Woman sentenced in California brothel scheme
A West Covina woman who ran secret brothels out of spas, chiropractors’ offices and other businesses was sentenced Monday to 1 1/2 years in federal prison.
Jong Ock “June” Mao, 50, was also ordered in federal court to forfeit her interest in more than $10 million worth of property.
Mao, a native of Korea, pleaded guilty in August to conspiring to use interstate commerce to promote prostitution and using brothel proceeds to buy real estate.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Carmen Luege said Mao operated several businesses – five in Southern California and one in Dallas – that claimed to offer massage therapy, acupuncture, chiropractic services, and tanning but instead offered sexual services.
