A Norcross man has been convicted in a major human trafficking and gang investigation in Gwinnett County.

A release Thursday from Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr's office said Tyreek Raysheen Lee, age 27, pleaded guilty on November 20 in Gwinnett County Superior Court to 10 charges connected to the case. He has been sentenced to 10 years in prison with an additional 10 years to be served on "strict probation" following his release.

Lee was one of eight people indicted in the case against Last One To Take Over Gang. The suspects were alleged to have trafficked five female victims, including one minor, as well as recruiting others to join the gang.

The indictments were issued in February 2023 after an investigation by several agencies, including the Georgia District Attorney's Office, and the Gwinnett County Sheriff's Office.

“Our Human Trafficking and Gang Prosecution Units continue to produce meaningful results in the fight to combat violent crime,” Carr said. “While this is a much larger case, this latest conviction brings us another step closer to ensuring that justice is served. We will not tolerate the abuse and exploitation of our most vulnerable Georgians, and those responsible will be held accountable.”
