The Colorado State Patrol and Homeland Security Investigations assisted with the investigation.
Court papers obtained by 11 News reveal that police believe women were actually living in one local massage parlor. The papers say that the owner admitted to allowing, and even promoting, prostitution in the parlor, while she collected half of all of the money made by the women working there.
Misook Sledge, and Sang White were arrested for prostitution. Arworn Hamilton was arrested for Human Trafficking, Pimping, Pandering, and Providing a Place for Prostitution.
Hamilton and Sledge were arrested at Sakura Therapy on B Street, White was arrested at World Massage near Hancock Expressway and Bradley Road.
Hamilton admitted that the women working in her parlor were prostitutes. She said that she just bought the business back in June, and before that she worked as a prostitute there. She says that the women are free to come and go as they please from the parlor. Police say that Hamilton also told them that she collects half of everything that the women make, whether it’s for legitimate massages or sexual favors.
White never actually admitted to prostitution, but when an undercover officer came in to get a massage, at one point she actually touched the officer inappropriately, and after the officer asked what else they do (besides massages), she asked if he was a cop.
