Wade was arrested at a Howard Johnson Inn in Maryland on April 25. Police said he was staying in a motel room where he was allegedly pimping a 17-year-old girl, the Daily Caller reported.
His arrest was part of a sting operation in which an undercover officer responded to an ad for an encounter with a 23-year-old woman allegedly placed by Wade in an online forum frequently used by sex traffickers and prostitutes.
"Holla at me. Quick stay specials tonight and tomorrow. Independent. Fun and sexy. Text me to set up an appointment???????" the ad reads.
Investigators said the woman turned out to be only 17 years old, and called Wade her "manager." She said Wade knew she was a minor but said "you only have 5 months left until you're 18 so I'm not worried."
She also said she gave all the money she earned to Wade, according to the Daily Caller's report.
"Someone that we had just started temporarily housing was involved in activities in the temporary housing we obtained for them outside of my knowledge that caused me to be arrested after they were as the person who booked, signed for, provided ID for, and paid for the room," Wade told the Daily Caller.
The police investigation suggests Wade was the person who communicated with the undercover officer via text message.
Wade issued a statement on Twitter regarding the charges.
"I was forced to make this statement before I was ready to because of ongoing efforts by Twitter 'trolls' to stop my work and the work of my organization," he wrote.
"For the past two to three days, 'trolls' have been actively baiting conservative news outlets to report on my arrest, amongst other vindictive things that they are actively working on."

Last year, the Washington Post included Wade in a profile of Black Lives Matter activists at the protests in Ferguson, Mo. after the August 2014 shooting of Michael Brown.
Wade was again in a Washington Post story in December of 2014 when he helped model Chrissy Teigen and singer John Legend donate food to protesters marching after the death of Eric Garner in New York City.
Wade has also worked as a stylist for Solange Knowles, sister of pop star Beyonce. He was also invited by the White House to a film screening with other Black Lives Matter activists. Wade did not attend the event.
Wade faces seven counts, including felonies and human trafficking. The charges carry sentences of up to 25 years in prison and a $15,000 fine.
Wade posted bail of $25,000 on April 27. He has a court hearing set for June 3.

Here's what I had to say to the fair-weather patriots at Freitbart:
I wish I could support the police. I wish they could have demonstrated to me that they were different than what they are accused of. I wish they could have demonstrated that the law comes first and that the Constitution is sacred. Years of selective law enforcement has brought this upon themselves. Wealthy criminals have blatantly and publicly demonstrated that they are too good to be arrested. The corruption at the top is putrid and its murdering and abusing of Americans, children, veterans, and the elderly are flaunted on the news and practically bragged about on Twitter and nothing has ever been done. So, ya it looks pretty hot in the kitchen now. I'm mystified at how nobody saw this coming.
I feel sorry for the good men and women who wear the uniform, but its honor has been soiled with decades of abuse, while those supposed good cops did nothing...out of fear I suppose. Double crossing people with guns and fancy lawyers and a corrupt bureaucracy to back them up is indeed hazardous. I get it. But, this is what fruition looks like.
Stand up or get out of the way, is my want for the police. America first means the Constitution wasn't supposed to come with a Bill of Privileges. There are people at the heart of this debauchery that should have been arrested years ago.
It's not too late. Plenty of people still support the good efforts of law enforcement, but the clock is ticking, isn't it?
PS: I guess it is technically spam now.
I can tell you about how they are currently trying to send me to prison for 20 years for something that is completely fabricated (assaulting a police officer).
I can tell you how they abducted me from my front porch, took me to a remote location, beat my ass, dislocated my arm, broke my teeth, then delivered me to a "doctor," strapped me to a table, threatened to pharmaceutically paralyze me and have me conscientiously intubated, or be dosed with dope so euphoric I would have volunteered to be gang raped (but never charged with a crime)...it goes on, and on.
My memory doesn't work any more, my teeth obviously don't grow back and I could barely move my right arm for the dislocation that never got treated for over a year (could be longer I've been mentally stuck in the same year for about 5 years now). They permanently f*ked me up, and now years later, they have the audacity to press assaulting a police officer charges against me in a separate incident where I demanded that doctors explain to me why my perfectly healthy father was intubated and put into a coma. There was nothing wrong with him and they have never explained why he was intubated. Never. But, my demanding an answer is tantamount to assault, while what they did to me was what? What they did to my father is what? Business as usual.
Not all Nazis were bad people. That would be the point I'm making.
I know I saw another recently, where the BLM BM BO was arrested for murder? Robberies? I forget, but they're far more common than the BFM will ever discuss.

Here is a guy - a pimp - that seems to have constant and long standing connections with celebrities and gets invites to the white house. Nobody in this world is connected by chance. If there is one thing you will learn about celebrities and politicians is that they are just the well-heeled tip of an iceberg of criminal hierarchy, of which police/feds/intelligence agents form a stabilizing lattice through which mafia organizations operate. The rest of us are a different layer of society, and the two layers only mix when someone commits a crime. Either they are promoted like this guy here or demoted to prison.
It can be no accident that he was inserted as a BLM organizer/activist early on for the entire purpose of being an informant. And when it was time for the govt to score points, he was conveniently popped for pimping a minor and the alt-right crowd goes wild since it "proves" what bad people these uppity blacks are.
This is a dirty trick by the Feds and cops straight out of the cointel playbook, and you can recognize it if you're not blinded by bias - but hey, I guess that's why it works.
Comment: According to an article carried at earnthenecklace.com, it's is not clear whether Wade was convicted or sentenced. The case was closed in 2016:
