Meagan Verschueren, Counsel at Singleton Schreiber, was featured by ABC 10 News in an article titled “San Diego Law Firm Announces Lawsuit Filed Against Multiple Motel 6 Locations for Alleged Sex Trafficking,” published on January 21, 2026.
In the article, Verschueren comments on a lawsuit filed on behalf of a California woman and her daughter against multiple Motel 6 locations and related entities. The lawsuit alleges that the defendants facilitated and knowingly profited from sex trafficking that occurred at Motel 6 properties across several California cities between 2018 and 2020.
The coverage addresses legal claims related to sex trafficking, corporate accountability, and alleged failures by hotel operators to identify and respond to trafficking indicators. The article highlights broader issues concerning the responsibilities of hospitality companies under state and federal law to prevent trafficking and protect vulnerable individuals.
“It is concerning that their suffering went on for so long with multiple hotel locations turning a blind eye, not only to a woman being openly trafficked for sex, but also to the foreseeable harm to her unborn baby,” Verschueren said.
