Im well aware of all the things that threaten my well being. Punting is my vice. Please don't offer alcohol or drugs or gambling to me as well as I punt. One habit is more than enough. ThanksQuote:

That would be the 49 year oldQuote:

Such a shame, this shop got so much potential and zero competition in the area, they got the whole upper north shore to themselves. Many people even travel from Central Coast and New Castle to visit this shop. If only the shop was taken over buy a better owner and management.
Interesting post from someone on parlour pages...
I just sent a report to the police about drug dealing at 142. Just like last time it will hopefully cost Mina thousands.
This was posted in June last year.
Seems the current investigation started around March this year.
I seem to recall one of the receptionist saying someone , one customer who was not happy, was threatening to go to the police. That would have been around about 6 months ago from memory.
That is one pretty stupid punter!! I don't care how bad the service was, I don't think I would be saying that to the receptionist!Quote:

Last thing this industry needs is publicity like this. Bound to be a few journos planning sensationalist, lack of facts stories about drug dealings through brothels and massage joints.
Just going to make it harder for other shops that are quietly going about their business in a professional way. Last thing they need is the media, police and politicians to start scrutinising them.
Even if they are totally legitimate, some punters are going to get nervous and maybe stay away for a while.
Amen to that Bro:surprise:...........Quote:

Exactly what I said. A brothel with a permissive stance on drugs will eventually get in trouble. Instead brothels and massage parlours need to draw a line with allowing drugs on the premises. Particularly this idea that ML/WL take drugs on site and share with customers.Quote:

Pretty much you have this one warning. If another brothel is overrun with drugs and organised crime, the whole industry will be shaken to the ground
Journalists read this forum and nothing sells newspapers like sex and drug scandals
I have obviously lived a very sheltered punting life.
The heaviest thing I have ever been offered is a cigarette - and I don't even smoke.
Did post something but it appears the press are reading sites like this..Quote:

Her employee Jun Jia, 28, was also arrested and charged with four counts of supplying ice, supplying a commercial quantity of ice, participating in a criminal group, possessing a prohibited drug and being found on drug premises.
The two were refused bail and appeared briefly at Parramatta Bail Court on Saturday.
Lets hope the owner didn't force the girls to sell drugs, but she sounds like a greedy person so i bet she did
Biggest surprise of this whole scandal is that one of the WL was actually in her 20’s
You are forgetting that there are more employees than the actual WLs e.g. reception. I suspect this is one of the receptionist but I may be wrong.Quote:

Well. They were meant to reopen today after doing their ‘maintenance’. But today they say they are still closed as they have ‘more maintenance’ to do.
Given the press around this. Radio coverage, articles in at least the SMH and Telegraph, who do they think they are kidding.
Today is the day the four arrested are in Hornsby court. I wonder if any press will be there to cover what seems a fairly major case.
I wonder how much a 'commercial quantity really is. Normally when the cops make a big bust, they put an inflated dollar value or street value on the 'haul'. I haven't heard any numbers so far. Doesn't sound like an overly large amount of drugs were found, just enough to be considered that there was more than a personal amount. Cops would be much more interested on where the girls are getting it from, it's not as if there is a meth lab in room 8 @ 142!!Quote:

Now I don’t have any idea of the threshold the police use but I am assuming to be refused bail and again I am assuming it is a first offence for both, that there must have been quite a bit.Quote:

Given it was a 6 month investigation, I also think the police may already have surveillance of any dealers who may have delivered anything to the premises. Although with the nature of the business with people in and out all the time, might be difficult to work out who is a punter versus a dealer but given 6 months I guess they could work it out.
I am also wondering what the police ordered in terms of the actual business itself. Are they or council able to order the place closed and if so for what period. Including Friday and today, they have been closed for 6 days. Will they ever re open? Maybe with new owners?
The tentacles of drugs and organised crime are long. The massage shop is probably not the source of the drugs, just the commercial outlet.
We recently had the media beating up the private investigator in massage parlour issue. The drugs issue is a magnitude way higher on the Richter scale, and public awareness is now magnified
We dont need this high profile. Isnt that obvious? Want to start up a new massage parlour? Its going to get harder now.
And the reputation of the entire industry will gradually be shredded
Its a message to all brothels and massage shops, if you let the drug problem inside your premises, the drug octopus will take you and your business away from you. And you will be in jail. The drug syndicates will just move onto the next unsuspecting group of businesses, ML/WL
And punters, if you are offered drugs in a brothel, what you then do is your business, but please tell the boss on the way out, "You guys have drugs on the premises. This wont end well"
Articles in the Telegraph today, the 45 yr old mamasan owns 4 brothels !! While the police raided the shop, simultaneously they also raided her home !
That's a $2.5M mansion just 5 min away from the Hornsby shop. I guess the mansion was paid for by the drug money rather than profits from running those FS brothels ! What do you guys think ??
House is 27 Highlands Avenue Wahroonga. Which other brothels does she own? https://www.realestate.com.au/sold/p...onga-124823974Quote:
