Former University of Alabama and Dothan high school basketball star Jim Farmer was among 16 people arrested in Tennessee on human trafficking charges after he allegedly solicited sex from minors, according to the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation.

The 55-year-old Farmer, who was a standout at Houston Academy and UA before being selected in the first round of the 1987 NBA Draft, was charged with trafficking a person for a commercial sex act and booked into the Rutherford County Jail.

Farmer, who lives in Franklin, Tennessee, according to authorities, was nabbed as part of a two-day undercover human trafficking operation in Rutherford County that began last Thursday.

Authorities placed decoy advertisements on websites “known to be linked to commercial sex,” according to the TBI. The agency said the operation was focused on identifying people seeking to engage in sex acts with minors.

Fifteen other men were nabbed in the undercover sting.

A first round pick of the Dallas Mavericks, Farmer played five NBA seasons with several stints in other leagues.
