28 Alleged Clients, Attorneys, and Politicians Face Charges in Multi-State Brothel Investigation

The U.S. Attorney's Office in Massachusetts is seeking charges against 28 alleged clients of a "high-end brothel network" that was recently busted in the state. The investigation, which is ongoing, aims to hold accountable the buyers who fuel the commercial sex industry. The alleged clients include politicians, professors, military officers, and pharmaceutical executives. The defendants, including the accused ring leader Han Lee, have been charged with violating federal sex trafficking laws for running a secret and exclusive brothel that operated as a club, offering menus of women and services at luxury apartments in Massachusetts and Virginia. The investigation has uncovered evidence such as money orders, condoms, and appointment books, indicating the scale of the operation.
