"Arrests Made in Bust of High-End Prostitution Network Involving Politicians and Elite Professionals"

Three individuals have been arrested and charged in connection with operating high-end brothels in the Boston area and Northern Virginia, with clients allegedly including politicians and military officers. The charges stem from a multiyear investigation that began in 2020. The defendants are accused of leasing apartments, coordinating travel for sex workers, and using websites as a front for prostitution. The investigation has identified customers from various professional backgrounds, and there may be potentially hundreds of yet-to-be-identified clients. The defendants face charges of conspiracy to coerce and entice individuals to engage in illegal sexual activity, with a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison.
