Police in the Region of Peel have charged 19-year-old Henry Igboenyesi in connection with a human trafficking investigation after finding a woman reported missing in an Airbnb in Mississauga.
Peel police said they located the woman reported missing at the Airbnb on October 6. The woman was found alongside the suspect and was “in a state of crisis,” according to the authorities.
She told police the man had taken control of her identification and bank accounts and that he had physically assaulted her.
Igboenyesi faces multiple Criminal Code charges, including advertising sexual services, communicating for the purpose of obtaining sexual services, exercising control, trafficking in persons, choking or suffocating, withholding or destroying documents for the purpose of trafficking, receiving financial or other benefits from trafficking, receiving material benefits from sexual services, and breach of recognizance. He has been held for a bail hearing.
Several media outlets in southwestern Ontario have tied Igboenyesi’s arrest to two similar arrests in the Niagara region, calling the arrest part of a wider “human trafficking investigation.”
Earlier this month, police arrested 43-year-old Christopher St. Louis and 18-year-old Samantha Rizzardo, both of Niagara Falls, in the case involving a woman under the age of 18.
In a case that is believed to be unrelated, St. Louis was also charged with indignity to a body after a 22-year-old woman was found dead behind a building in Niagara Falls.




He will be free with no bail and can look forward to a light sentence.
"Held for bail" with charges like that, it should have been shot on sight. The need to fix their headline. Says "woman found in Toronto", but then the story goes on to say "found in Mississauga". Which was it?
