What the shop owner next door was thinking:
"Dang! I could have been going there on my breaks! You mean they'd give you a handy for just a tip? Those babes were smokin' hot. I got to find me one of these places in Sandy Springs or Atlanta now. ".

Posts: 70I wish one of these would go to trial.
I am curious what evidence they really have. Like most of you guys, I'm just very skeptical that these BMW driving girls are being trafficked. More likely fighting TRAFFIC on their way to Starbucks.

Nothing will ever replace the easy cash grab of 1:1 turnstile service until AI / virtual is indistinguishable from the real thing, and half the cost.
100% spot on that post-pandemic it's just not the same, but hope springs eternal!
Regarding massage licensing in Roswell, can first hand confirm it has slowed ramp up (via a colleague) who expected to grow Q1 by adding services/locations in shared health/wellbeing spaces (along side hair dressers, aestheticians etc.)
They're painting with a broad brush and affecting innocent entrepreneurs.

Not sure who'd want to take that case but if it appeared lucrative, even as a long shot, there would be attorneys doing it by now.
When the government wants to shut your business down, they have dozens of ways to do it and litigating a municipality is frighteningly expensive and time consuming. Most small businesses do not have the resources to do this. Ask anyone who's tried to litigate on zoning, inspections, etc. Trust me, it's a nightmare.

The Roswell massage shop shutdowns are the result of a combination of the City (Mayor, Police and City Council) plus overly active and obsessive "concerned" citizens. Fulton County has been supportive and was represented by District Attorney Fani Willis at the September 22,2022 Roswell Press Conference. Interestingly, ALL of the arrests and compliance violations were made by Roswell Police Department.
The "Landlord Letters" sent primarily in Cobb County, are all from the State of Georgia Attorney General's Human Trafficking Prosecution Unit led by a former Cobb County and DeKalb County Assistant District Attorney, who was appointed to the position of Chief of Human Trafficking Prosecution Unit in June 2019, subsequent to their formation by Georgia Governor Brian P. Kemp and Attorney General Chris Carr.
The vast majority of these shops had no arrests and / or any other prior legal issues, but the letters to the Landlords included online reviews and advertisements serving as the "cause". Unfortunately, the Landlords did not challenge the admissibility of the "evidence" they received and instead took immediate action against their massage shop tenants and terminated leases without any due process whatsoever.
