Seven more women have been arrested at massage parlors across Miami-Dade, following a wave of arrests in an undercover prostitution sting operation run by the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office.  All seven women appeared in bond court facing prostitution charges as well as running a massage business without a license. The arrests come a day after seven other women were arrested at massage parlors in southwest Miami-Dade. Those locations were closed after the first round of arrests.  According to arrest reports, the women would offer sexual acts to an undercover detective after a massage. They would also charge, according to the reports, prices ranging from $50 to $150.  The women’s ages ranged from 46 to 67 years old: 

  • Yaoying Lin, 58 
  • Xiufen Lin, 51 
  • Yan Xi, 48
  • Zixuan Wang, 46 
  • Mei Hui Lin, 49
  • Quirong Xu, 67 
  • Hongli Ren, 63

Judge Mindy Glazer presided over the bond court appearances. During the proceedings, she referenced charges of “committing a lascivious act and engaging in prostitution,” according to CBS News Miami’s reporting from the courthouse. Yaoying Lin’s attorney, Paul Petruzzi, persuaded the judge to reduce her charge from a felony to a misdemeanor. “She’s resided in Miami for many years. Married. And has never failed to appear,” Petruzzi said. “They had my client held overnight. She was charged with a felony unfairly. To the point where a judge on her own dismissed it. It’s either real bad, bad, bad police work. Or it’s something else. A little bit more nefarious. I’m afraid the latter,” Petruzzi said. The Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office said that they will not be providing any interviews regarding this undercover sting at this time.
