The media elites and those in Washington like to continue to act like we don’t have a massive problem with child sex trafficking in America, and yet here we are with more proof that the problem is at the highest levels of American corporations and government.
The 59-year-old CEO of a California-based food company has resigned after being accused of soliciting and engaging in sexual relations with two teenage girls.
Ian Charles Schenkel, of Newport Beach, stepped down from his role as chief executive of Haliburton International Foods on Friday. The company, which Schenkel founded in 1992, replaced him with Dan Glick, longtime management and financial adviser to the company, according to the firm’s announcement.
The company declined to comment beyond its official announcement regarding Glick’s appointment.
Just a few days before Schenkel formally resigned, he was charged with engaging in prostitution with a 15-year-old girl and 16-year-old girl, according to the Orange County District Attorney’s Office.
Schenkel is charged with one felony count of unlawful sexual intercourse, one felony count of sexual penetration with a foreign object with a victim under the age of 16, one felony count of oral copulation of a person under the age of 16, one felony count of a lewd act on a child 14 or 15 years old, one felony count of unlawful sex with a minor at least three years younger than the defendant, one felony count of sexual penetration with a foreign object of a victim under the age of 18, and two misdemeanor counts of soliciting prostitution of a minor, according to the Orange County District Attorney’s Office.
He was arrested and released after posting $100,000 bail. If convicted on all counts, Schenkel faces a maximum sentence of eight years in state prison as well as 728 days in county jail.
Amanda Emilia Perez, 22, was also charged with pimping and pandering for arranging to bring the underage girls to Schenkel, the DA’s office said.
