A Langley woman has been charged with 14 counts related to human trafficking, including assault, after a months-long investigation by local RCMP.
Jennifer Lynn Stephens is in custody awaiting her next court hearing. Persons charged with a criminal offence are considered not guilty until the charges are proven in court.
The investigation began on March 7 this year with a 9-1-1 call from a gas station near a hotel in the 20400-block of 88th Avenue in the Walnut Grove neighbourhood.
