Nevada man sentenced to 13 years for soliciting children into prostitution

LAS VEGAS, Nev. (KOLO) – A Las Vegas man has been sentenced to more than 13 years in prison after being found guilty of soliciting multiple children into prostitution.

Denzel Renyal Micheal Loyd will serve 15 years of parole after his release. He was convicted of four counts of coercion and enticement after the DOJ says he used Facebook to contact minors and solicit them into engage in sexual acts. They say he also sent them sexually explicit images and videos of himself, asking them to prostitute themselves on his behalf.

“Today’s sentence reflects the seriousness of the offense,” said United States Attorney Sigal Chattah for the District of Nevada. “Over the span of a few months, the defendant, a self-described pimp, solicited numerous minors to send him sexually explicit photographs and videos of themselves, induced them to engage in various sex acts – at least one victim complied to his sex demands in exchange for food, and attempted to convince the victims to engage in prostitution. The U.S. Attorney’s Office continues to work closely with the FBI to protect our youth from predators, and we will seek justice for victims.”

Loyd will also be required to register as a sex offender after his release.

Oregon lands commitment from Nevada punter

Oregon has found its next Australian punter.

Bailey Ettridge, who averaged 44.66 yards on 47 punts at Nevada this season, committed to transfer to the Ducks on Sunday. He has three seasons of eligibility remaining.

From Lara, Australia, Ettridge had 15 punts over 50 yards and 18 inside opponents’ 20-yard lines this season. He also had two carries for 26 yards, both of which converted fourth downs.

Ettridge replaces James Ferguson-Reynolds, who is averaging 41.64 yards on 33 punts for UO this season. Ferguson-Reynolds and Ross James are both out of eligibility after the season.

Ettridge is the first scholarship transfer to Oregon this offseason and his addition gives the Ducks 81 projected scholarship players in 2026. He is the lone punter presently on the roster.

No. 1 Indiana (14-0) vs. No. 5 Oregon (13-1)
