A Sioux Falls man accused of controlling a woman with drugs and forcing her to prostitute herself more than 100 times over the span of about five months has been sentenced to 2 ½ years in federal prison.
The Argus Leader newspaper reports that 36-year-old Michael Dickey was sentenced Monday.
Authorities say Dickey brought the woman to Sioux Falls from St. Cloud, Minnesota. They say he injected her with narcotics up to three times a day, posted ads for prostitution online and arranged for sex acts in hotel rooms or at his apartment.
