On October 18, 1912, Johnson was arrested on the grounds that his relationship with Lucille Cameron violated the Mann Act against, ‘transporting women across state lines for immoral purposes.’ The charge was due to Cameron being a prostitute. Cameron, soon to become Johnson’s second wife, refused to cooperate with the authorities and the case fell apart. Less than a month later, Johnson was arrested again on similar charges. The second time the woman, another prostitute named Belle Schreiber with whom he had been involved in 1909 and 1910, testified against him, and he was convicted by a jury in June 1913. The conviction was despite the fact that the incidents used to convict him took place prior to passage of the Mann Act. He was sentenced to a year and a day in prison.
