News and Media Reports

[Stim69]

I feel it does and doesn't. The fact that you walk past other businesses shouldn't be a problem, you are going for a massage. I go to a probably semi normal place and get no service ever, I still think it might be possible but unrealistic, I just go because of one offhand comment 2 years ago and they are at a convenient location for me. There's no problem with me going in there. But if you act (or look) like you don't belong, that in itself gets you noticed. I've faced that scenario once in my ever so brief time doing this. I was so sure I found the next place that some late worker noticed me and probably saw me on a ring camera. I still came back the next week once I had more assurance of what the place was about and where it was.

Anyway, let's table that. Instead, let me expand on what I was describing earlier. Timeline. Now I'll never know exactly when a given place opened or closed, but I have reasonable assumptions in most cases. I will not discuss any location that hasn't already had action against it.

Q. Established approximately July 2024. By my understanding, this is the one that kicked the current era off. Some people said it would be padlocked by September. They self closed for awhile around December 2024 (likely dodging heat). But reopened at some point just in time to be a part of the dual HFS / Q takedown in April 2025. Service time to incident: 9 months. 1 arrest.

HFS. Established approximately October 2024. They also did a temporary shutdown but it didn't last long. People were calling for it to be shutdown because it was in front of a school. Service time to incident: 6 months, 1 arrest. Both locations have special note because unlike all others since, they actually remained in operation. HFS being down now is more in relation to the FS incident, but let's not jump ahead.

Ross. Established approximately December 2024. In a side business strip. Never ended up in the news. Assumed self closed, at some point their number was reused to redirect people to "Flower". Redirecting was confirmed in June 2025:6 months.

Four Seasons. Established approximately January 2025. Not too far from a playground which again had people going against them. But what I never saw anyone write is they were not exactly far from the police station either lol 3 minute walk away from Goodlettsville Police Department. Their incident occurred in September 2025. Service time to incident: 9 months - 1 arrest.

A Spa. Established approximately February 2025. Near some homes. I pulled into the wrong home's backyard early on haha. I joke but not really, and if I did that someone else probably did. Anywho, their incident. December 2025. Time to incident: 10 months - 3 arrests. Although we cannot deny that the robbery likely factored into this.

Rose Massage. Did not really have that name but that's what it was listed as. Established March 2025. In a family neighborhood I feel. My texts didn't get a reply in June 2025, so I mark that as the end date. No incident on the news. Service time to close: 3 months.

Lucky Spa. Did not really have that name but that's what it was listed as. Established May 2025. Another one just in a neighborhood. In fact, it might be where the pickup for JC just happened but I won't address that as a rumor. I never went, but did note at some point it was listed back on some rental site and I tried to report it as closed. No incident "technically". Service time to close: unknown, suspect 3 months.

66 Spa. Established approximately June 2025 and is the subject of today's discussion. Time to incident: 7 months - 2 arrests sorta (one on site, one elsewhere).

Floral Spa. The doom trigger. Established approximately November 2025. But they ran afoul of the feds in December 2025. Time to incident: 1 month - 2 arrests.

Royal Spa. The unfortunate victim probably because they got them because of what happened above. Unofficial open: September 2025. Never ended up on the news but regardless arrest made here, self close December 2025. Service time to incident: 3 months - 1 arrest.

There are a few more that probably belong in the closed without incident category but I've been slacking and haven't really confirmed anything after December issues. Plus all of those that may or may not be closed, I didn't actually like so couldn't be bothered to do a second verification check.

Near a school (HFS), in a playground (Four Seasons), in a strip mall (Ross), near a gas station (A), in a construction worker area (Q), some many reviews (A Spa), some few reviews (Four Seasons). They mostly got 6+ months no matter where they are. If they get less, they probably self closed without incident due to low business (or they had quiet arrests that nobody on this forum noticed). Or of course, the exception, made that oopsie in Mt Juliet. Perhaps someone sees something I do not. I've provided this information for anyone at all to correct any assumption I have made.

I believe nothing really matters. Or putting it another way, everything matters and there's a tolerance threshold but once it is crossed, here they go. More complaints makes it faster. And then the fact they are unlicensed makes it an easy nab whether they get them on prostitution or not, but they always do (except April 2025 somehow). All the L3 places are subject to this. They are all on a time limit and there's no real defense to their eventual end. And this is the cost they pay for us to have the fantasy of banging in a massage parlor.

The independent ones I wouldn't know but of the ones I do know, the "nice ladies" who are L1 only. They never get any of this and the 3 I know of are all varying levels of exposed. They're just actually licensed and don't offer anything on a first visit so they continue to pass any basic check. So I don't think it is quite the same to compare them to how long an L3 AMP stays in business here. There's no cover for the L3 AMP unless someone is actually licensed and tbh pretty sure unless they are all licensed, that also can get charges for anyone who isn't (18 Spa in March 23,2023, but that's before my time). The L1 ladies don't advertise on the really suspect places (sometimes they do maybe one then stop), so there's no mass gathering at their place to get handies.

Enjoy the L3 places if you have the urge, protect the independents, and just be out of there before the incidents occur. We know when they are taking it serious when it goes down like Mt Juliet, until then, it's onto the next location. Now I've given two possibilities based on time, this does not mean they will get hit. I simply shared that as a "don't be surprised". They are coming up on 9 and 10 months.

Ayasaki. What a nice synopsis. This really does sum it up. It is like the wild, wild, west out there. From what I've seen first hand, and been told, the AMP ladies do reach a critical point when it is (doom and gloom). Time isn't free for them nor on their side.

[Ayasaki]

I'm a firm believer that location plays a big part. I'm in that area a few times a week and to get into the front door, you have to walk past other businesses and it's visual from the main street. I've fumbled around trying to find the front door before and walking past other business windows, people see you. They don't have to guess where you're going when you're walking around like you're lost. Add the car dealership next door and that doesn't help. I generally try to avoid streets with public access that exposes you. The other spot near there was on a side street but when you pulled into the parking lot, it was obvious where you were going and why. Sites off the beaten path or away from the public view are my preference but you always have to keep safety and discretion in mind. Parking out front of a site can also put you on blast if you have a unique vehicle. Parking in rear helps when available like T lane. Independent providers with their own space is my preference. Been to Hermitage, Antioch, Murfreesboro, Mt. Juliet, Nashville, etc and I still always try to blend in and avoid high visibility locations. To each is own.

Stay safe,

Ling.

Haha! At below! Next article LOL.

However, there's not much point in me overanalyzing it. It's just a fun side thought. See ya at the next article haha.

A slow burn for sure but consistently not going away. I certainly don't disagree with you, and you are accurate on the timeline as we have talked about before. This one isn't a punch in the gut, like RS was.

Yeah, so I'm not personally affected but I do feel for those who this was their favorite location somehow (perhaps due to convenience). I hope they got the numbers of their favorites and can find them elsewhere if they manage to stay in the city.

One thing I will say is while this location was far more out there, I did kind of think maybe the complaints would be fewer because activity around that building wasn't exactly the best, so I thought the tattoo parlor would kind of keep the kind of people who would complain about this away. The parking lot had a lot of activity for going into any one of those businesses. But since I never went back, perhaps the growth of the business lead to too many guys stumbling out and making even them look out of place. People hanging out in front of the barbershop would see that. I feel like they probably see worse stuff weekly but never know if some wife type ended up seeing her husband go next door. Or too many dudes going like "UNNGHHHHHHHH" through the shared walls.

However, there's not much point in me overanalyzing it. It's just a fun side thought. See ya at the next article haha.

[Stim69]

It's still a slow burn though. I had suggested the next 3 locations to you based on time since operation, this one was in that grouping in December. It's going to display it as a quote but it's modified so it's not really like I can prove this was a true prediction. It's my usual self censorship but again let's be real, no one really talked favorable about 66 around here, it's complaints that did it. It has 9 reviews on RM, one was a week ago. And an unfavorable review in a similar time period on here from Pat Bateman69 and several other noncommittal responses to it, including myself. I'm sure they didn't see his review and go like "wow that one sucks, let's save everyone and close them" haha.

It's a little cruel on my part but the funniest thing is the article kind of proves his review. 300 for everything. They were overcharging with respect to others. And the fact that it was "everything" and not 1 hour fee + tip makes it sound like she did exactly what Duffman19 said, asked for the tip as soon as they entered the room. Not that it matters, they have them on impersonation whether they get the offer or not. This just makes a better news story.

6 months is around the ballpark of "we got enough complaints so we have to do something". It's not an actual math formula of course otherwise RS would have been fine, but I see that as more of an unfortunate side effect of who she was connected with. Same as always, I'm not going to tell someone to run out to any specific place after an incident. But you may notice the other two are overdue. Whether it is area or lack of interest I won't know, but just saying it's not a surprise to me either way.

So here's what I want to zero in on. Duffman said there were 4-5 girls working. There's only 1 location arrest, and 1 off location arrest (JC was the one who got arrested in April on Q's behalf). If there were 4-5 girls, they didn't get bothered. So pretty sure this was a mamasan and owner takedown. Not average workers. HFS kept going because of that and so did Q (albeit delayed). Will 66? Who knows, but probably not since the condoms are noted in the news article and that was absent in the HFS / Q articles. Any of these situations can escalate for sure, but I repeat as I've said before, unless there's mass followup, this is just the next one and business keeps going.

If I'm reading correctly though, JC's bond was apparently 20000 like HFS mamasan's was after the Mt Juliet raid. So I'm not trivializing the fact she got hit harder this time too. But LC was just two groupings of 1000.

Never seem to see a raid on Den of Bliss or Studio 22 though, both of which got recent reviews. But I assume their addresses listed are actually wrong and their appointment nature has delayed their downfall.

A slow burn for sure but consistently not going away. I certainly don't disagree with you, and you are accurate on the timeline as we have talked about before. This one isn't a punch in the gut, like RS was.

Yep they gone.

NASHVILLE TN➖ An undercover investigation, following reports and complaints regarding the establishment 66 Spa, located at 3221 Nolensville Pike, confirmed today the existence of prostitution activity at the location and resulted in the execution of search warrants at the business and residence of the spa. Presumed owner / administrator, on Valeria Street.

An undercover detective who visited 66 Spa today received a $300 offer for a sex services massage. The worker, Lin Chen, 50, was arrested on charges of prostitution and usurpation of professional identity (massage therapist). Registration of the establishment allowed the discovery of condoms, both new and used.

Alleged owner / manager of 66 Spa, 59-year-old Jing Chen, was arrested outside the premises for a felony of promoting prostitution. He had the keys to the business and the cell phone that received calls from 66 Spa.

Jing Chen had been on probation since October last year after being convicted of professional identity usurpation, a felony. That arrest was related to a prostitution investigation at another spa operating in South Nashville. As part of his probation, Jing Chen was banned from operating massage businesses. The prostitution promotion charge from last year's case was dismissed as part of his guilt plea for the offense of identity usurpation.

This investigation is being conducted by the Nashville Metropolitan Police Department (MNPD's Special Investigations and Special Victims Divisions.

They are trying to burn all of them down. Much like 2 decades ago.

If we were going by time since established, "D", "Flower", and 66 Spa are the next oldest.

Q (July 2024?), HFS(Oct 2024), Ross(Dec 2024), Four Seasons(Jan 2025). A Spa(Feb 2025) All of those are closed or raided.

"Flower" (March 2025), "D" (April 2025), 66 (June 2025), (the remainder of this shall be excluded)

66 is gone. Them ladies are looking old.

It looks like they are not letting up. I'd be careful what is shared on the boards. Just my opinion.
