In April 2023, the USA Department of Homeland Security informed Japan's National Police Agency that there were a series of cases where Japanese women were denied entry to the USA Over suspicions they traveled there for prostitution. This has brought the suspected involvement of domestic brokers in the scheme to the surface. Usui and others apparently told the women prior to their trips: "The USA Is tightening immigration checks. You should emphasize that you are on a trip by checking sightseeing spots in advance, among other steps. ".

A woman in her 20's who was introduced to prostitution in the USA Told the MPD, "I've had a yearning for the USA Since I was little." Another woman in her 30's explained to investigators, "I applied (for the job) because I was in debt from entertainment expenses."

This I believe is the district of AOC—- more for the licking I hear.

"The market of the sweethearts" sounds quaint. Like a euphemism out of the 1950's. Being NYC you figure they'd use a more descriptive name like Poundtown or Pussy Avenue.

I also would be a little wary of any hooker who thinks her desired demographic is at the 99 cent store.

Yes, I was thinking the same as I was reading it. However, that area has many immigrants, so maybe that name is an awkward English translation from another language, such as Spanish.

Good point, but a sleazy mongrel of a monger like me, who especially enjoys inexpensive street providers, would probably be interested (smile).

Today, I was reading a news report about rampant prostitution in the Corona, Jackson Heights and Elmhurst neighborhoods of New York City. Of course, the news report had to portray this situation as intrinsically bad and a horrible problem, but I was thinking that it may be good for hardcore mongers!

According to the news report, "prostitutes overrun every block," "prostitutes openly solicit sex from passersby," and one area "has become so renowned for its prostitution that locals have nicknamed the area 'the market of sweethearts,' and viral online videos advise prospective johns on how to make use of sex workers' services there". The report said that "sex workers" were seen "standing outside storefronts soliciting men". "Residents say the prostitutes usually take their clients into makeshift brothels for sex," "allegedly operate during all hours of the day," and "often hang out in front of area supermarkets". A local resident says "prostitutes blatantly flaunt their bodies on the streets at all times of the day". He continued: "They line up all along 90th Street in front of a pizzeria, a 99-cent store, and just try to pull men. You'll see multiple women in scantily clad clothing. Now it's cold, they are a bit covered up, but it will get worse in the summer". According to an anti-prostitution activist: "The cops won't arrest the Johns and the District Attorney won't prosecute the Johns". Personally, I think there should be an area like this in Honolulu!

Witness obviously was confused. It was a game room that was raided. Anyway, I've never heard of gaming machines in a massage parlor.

Roses at young street. Owner set slot machines (not free of course LOL) to make working girls spend boring times.

Past raids I heard from providers who off work that day said raid is cash collection. Last one I heard was mamasan had eight grand got taxed. Think: how do places operate broad daylight and advertise sucky fucky but no get bus? If I'm vice and want shut down advertising indies / AMPs, they all gone in 1-2 months tops. Bumbai you learn, pay officer friendly so no more raid.

HPD has not revealed any details on the operation, but a witness tells us they entered a massage business and removed what appeared to be numerous gaming machines.
