Montgomery County police on Friday announced they had charged four people operating spas and massage parlors in Rockville that authorities say were fronts for prostitution and human trafficking.
The arrests were the result of an investigation that began in September during which detectives noted what police said in a press release was “a dramatic increase in the number of acupressure and massage parlor advertisements in the adult section of internet sites that cater to adult services.”
Police said detectives used a new Maryland law that permits wiretapping for investigations that involve human trafficking. They also said they had received a number of complaints about illegal operations at the businesses.
Those charged were:
• MR W who operates Executive Body Work at 966 Hungerford Drive in Rockville. He was charged with conducting prostitution and human trafficking.
MrX who operates Tropical Spa at 620 Hungerford Drive in Rockville and Best Massage at 966 Hungerford Drive in Rockville. He was charged with human trafficking and conducting prostitution.
MrY who operates Pink Spa at 932 Hungerford Drive in Rockville. He was charged with conducting prostitution.
MRZ who operates Ya Ya Spa at 751 Rockville Pike in Rockville. She was charged with human trafficking and conducting prostitution.
Well, sooner or later, if they keep on advertising themselves on BP, the LE will be on to them. I mean, its all a matter of time. I for one wouldn't advertise on BP. Sometimes, I see like at least 15 ads from those messages parlors in a single day.
Sucks for my uncle though, since he doesn't use BP, but know those message parlors by word of mouth. Man, he's a hard working blue collar dude that just wants to enjoy himself. He's technology illiterate, and rarely uses the computer. Plus, those message places are typically only 2 bills for full service. The LE knew they were doing it, but, they yield to the neighborhood complaints. The final straw was the spamming of BP ads. I mean, the even put their address on the BP ads, go figure.
Was watching "Full Metal Jacket" when I read this thread. I saw a screening that had Mathew Modine as a guest speaker. As far as the AMPs getting raided I don't think much about it. I've never used one and it seems like there are to many hoops to go through to get FS.
an other providers. If you want to avoid the loops to get FS, call them from the ad, and mentioned you saw them from the ad. What they do is, when you arrive at the location, don't go in, but call them from your car. They'll tell you to come in within 5 minutes and tell them your name, and whame bame, thank you mam.
What my uncle did was got word of mouth from his friend. He went in to the place and got a message, then he indicated special service, and the message girl agreed that very same day.
Too bad you can't use this advice, since they are being taken down.
the Hobby Play Book. Im all for ending this sort of cruelty.
Whatdoes concern me is that you failed to recognize that the girls are victims of crueal acts yet it saddens you that your knowledge will no longer assist others (knowingly) participating in human cruelty to further gratify oneself....not a good sign.
messages. Hell, if you read the BP ads, they even instructed what I mentioned. Which is, call them before you arrive and call them when you arrive. I didn't make that up, they were bold enough to state that in their ads. I am only stating what I saw in the ads.
As for my second input about have full service at the parlors, really? Is this new to you? I don't think so, everyone knows these full service massages are everywhere, and that is the general way of getting FS. You make the indication that you want FS to get FS, otherwise, how you they are able to know?
"Your all for ending this sort of cruelty". Please do not use cruelty to describe this type hobby. Cruelty has a definitive term, and you used it improperly. Know, your all for ending this sort of cruelty, well, do you hobby? How is that different from massages? Massages provide a more secure place for the girls because it is a private establishment. No message parlors have ever been robed before by a client, and no client has never paid before. So, the message parlors actually better than indy and agencies where you meet providers at the hotel.
If you all for ending this type of cruelty, then I would suggest you not see any providers, its no difference then massage parlors. "Fail to recognize that girls are victims of cruel acts", first, the message parlors are a public institution. In order to be a message therapist, a person has to have the required training and be certified to even practice this field in a public institution such as a message parlor. So, the girls are there on their free will, and no one is forcing them to be there.
When they are practicing standard messages, they provide FS to supplement their income. No one is forcing them to provide FS, and they can deny their request. As a matter of fact, they have the right to tell the client to leave for solicitation. So, they have more leverage than providers.
"it saddens you that your knowledge will no longer assist others", first, take a look around you and examine yourself before you pose that statement. You are in an erotic forum, where ideas, suggestions, and request are exchange for the sole purpose of erotic entertainment. I am not sadden, and you should not use that word to describe how I feel. Sadden is an emotional state and has cycles. You have misused that word to label me. If you recall, I said that "it sucks for my uncle", and I'll translate that for you if I wasn't clearer. That means, it is he that is disappointed, and not me.
I appreciate your comment, and I only wanted to be clear as to where I stand before you label me in such a manner. Thank you for your concern, and I myself will try to be sensitive to other people next time I post. Respectfully, McDonald.
I must be doing something wrong because I've been to a couple of these places and never got FS. Or even partial service.
Are they like an internet cafe?
,but I doubt if it's like an internet cafe.
Ads for many of these and similar places remain active on CL and BP.
