A man who has been arrested multiple times in a scheme involving human trafficking and diaper changes has had his bond revoked in a Jefferson Parish case.
According to online court records, after Rutledge Deas IV, 35, was arrested in connection with a Lafayette human trafficking case, his bond in a separate case in Jefferson Parish was revoked.
According to court records, Deas is accused of human trafficking by faking a disability for nannies to change his diapers between June 2025 and October 2025.
Records show Deas failed to consistently check in with his probation officer since the court received his case in January 2024.
The judge ordered Deas to nine years in prison.
