A woman has been found guilty of running a sex racket in America. This woman used to do this while living in Greater Boston. Through this sex racket, women were supplied to influential people. Customers included politicians, army officers, lawyers and corporate executives. This 42-year-old woman named Han Lee arrived for hearing in Boston Federal Court. Prosecutors said the predominantly Asian women traveled to Massachusetts and Virginia to engage in prostitution and money laundering.
The woman, a Massachusetts resident, was arrested in November last year along with Junmyung Lee, 31, and James Lee, 69. He was later indicted by a federal grand jury in February for operating a prostitution racket. Han Li faces up to 25 years in prison when he is sentenced in December. He told the judge that he did not force any women to engage in sex work while running an illegal prostitution business.
Han Li operated several brothels in Cambridge and Watertown, Massachusetts, and Fairfax and Tysons, Virginia, since July 2020, according to prosecutors. Prosecutors said he created the basic infrastructure for these brothels in several states. Its purpose was to persuade, inspire and seduce women. For this, Asian women were especially targeted.
Han Li used to charge her customers between 350 to 600 dollars for sex services. Payment was taken entirely in cash. These people promoted their work on two websites. Apart from this, calls were made through local numbers and only verified customers were called. They were informed about the menu and available places through test messages.
