Prostitution Arrests Shut Down Massage Business
Two employees at Rong Hua D-Stress in Des Peres were charged with prostitution Monday; the city has pulled the business license.
A massage business in Des Peres had its license revoked after an investigation discovered prostitution at the establishment. Two of the business’ employees were charged Monday with miscellaneous sex violations.
Rong Hua D-Stress, a massage business formerly at 11730 Manchester Road, closed after a St. Louis County Special Investigations Unit determined prostitution occurred at the establishment.
One of the business owners, Jing Yong, provided $500 in bail for each of the women. Yong told police he had the women sign documents that stated they would not perform acts of prostitution while working for him. The documents were printed in Chinese and had not been interpreted when the probable cause statement was filed with prosecutors.
