Assistant principal of Queens elementary school charged for allegedly being a PIMP

The feds have arrested an assistant principal at a Queens elementary school for pimping out an online porn star based in California.

The assistant principal, Bond Ng, 47, is “in charge of testing and school safety” at P.S. 16, a school in the Corona neighborhood of Queens, according to the New York Times.

He was arrested on Sunday and charged with “coercing interstate prostitution” for reportedly enticing people to travel across state lines to engage in prostitution.

Speaking with federal agents following his arrest, Ng admitted to being the “manager” of an online porn star who lives in Los Angeles and to arranging for her to meet with her “fans” in his luxury Long Island apartment.

The catch was that Ng would pretend to be the porn star.

“Pretending to be the woman, Mr. Ng would communicate with prospective clients about how much she would charge, which he told one client was $2,000 per hour, with additional fees for specific sex acts or a filmed encounter,” the Times notes.

One of their most recent “dates” occurred in December, when Ng asked the porn star to fly to New York City to be with a client.

“The woman did not want to travel on account of the cold weather, but Mr. Ng told her that the client, who wanted to meet her for more than seven hours, had already paid Mr. Ng $10,000,” according to the Times.

“Thank you for letting me use your apartment,” the unnamed porn star reportedly texted Ng after the appointment concluded.

New York state Sen. Jessica Ramos has already called for him to be “removed from the school” where he works:

According to amNewYork, in an attempt to get Ng reprimanded to house arrest, federal prosecutors argued on Tuesday that Ng’s actions may be part of a wider human trafficking operation, given recent trips he made to Medellin and Cartagena in Colombia.

Lead prosecutor Assistant U.S. Attorney Daniel Amzallag was also convinced that Ng was “more coercive than we originally thought.”

“It’s arguable that the defendant groomed her [the porn star],” Amzallag reportedly said.

The porn star, identified as “Person-1” in the official complaint against Ng, was reportedly “inexperienced” with prostitution when Ng started pimping her out in 2021.

Defense attorney Michael Schneider of the Federal Defenders of New York pushed back in court by noting that the original charging documents made no mention of any coercion.

This argument worked, as Ng was released on bond without house arrest. The only stipulations were that he must not travel outside of New York, and he must not have anything to do with prostitution.

Local parents, meanwhile, are outraged.

“This is very dangerous for the kids,” parent Rosa Buri, the mother of an 8-year-old, told the New York Post. “I’m angry about it. He should never be around kids, and he should never come back here.”

“Are you f–king kidding me?” another parent, an anonymous father, exclaimed. “Damn. You hear crazy stuff like that all the time in New York.”

“This is so shocking,” a mother named Ana Garcia said. “I never thought he’d do something like that. I never thought about that. I can’t believe it. There’s a part of him I did not know because he doesn’t look like he’d do all those things.”

Luz Wallace, who reportedly has an 11-year-old son who attends P.S. 16, was left equally shocked.

“We don’t know about the other lives that some people live,” Wallace said. “He’s very nice, looking at him from here. But we don’t know about his family life.”

In a letter to parents, school officials reportedly said Ng has been “reassigned” pending the outcome of an investigation.
