Friday article about the busted prostitution ring

[rainbow4321]

Looks like this started off as a blurb on "Crime and Courts" section of news websites.


Of course, this all brings up: who else is on the list of "wealthy men"??

Four people were arrested Thursday and accused of organizing a prostitution ring that charged wealthy clients in Europe and the U.S. thousands of dollars for prostitutes rated by diamonds.

A three-diamond prostitute would cost $1,000 per hour, while the Icon Club allowed access to the most highly ranked prostitutes at $5,500 an hour, prosecutors said.

Authorities said the defendants arranged connections between wealthy men and more than 50 prostitutes in New York, Washington, D.C., Los Angeles, Miami, London and Paris.

In a criminal complaint, FBI agent Kenneth Hosey said clients were told a wire transfer to the Emperors Club would be identified as QAT Consulting to appear to be a business transaction. Hosey said the defendants earned more than $1 million illegally through the business.
