Sad ending to old Busy Bodies / Paradise and Scottsdale Massage
Sadly this is why massage places face high legal risk in Phoenix, with major busts in the past and ongoing in the courts. But this one where 22 gals in 3 popular parlors were arrested has after a long court battle come to an end with co-owners death. I knew Busy Bodes from its old location on Indian School Road before it moved to Scottsdale.
Sad Update: Busy Bodies Massage / Paradise Island Case against 24.
This is a criminal enterprise case against two owners and about 22 massage gals that started in 2010 for prostitution related crimes from 2008- May 2010, and indictment refiled on 1/28/2011.
Co-owner (women) pled to criminal enterprise and other charges and received a one-year in prison sentence almost a year ago. Co-owner (male) pled guilty to criminal enterprise and two other felonies in May 2012 but sentencing twice postponed with latest record 12/5/2012.
For co-owner (male)
On 12/5/2012 Court records show:
CASE DISMISSED. Courtroom SCT 6A.
State's Attorney: Annielaurie (same as Temple case against 40)
Defendant: Present.
The State having received Defendant's Death Certificate,
At the State's request and good cause appearing,
IT IS ORDERED dismissing this matter with prejudice.
Dave notes: Defendant present? Dismissed since he died. This is sad ending and the 12/5 was his sentencing but previously his 11/19/2012 hearing was continued as the Court had been advised he was deceased pending receipt of Death Certificate. I find his death announcement from May 2012. Just after he pled guilty. I can not find any reports if it was a suicide or not but probably would have been sentenced to more than a year in prison that co-owner got.
Other than one indicted defendant not yet found, everyone has pled out so no trial. Many were criminal enterprise felonies with often 6-12 months probation some pled to misdemeanors including one who may have just been receptionist taking money who only got sentenced to 1 day probation.
In 2010 it was reported:
Police seized $89, 000 in bank accounts, $19, 000 in cash and thousands of dollars in equipment.
Can you imagine going to a massage parlor and finding prostitution at the place?
After an 18-month investigation, Scottsdale police officers arrested the owners of three valley massage parlors after detectives found evidence that their businesses were being used as a front for prostitution. ABC News reports that the detectives were able to discover the alleged prostitution bases through an undercover operation.

Police also searched the home of Lxxxxxxxx and Mxxxxxxxx the business owners at the alleged prostitution sites. A police spokesman told ABC News that xx and xx encouraged employees to engage in prostitution and trained workers on ways to avoid getting caught by authorities.
Couple of Places Closed on Saturday
I decided to partake on Saturday afternoon and first went to the capital of Japan (new girls there) , and they were closed. Then over to USA Spa. Also closed. Not sure if this is permanent or not.
Ended up with Mimi at Tahiti. Nice time with a real O.

Latina Bodyworks + question about Euro Style Day Spa
I've been to LBW on T. Bird. Went for 30 minutes and was told it's $.6. I started walking away then she said they have a $.4 deal. Stayed but didn't look forward to the whole thing since it started with an up-sell. Anyway, a very average looking mid-aged Latina walks in with the usual paint-gun make up. Started with a decent massage then on the flip, she said $.6 for HE. Negotiated it down to $.4. She started a very unenthusiastic stroke. I stopped her and told her that's fine and to just finish the massage. She asked what's wrong, I told her it's too mechanical and I hate paying for a shitty service like that. She apologized and started a much more enthusiastic one and nude this time. While she's barely a 5 in the face department, she's a 9 in the ass department. The best booty I've seen in a long long time. Finished a bit overtime, she cleaned me up, bottle of water and on my way. They will try to rip you off but if you stand your ground, they'll come back to earth. I can't remember her name but pretty much everything on the menu.
Has anyone been to Euro Style Day Spa? Any extras offered there?
SE Corner Baseline and Dobson
Don't recall the name of the AMP but it is just around the corner from Albertsons facing Dobson. Didn't have the time for a BP girl so this sufficed for today. Went in and met by a short Chinese gal. She had a high pitched voice.
Typical house at 40 for a half hour and negotiated 40 for the tug. She did not like the mutual touch and always moved aside.
Her technique was good, slow with a slight tickle to the boys. 15 minutes later I popped. Not sure if I would repeat but another off my list. When I go now I don't even lay face down just on my back and they get the hint real quick. I don't go for the massage after all.
Cheers
