LONG BEACH >> A 25-year-old convicted pimp was sentenced to 33 years in state prison this week, the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office announced.

Eric James Avery’s sentence was handed down Wednesday in Long Beach Superior Court. Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Tomson Ong also ordered Avery to register as a sex offender for life.

In August, a jury convicted Avery of pimping a 16-year-old girl and human trafficking of a minor for a sex act as well as additional gang enhancements. He is reportedly a member of the Baby Insane Crips gang.

Avery’s co-defendant, Lebrette Stacey Winn, 23, was sentenced in September to 47 years and four months to life in state prison after being found guilty of two counts of pimping, two counts of pandering by procuring and one count each of human trafficking to commit another crime, sodomy by use of force, forcible rape, aggravated mayhem and kidnapping.

Winn and Avery were arrested after two women escaped from a locked car in Culver City on May 15, 2013. The women, then 18 and 20, ran to a good Samaritan and he drove them to a nearby police station where they reported the abuse.

When Long Beach Police investigators found Winn and Avery, Avery had a hotel key in his pocket that led detectives to a hotel room in Inglewood where they found the teen girl who said she had been working as a prostitute for Avery.

During Winn’s trial, it was revealed he forced one of the women to tattoo his pimp moniker and a dollar sign — Chop Suey Fab $ — on her forehead as punishment for wanting to go home and for not making enough money.
