A group of massage therapists in Florida have been arrested amid claims they offered to perform sex acts to undercover detectives during a two-day sting dubbed 'Operation Skin So Soft'. During the two-day operation, which began this past Monday, undercover detectives went to 22 different Asian massage parlors around Polk County to get massages from licensed therapists. But 20 of those women - who are all from the Republic of China - offered sex acts to the detectives completely unprompted. One of the women arrested was said to have 'tried to have full sex' with the detective even after he denied her advances. The name given to the sting - 'Operation Skin So Soft' - was inspired by a compliment given to an undercover officer while they were auditing the massage parlors. 'One of the ladies said "Oh, your skin's so soft. You must work inside,"' Grady Judd, the Polk County Sheriff, said in a press conference. 'Well, sometimes we work in massage parlors.' The large-scale investigation came after Polk County Police conducted an examination of 22 different massage parlors in the Davenport, Dundee, Lakeland and Winter Haven areas to make sure they were in compliance with the law. It was discovered that 12 out of the 22 establishments audited were allegedly participating in illegal activity, including prostitution. It led to the arrests of the women - three of whom were US citizens while the others were here on work visas. 'I don't think the federal government had in mine this kind of work when they gave them a work visa, but they're here anyway,' Judd stated. One of the women, Jinxia Huang, 37, charged $60 for what was supposed to be a legitimate massage.

I don’t know about the rest of them but We Too Low is kinda cute!
Brave cops to arrest these women.
I bet there were plenty of volunteers in the force.
We have a large chain of places named “Massage” down here in SWFL. I wonder if they were involved? :^)
Any idea what Robert Kraft was doing going to a local parlor like these, when he could have hired elite escorts to come discretely to a mansion? Seems like he was probably not there for prostitution, especially given all of these will be put up with cameras to gather blackmail on everyone, both by the operators and by local domestic surveillance, and he would probably know that as a CEO, but what he was doing seems a mystery...
I was hoping someone would catch the reference and consider it at least a little bit funny.
That’s a Great question.
I know some millionaires that are so Insanely cheaop that they would risk their reputation and go out to spend 120 buckks (60 for massage and 60 for whatever) than pay a 500 dollar an hour upscale escort.
It’s like a disease.
I’m not saying that’s what happened here.
But I can’t see him owning a piece :)
I dont know! :)
And YES, if one goes, they will be caught on camera one day.
OR one can end up being there when police bust it and then their name is on the front page local news.
I know that has happened.
The “clients” dont get to just go home.
But as you said, as far as Kraft, if he wasn’t there for prostutition, then he must have some financial involvement in it.
That’s so hard to believe but I dont know why.
I should know by now that human nature is anything but predictable.
As for the “girls” that work there....they don’t dress sexy, they are almost never under 35 or 40...and not a hot looking 35 or 40.
The ones who bring them here and sell them...they get rid of those at a cheap price.
The young sexy ones are sent straight into prostitution with no pretense of a “massage”.
But it’s ALL human trafficking.
OK i’m done :)
