AUBURN -- A Sodus man entered a not guilty plea in Cayuga County Court Tuesday to a grand jury indictment that he "knowingly advanced or profited from prostitution" with a migrant worker and unlawfully entered homes on Justin Drive in Fleming and Saxton Road in Venice Dec. 31, 2005.
Clarence Brown, 55, of 8668 York Settlement Road and currently held in Cayuga County Jail, faces the felonies of second-degree robbery and two counts of second-degree burglary and the misdemeanors of fourth-degree promoting prostitution and second-degree unlawful imprisonment.
Two women charged in the case have pleaded guilty to misdemeanors.
Sheriff's investigators said at the time of the three codefendants' arrests, that sexual favors for the workers, some of them from Guatemala, were exchanged for money, and that while workers were preoccupied, money and property were stolen from their residences.
Brown's bail was maintained at $10,000 cash or $20,000 bond. Motions in Brown's case are set to be argued June 12.
