Three people were arrested Wednesday in connection with a "sophisticated high-end brothel network" that allegedly catered to an elite clientele in Greater Boston and Eastern Virginia, including politicians, corporate executives, doctors, military officers, lawyers, professors and scientists.
Acting United States Attorney Joshua Levy said the brothel ring facilitated the movement of predominantly Asian women across the United States.
"This commercial sex ring was built on secrecy and exclusivity, catering to a wealthy and well-connected clientele," Levy said. "Business was booming, until today."
Those clients submitted personal information to identify themselves and often paid a monthly fee to participate in the club, which allegedly charged rates of $350 to $600 or more per hour for prostitution services, Levy said.
"Once the buyers were verified, they were texted and then allowed to place orders with commercial sex workers. They would choose the duration of the encounter they wanted, the types of services they wanted, and they also would receive a menu of different options and different women they could purchase," Levy said.
