One of the two Toronto-area men accused of running a massive sex trafficking ring was once charged with being an accessory in the notorious 2011 Nuit Blanche homicide.

RCMP investigators say the alleged flesh-peddling impresarios ran an organization that encompassed seven provinces forcing young women from Nova Scotia into prostitution.

The bust of Sanderico Rekel Beals, along with Malachi Almonzo Downey, culminated an 18-month probe and follows earlier charges against Lorenzo Trevor Thomas.

Cops alleged Thomas is associated with Halifax-area pimping gang North Preston’s Finest.

Beals, 29, who lives in Scarborough, was also arrested as an accessory in the 2011 gangland execution of Jefflin Beals, 25, (no relation) a career criminal from Nova Scotia.

The dead man was an aspiring dog breeder whose specialty was American blue nose terriers, a kind of pit bull. He sold the puppies for $1,000.

Sanderico Beals’ charges were stayed in 2012.

He also fell afoul of the law on gun and driving troubles on Oct. 6, 2013. The charges were withdrawn in 2015 but his co-accused pleaded guilty and was given a three-year jolt in the big house.

On the pimping beef, the RCMP said they learned last April that men from Nova Scotia had relocated to Ontario and were trafficking young girls from their home province.

The probe — dubbed Operation Hellbender — saw Nova Scotia Mounties travel “across the country in an effort to locate victims of human trafficking from Nova Scotia.”

Downey, 31, who lives in Vaughan, was arrested Friday, while Beals, of Scarborough, was nabbed Sunday.

They are charged with human trafficking, laundering crime proceeds and receiving material benefits from sexual services and human trafficking.

“By arresting and charging these human traffickers today, we are removing them from a position to exploit more young women and girls in Nova Scotia and across Canada,” RCMP Supt. Alfredo Bangloy alleged in a statement.

“Our goal is to get victims to safety and link them with resources and support to break the cycle of violence.”

Thomas, 31, was arrested by police in Niagara Falls, Ont., on March 27. He’s facing 17 charges, including trafficking in persons, assault, advertising sexual services and receiving a material benefit from sexual services.

RCMP officers worked with their provincial counterparts in British Columbia, Alberta, Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec and Newfoundland and Labrador, as well as Halifax Regional Police.
