Cortez “Tez” D’Angelo Dennis took a deal and pleaded guilty on Feb. 17 to pimping, a felony, according to Jefferson County court records. That deal dropped a second felony charge of human trafficking for sexual servitude from his case.
Dennis, 32, was sentenced to six years in the Colorado Department of Corrections for the pimping charge, court records show.
The Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office arrested Dennis in September 2025 after an undercover officer set up a meeting with two women through an ad on Secret Hostess, a commercial sex website. When the women showed up to the meeting at a house in the 1600 block of South Golden Road on Jan. 22, 2025, they were met by sheriff’s officials and victim advocates.

Investigators traced Dennis’ operations to a house in the 4500 block of South Jebel Court in Centennial, the address of which was linked to his Venmo account, according to the affidavit.
