Three men who allegedly forced a 16-year-old girl into prostitution have been indicted by the O'ahu grand jury on charges including sexual assault and promotion of prostitution.

Circuit Judge Derrick Chan set bail for Marcus X. Arrington at $250,000 after he was indicted on charges of second-degree sexual assault and first-degree promotion of prostitution.

Bail for the other two defendants, Anthony Fuller and Brad Y.K. Young, was set at $200,000.

Fuller was indicted on charges of third-degree promotion of prostitution and third-degree promotion of a detrimental drug. Young faces the same drug charge.

According to police reports, Arrington allegedly headed a prostitution ring that advertised in Craigslist's "Erotic Services" category.

He allegedly forced a runaway girl to work as a prostitute in December, according to police.
