For this week's Warrant Wednesday we are assisting the Northeast Ohio Human Trafficking Task Force who is seeking the public’s assistance in locating a suspect indicted on multiple human trafficking offenses.

Dawud Sami, 42, was indicted on Dec. 7, 2022, in Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Court on six felony counts related to human trafficking, including trafficking in persons, compelling prostitution and promoting prostitution.   

Sami, who was born Thomas Bradford and is also known as “Officially GP” (“Officially Got Paper”), a rapper and music producer who owns a business called Red Karpet Entertainment on E. 185th Street in Cleveland.  

The Northeast Ohio Human Trafficking Task Force received tips from victims that Sami was operating a human trafficking ring and advertising sex for sale online. The subsequent investigation discovered that Sami bought multiple luxury cars and a home using his victims’ identities, while also branding the women with “Red Karpet” tattoos.

Anyone with information about his location or the case in general is urged to contact the Northeast Ohio Human Trafficking Task Force at (216) 443-6085 or submit tips through Crime Stoppers of Cuyahoga County at crimestoppers@cuyahogacounty.us.
