Oriental in Edgewater. Busted
Police charged two women with prostitution and licensing offenses following a sting operation last week at an Edgewater massage parlor where detectives say undercover officers were offered sexual favors.
An Anne Arundel County Police detective said in charging papers that Nian Chen, 54, of Annapolis, and Meifang Shi, of Flushing, New York, were not licensed by the state to provide massage therapy despite working at Oriental Massage on Solomons Island Road. In addition, the women were charged with misdemeanor offenses stemming from their attempts to provide undercover officers sexual gratification following their massages, according to court documents.
The county police's vice unit was alerted by a "concerned citizen" who had seen "suspicious activity" at the spa, charging papers say, such as male customers parking "far away" at other businesses and walking a distance to a rear door, rather than the front.
After providing a massage, Nian, who is listed in business records as an owner of the parlor, offered to touch a male undercover officer's genitals in exchange for extra money, county police wrote in charging papers. She was charged with prostitution and practicing massage therapy without a license.
Without prompting, Meifang "attempted to perform a sex act" on another undercover officer after about 45 minutes of a massage, the charging papers say. She was charged with a fourth-degree sex offense, as well as practicing massage therapy without a license.
Don't know about all of that
[QUOTE=SyntorX;5854909]I think in most cases a "concerned citizen" is just jealous. Some married guy that is only getting leftovers (his wife) or some married lady that is worried her husband might actually be having a little fun. The other "concerned citizen" type is a religious man or women that wants to save us from committing a sin.[/QUOTE]I find it hard to understand with all of the real crime and drugs going on in AA county the cops would rather spent their resources on this bullshit? Money paid for an enjoyable service to a person just trying to make a living. Really sorry they had to close. Hopefully she will get the license thing straightened out and the charges dropped due to intrapment. Hope this doesn't develop into a "thing" at our other spots in the county too.
