Brisbane duo charged with unlawful prostitution

[Brissie.Punter]

A Brisbane man and woman have been charged with unlawful prostitution after allegedly running an illegal syndicate out of motels.

A 65-year-old man and a 57-year-old woman were arrested in Brisbane on November 29 following a two-year operation into illegal prostitution activities in Mackay, Rockhampton, Toowoomba and Brisbane.

Police also seized $36,000.

Both were charged with four counts of carrying on the business of unlawful prostitution and will appear in the Brisbane Magistrates Court on December 18.

Twenty-five people have also been charged with unlawful prostitution offences.

The operation involved detectives from the Crime and Intelligence Command’s Prostitution Enforcement Taskforce, and Major and Organised Crime Squad Regional with assistance from AFP and the Australian Border Force.

Detective acting Inspector Brad Phelps said this was a significant outcome.

“Illegal operators not only put the health and safety of their workers and customers at risk, they are profiting from illegal activity and we will continue to hold them to account,” he said.

Trio charged with running a brothel out of a Sunshine Coast motel

Three women have been charged with running an illegal brothel out of a south-east Queensland motel.

The Chinese nationals, aged 52, 46 and 33, were allegedly involved in selling sex out of a Mooloolaba motel.

Police arrested the women at the motel "in the vicinity of Brisbane Road" and claim to have seized $10,000 in cash during their raid.

There are two legal forms of sex work in Queensland: that conducted in a licensed brothel, from which callouts are prohibited, and sole operators who work privately.

Escort agencies, unlicensed brothels, massage parlours, street workers and two or more sex workers operating from a single premises are considered illegal.

Queensland has 20 licensed and operating brothels: 12 in Brisbane, five on the Gold Coast, one on the Sunshine Coast, one in Toowoomba, and one in Cairns.

Two of the women – those aged 46 and 33 – were charged with participating in the provision of unlawful prostitution and possession of tainted property.

The 52-year-old was charged with carrying on the business of providing unlawful prostitution, having an interest in premises used for prostitution, and two counts each of knowingly participating in the provision of prostitution and possession of tainted property.

The three women were set to appear in Maroochydore Magistrates Court on Sunday afternoon.

They were probably advertising as 20 year old uni students, which is the biggest crime of all!

I was wondering why there had been no Toowong motel ads recently... for the past couple of weeks anyway.

that's something I noticed also. I hadn't linked it to this. And why would the adverts have stopped before the Maroochydore raids?

They aren’t hard to find spend 5 minutes on locanto
I was looking at one a few weeks ago apparently she was in perth( total lock down) cairns, rocky, McKay, bundy, and north lakes , mt Gravatt All at the same time
Even the massage shop on Zillmere Rd runs a add for a escort in Mackay at the same time
Dee Dee massage group ( you would be surprised how many) , nana new farm , high gate hill , love 2 massage in the valley , have been running out side escortS over the years

[4FoW2]

So they closed down 1 syndicate after a 2 year operation...draw your own conclusions.

[spaceman]

From what I gather they just have a small crew part time and use private investigators to gather the info basically it’s out sourced , sounds good in the press release 2 years
You and I know we can follow locanto and see different groups running girls

Went into natural therapy in Capalaba last week , The girl( 50 Chinese ) is openly at the Front counter Offers ( do want soft or hard massage or full service) then across the road at gental touch the owner husband/ partner is pimping out his wife ( on Gard if the cops come) this is the one connected to Ellie’s at annerly
(One of my Aussie customers Told me her girl friend worked there for one day ,picked up the wrong phone they where running escorts) that’s why she don’t work there
They have been running the shops as brothels )

and others keep telling you it has nothing to do with abn.

[spaceman]

Look it dose
Will all know there are shop owners on here
This will screw up the business model a bit , running pretend massage parlour ( that are brothels) with no abns ( I know the system how it works ) ALL IT DOSE iS PROTECT YOU AS THE OWNER , so you can’t get charged
But Everyone else go‘S under the bus
But everyone else can.
Wait until the students find out they can be deported for not paying tax Or charged for prostitution
The funny thing is , if she / he rent‘S a flat and do it by them self , they get it keep all the money .
and can give what ever level of service They want
and it’s totally fine under the law

But now
Every one can be arrested for just being in side the front door ( except the real owner)

[Brissypunter]

ah barbershop..I thought you were going to make reference to the dude recently charged with drug trafficking and explaining his million dollar income from being a barber.

[spaceman]

Yes it dose
It’s a registered business as a barbershop
Your there getting you hair cut and I am in the next chair getting my hair cut
If the girl gets caught in the storage room giving you a blow job for money and gets caught ( prostitution)
Only you and the girl get arrested
And I get my haircut ( with a good story to tell everyone)

But a barbershop with no Abn
And you get nab in the storage room getting a blow Job for money
It’s a unlicensed brothel
And I get charged for just sitting there
( it’s a unlicensed brothel pretending to be a barbershop )

Say this is my business
And I am running it as a unlicensed brothel
Pretending to be a barbershop
I have trust + a ptyLtd that rents the shop as in my wife’s name
The link is broken because there is no personal owner ( no abn)
Police contact my wife
Yes one of my company’s rents that property we use it for storage

You shop owners have been caught with your pants down

And yes other shop owner have identified you as a shop owner

[Brissypunter]

U been in space to long I think lol

[bjsearcher]

FFS Spaceman it's "does" not "dose".

ABN's are a taxation/business related matter which is not enforced by the State Police.

All the police need to do is do a Registered Business Name search, regardless of whether the business has an ABN or not.

They operate off complaints from the public and they check advertisements in the local papers, Gumtree etc.

Yes they do enforce business abns just depends on who’s doing the raid
In April sukhonnee mekchai ( dee Dee massage parlours where raided on the 4/6 April this year .
3 out lets where required to remove all unregistered trading names
121 Mortimer Rd
Dee Dee 105 Wellington st
And 143 Bryant’s rd Loganholme
Drive past 105 Wellington st there is not one word on the front of the house
Was forced to remove
She just leaves the door open and runs 3 to 4 escorts at a time
Her staff said she can’t understand why she got raided as she is protected

If was not for colvid she would not be notice

She has some one on the inside that warns her when there looking at her
And that’s often

In The last raid the staff told me she had a phone call just a few minutes before the raid , took off in car ( didn’t worn the staff there all pissed off )

[popeye96]

I'm not even going to bother stating why having to remove signs has nothing to do with having or not having an ABN. Instead I'm just going to bang my head against a wall. Less painful.

removing the signs means less complaints from neighbours.

Funny how people hate it when someone knows more than they do...reading all the posts Spaceman obviously knows what he is talking about ..he never waivers.....listen !!!!

[Brissypunter]

Yeah he knows shit !!! First says Wellington road closed up then says still open .. it still open 7days a week !! Abn no abn who fuck cares

[spaceman]

Yes you can skirt the laws only for some time
Until you get your head copped off

Unfortunately your not aware of what’s going

Even most of the guys on here have noticed it’s odd

Post like is there a cartel ( yes there is)

Post like “ how can there advertise like that it’s illegal

I don’t post them

Brissypunter just seems to your normal punter “ I don’t care as long as I get the week special “
We all want that one
But some of us on here ( don’t want it if she has been trafficked , if she being forced to do what she shouldn’t,
They have turned her into a moden day slave)
We have children , what if they get hold of yours

[Tlito]

I went to laver street Robina a year ago and a lady took me to a house where there was kids and other ladies...into a room you know the rest...recently I thought why not give the other shops in Robina another go...booked at one got a message to say go to the other shop...same lady who took me to the house a year earlier is running all 3 shops...exactly as spaceman said....then the first thing the girl asks me when she nudes up is do I like sex....she said the boss was nice and let her have time off and she lived there...

State Police do not enforce Federal Regulation.

OK spaceman. you have kids as you say and you know all the details of these offences. it's up to you to actually do something about it instead of posting here. if you've got the evidence then call the police and report it. if it is a crime being committed then they will resolve it.

Al Capone was taken down for tax evasion...not the multitude of other sins.

Think about it if you don’t get the point.
