dating site is where the escort met Li.
Li messaged the woman on Snapchat and told her he was trying to help a friend named Michael Chen. Li had heard from someone else that the woman had been a victim of human trafficking herself. When asked about the age range of the women he was looking for, the affidavit says that Li said, “Ideally, 8 to 15.”
The woman told the agents that Li and Chen were the same people. The agents checked this out and found it to be true. A private investigator posed as the woman and took over her Snapchat account so he could talk to the man.
An undercover agent pretending to be a trafficker was given Li’s phone number. He is said to have talked to a 13-year-old girl about a “long-term arrangement” similar to a “live-in scenario” he said he had in the past. Instead of using CashApp, Li asked if the $500 payment for having sex with a child could be made with either Bitcoin or cash. The representative said I have a 9, 12, and 15, depending on what kind of service you want. He also mentioned a one-time payment of $20,000 to buy a girl who would be 12 years old at the time of the deal.
