Police responded to a call near midnight on Tuesday reporting a domestic disturbance on the 10 block of Airport Boulevard. When they arrived at the hotel, suspect Jourdan Marshaun had fled, but investigation revealed that Jourdan had met the victim through an adult website a year and a half ago and paid for her to live in Sacramento under the agreement that she would give him all her earnings as a prostitute, according to police.
