ATLANTA (AP) - Fulton County prosecutors say a man has been sentenced on human trafficking and child exploitation charges.

Officials said in a statement Friday that 36-year-old Dwayne Shaw has been sentenced to life in prison on charges that also include pimping, aggravated child molestation, statutory rape and more.

Authorities say Shaw met the 15-year-old victim online in November 2012 and lured her into prostitution. Prosecutors say Shaw had the girl live at his southwest Atlanta home and raped and imprisoned her. Authorities say the girl was held for four days and police found her after she sent text messages to her relatives.
