Mark Pinnock, 32, was sentenced to 33 months followed by three years supervised release on Friday, Jan. 5, after pleading guilty to one county of witness intimidation in October 2023, the US Attorney for Massachusetts said.
Pinnock served eight years in prison for sex trafficking in 2014.
After his release in July 2022, the man worked as an Amazon delivery driver while under federal supervision, officials said.
A woman who worked as a custodian at a condo building reported Pinnock to the police after he showed his penis to her while delivering a package.
His term of supervised release for the 2014 case was revoked by the US Probation Office, and he returned to court for a hearing on the recent case.
One week before that hearing, Pinnock asked someone to go to the complex on his behalf during the woman’s working hours.
The person claimed he worked for the state and told the woman not to go to court, while standing with his hand in his pocket as if he had something in it, prosecutors said.
Pinnock also used an encrypted massaging app to send anonymous messages to a security officer at the complex to let the woman know she’d be arrested by immigration officers if she went to court.
He then called immigration officials three separate times to have the woman deported and falsely claimed that she was a gang member.
