Originally, I intended to write about the the Yoga enthusiast who was arrested at a Virginia national park for masturbating in public and throwing dead animals at oncoming cars. Then I changed my mind and thought about that story from yesterday about a New Jersey man who rented out a house that he didn't even own and made out with $6000. But then, I saw this story and it trumped both of the stories that I intended to write about. No, this isn't a photo of my mom and aunt, though, they can definitely pass for relatives.
Anyway, I love this story; two out-of-state teens were recently caught up in a bizarre undercover sex sting at a Florida massage parlor. The allegedly innocent 16-year-old pals were dropped off by their parents at the Jasmine Massage Parlor in Osceola, Florida, for a sports rubdown to relax strains sustained during a full day of surfing. Um, shouldn't that have been red flag number one? Jasmine Massage Parlor filled with Asian women? "Want Happy Ending?" Hello? The boys ended up being "slap bang" in the middle of a prostitution bust.
The drama reportedly went down shortly before 11 p.m. last Wednesday, when the two boys arrived at the West U.S. Highway 192 venue at the same time as vice squad members. According to one of the plain-clothed detectives, who was waiting in the lobby, he saw one of the boys sprint out of the building. He was closely followed by his friend and then an angry masseuse, who was later identified as 51-year-old Lijun Shi. It turns out; the nervous teens allegedly forked cash over to Shi as "she" screamed at them before a third client emerged from another room yelling: "That was the worst sex act ever." Claiming he'd suffered an injury, the unhappy customer advised the undercover agents to "go somewhere else!" According to the police report, this event took place as Shi and the partially clothed owner, 54-year-old Zhu Fang Liu, also stood in the lobby yelling, probably in Chinese which to me just sounds like a bunch of high-pitched barking dogs. Growing up in a Chinese family, whenever Chinese women spoke, they were always loud and annoying for no apparent reason.
So, the teens had been detained outside the massage parlor with one saying that his "therapist" had asked him if he was at school before grabbing his goods. Claiming he was terrified, he said that he thought he was going to receive a genuine massage and was shocked to find out what was really on offer. Yeah, right! Did the police realize that the parents dropped them off near 11 p.m.? What parents are going to take their kids to a legit massage parlor at 11 p.m.? Actually, what legit massage parlor is open at 11 p.m.? I think these kids knew where they were going. It just happened to be their first time and of course, they were scared; there were police all over the place. I would be scared too! Also, their parents have to be really dumb and naive to even think that dropping their kids off at a massage parlor at 11 p.m. was a good idea.
Liu allegedly offered a cop sexual services for a tip and she was arrested alongside Shi, who was arrested and charged with living off the earnings of prostitution, assignation to commit prostitution and disorderly conduct. Liu was charged with living off the earnings of prostitution and two counts of keeping a house of ill repute. The two teens were released to their parents. According to the sheriff's department, the boys claimed that the day before they had done some sort of surfing exercise that injured their backs and they went to get a legitimate massage and didn't realize that the establishment offered additional services. I'm calling bullshit on this one. I was 16-yeas-old once too many, many years ago, and these were the types of places I always looked for. These boys knew where they were going, they knew how to dupe their parents into taking them, and now they are using their youthful, naive innocence to help them get out of trouble. That's what I see when I go through this story. I just can't believe that the Florida police are too dumb to see through this. Then again, it is Florida.
