Two men accused of running a brutal teen sex racket - where the pimps marked one girl in their stable with a facial scar, and traded other girls like baseball cards - were convicted yesterday of human trafficking in federal court in Boston, officials said.

Darryl Tavares, 26, of Revere and Eddie Jones, 26, of Dorchester, after a 10-day trial, were each convicted of conspiracy to traffic women in interstate commerce for the purpose of prostitution, and transporting minors in interstate commerce for the purpose of prostitution. They each face up to 20 years in prison, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Boston.
