Column: Prostitution business had customers at casino hotel

Monday, December 10, 2012  

"If you doubt how much prostitution business casino customers generate, consider a police report from a raid on an alleged brothel in Norwich back in the spring of 2011.

Nine Norwich police officers and one agent from Homeland Security participated in the raid on the three-bedroom house on Asylum Street.

While police were there, cellphones scattered around the house kept ringing, and the officers answered the calls.

"Cellular phones were constantly ringing," says a report on the May raid. "Several people were calling for 'Momma' and looking to have girls come to their room at the casino.

"There were also several phone calls from men asking for the price and arranging to come to the residence to meet with a girl. (The) phones were also receiving text messages from customers looking for females and advising what room they were in at the casino."

Recession? What recession?"
