Police believe there may be more victims. Anyone with information about this investigation is urged to contact investigators at 905-453-2121, Ext. 3555. Information may also be left anonymously by calling Peel Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477) or by visiting www.peelcrimestoppers.ca.

In August 2022, Halton Regional Police charged Davis with a slew of sex trafficking-related charges, including trafficking a person under 18, assault, uttering threats and failure to comply with his probation order.

It was unclear if there was a resolution of those charges before a court. Halton Regional Police had yet to respond to an email from the Toronto Sun seeking an update.
