A fourth, the Sands Inn in San Pablo, now not operates.

The lawsuit additionally names the Astro Motel in Santa Rosa.

“There is a federal statute that allows us to hold accountable and responsible any entity that knew or should’ve known that there was trafficking going on there,” mentioned Katie Llamas, an lawyer for the lady. “We believe that there was trafficking and that the hotels and motels had knowledge of it.
