Amaheim, Calif. • Four women were arrested and charged with running a prostitution network in California, Nevada and Utah that generated tens of thousands of dollars a month, authorities said Wednesday.
The women had a website that appeared to be a legitimate service but wasn't and had office space in two California cities they used as call centers, Orange County District Attorney Todd Spitzer said.
"In this case we have women exploiting women for gain," Spitzer told reporters. "These are not victimless crimes."
Authorities said the four women are charged with pimping and pandering and the two alleged ringleaders, Jodi Leigh Hoskins, 43, and Torri Ti Wilkinson, 37, are also charged with conspiracy.
