Police say undercover officers arrested seven more suspects while investigating illicit massage businesses in Chesterfield County last week. The employees were working at five different storefronts and are each facing nearly two dozen charges. They are accused of operating their establishments without proper licenses and soliciting sex work. At least nine other people are facing charges after similar stings were conducted throughout the county over the past four months. A majority of the women arrested are from Flushing, New York... which investigators believe is not a coincidence.
