Billings Man Sentenced For Building “Sex Slave Dungeon”

It is like something straight out of "Pulp Fiction." A Billings man built a "stone dungeon" in his basement, in hopes of purchasing two sex slaves and keeping them there. Why do all of the strange Montana stories come out of Billings?

According to the Billings Gazette

A Billings man will spend seven years in prison for attempting to purchase two women to use as sex slaves in what he called a “stone dungeon” he built in the basement of his Billings home.

Steven Currence pleaded guilty in U.S. District Court in Arizona to one count of attempted sex trafficking as part of a plea agreement with the U.S. District Attorney’s office. He was sentenced Sept. 10 to seven years in a federal prison, with three years supervision after his release. He will then be required to register as a sex offender.

Eight years? That is all he gets for attempting to enslave human beings for his own sexual pleasure. That sounds like a least a life sentence, if not death penalty. I guess since he never actually purchased a slave, then he didn't commit the crime, but 8 years is taking it a little light on the guy. Could you imagine running into him a couple years down the road? "Hey Steve! Out buying more ball gags and duct tape I see?"

According to court documents, Currence met with the undercover agent on March 6, 2014, at his Billings residence and showed the agent a “stone dungeon” he had created to house the “slaves.” The basement contained a heavy wooden cross, whips, chains and other restraint devices. The windows were covered by insulation. Currence pointed out to the agent where he was planning to install cages to hold the women.

The court documents do not say where the house is. However, according to Yellowstone County property tax records, Currence owns three houses on one block, at 2914 Third Ave. S., 305 S. 30th St. and 312 S. 30th St.

Currency intended to buy two slaves, one whom he would chain to his bed, and the other whom he would chain in the basement. He said the chains would be long enough for the woman to reach the bathroom, according to court documents.
