A known human trafficker in California avoided facing charges after being seen throwing a woman who was aggressively protesting by kicking, screaming and fighting back, into the trunk of a car in 2023 only to be arrested later for his connection to an alleged murder suspect.

42-year-old Jason Nious evaded charges on two separate occasions in the same Oakland neighborhood: once when he was seen throwing a woman into the trunk of his Mercedes as she was "kicking and screaming," and once when he was caught driving around that neighborhood with a younger woman who may have been underage, reported the East Bay Times.
