An Army officer admitted to a military tribunal Wednesday that he organized a Fort Hood prostitution ring, preying on cash-strapped female soldiers at the sprawling Texas military base and hiring them to work “swinger parties, stripper parties” — according to the Austin American-Statesman.

Sgt. 1st Class Gregory McQueen told Judge Lt. Col. Rebecca Connally that he betrayed the trust of commanders who appointed him to be an advocate for victims of sexual abuse before pleading guilty to 15 counts of pandering and conspiracy to solicit prostitution. Through a plea agreement, other charges were dropped, but at least one more may be tacked on at a later date.

One one of the female soldiers involved in the ring said that it all began when McQueen began serving as her confidant, and told him about intense family and money problems. Not long after the two had sex, where the officer took photos of the act that he later showed to potential clients.

The female soldier had previously testified that McQueen arranged for her to have sex with Master Sgt. Brad Grimes, for $100.

All of this comes less than a year since McQueen was reprimanded and demoted for solicitation to commit adultery and conspiring to patronize a prostitute in March 2014.

Currently he faces a maximum sentence of more than 40 years in prison.
