FORT MILL, S.C. - Eleven female employees were
arrested and face prostitution charges for performing sex acts on
customers for money after police raided two massage parlors here
Wednesday.
Six of the women were working at Lady Luck Spa, where three men
were getting massages when police raided. One man was arrested and
charged with solicitation of prostitution, authorities said.
"We checked every room and let people get dressed," said Lt.
Jason Dalton of the York County drug unit conducting the raids.
"Everyone was cooperative."
Five other women were arrested at Gold Hill Spa, police said.
They had no customers at the time.
The charges carry fines up to $200 or 30 days in jail for the
women, police said.
The two spas' owners, who investigators are still trying to
identify, could face similar prostitution charges.
Police said they received several complaints from residents,
including some from wives claiming their husbands were visiting the
spas. Undercover agents then found employees were collecting at
least $100 for half-hour sessions that included offers of sex
acts.
