Has anyone googled this chick? With the pic and name from the one picture. Was she really on the tv show biggest loser? And she has some arrests for throwing flour in her tenants face also?

Its just a game. One of the locations that was busted last year was open in the same location with a new name. My current fave, Sky Spa has been an AMP for as long as I can remember. Like 40 years or more. I'm confident that it will reopen shortly if it hasn't already. The other two were fairly new and half-assed Chinese parlors from the reports I've read.

There's a Chinese parlor just north of the Ohio border in Monroe County for a few years now. Located in a busy strip mall. The other businesses have to be raising hell about it.

This cycle keeps repeating til they rack up enough to start somewhere else as new leaf but usually if their revenues are good they stick around longer; supply and demand chains.

So, no actual "human trafficing" Was the intel that poor or was it all just a ruse to get rid of a business they just didn't like?

Maybe they should relocate to Monroe, retain their clientele and maybe gain some new customers.

A little early for the usual "election" season LEO activity. They got my fave this time too.

The cliffs notes version for any that does not want to do the homework themselves:

4 parlors busted.

4 Mamasans / managers arrested. No providers. No dudes.

At least two (probably 3) made bail and had hearing dates scheduled.

The location of 2 of them was not a good fit. Both in visible strip malls with other legitimate business. Next to a bakery and another on a busy road near lots of retail (and was busted last year).

Like last year, the probable results:

$150 fine and 30 days..

A word of caution if you are going south of the border. The same thing happened last November in that area.

Well never see them in Toledo again.

Providers will probably all be moved to another location out of state.

Well, it seems Verizon has stopped blocking this site. Forgot to turn on my VPN and to my surprise, loaded right up. First time in months.

IDK if it was a coincidence, but I switched my DNS to static 8. 8. 4. 4 and the site loaded.

This might be newsworthy for anyone who had any recent dates in the Hartland area.

Yet another example of what not to do. When will pimps learn to never leave a list of prostitution pricing, location, and menu of sexual acts in an unsecure backpack that your estranged wife can find?

Man, if I had a nickel for every time I heard that story.

Sobering article, but I don't remember seeing any listings in Hartland. I've seen one girl a couple of times in Howell but never Hartland.

If you take the time to read the article, it alleges that he was operating between September 2022 and May 2023 when the warrant was served. Article was published in August 2023.
