Prostitution Arrest Made At Plainfield Road Business

CREST HILL, IL — For the second time this year, the Crest Hill Police Department has made an arrest at the Rose Massage parlor at 2400 Caton Farm Road. The latest criminal investigation resulted in the arrest and prosecution of employee Xiaofei Wang.

According to Will County State's Attorney Jim Glasgow's staff, Wang "knowingly performed an act of touching or fondling the sex organs of one person by another person, for anything of value, to wit: United States currency, for the purpose of sexual arousal or gratification."

The criminal complaint indicates Wang engaged in prostitution on Aug. 27.

Crest Hill Police Chief Ed Clark told Joliet Patch that an undercover prostitution investigation was launched after his police department had received numerous complaints from people saying that the business was soliciting sexual acts from its customers.

The website for Rose Massage states: "Treat yourself to a refreshing and rejuvenating experience by indulging in one of our specialized services, many of which cannot be found at your average massage spa in Crest Hill, IL."

Clark said his department arrested a different employee at Rose Massage back in March, but he was not sure whether the case was prosecuted in Will County's courts.

In recent weeks, Crest Hill police worked with area police officials to conduct "an undercover operation which we were able to substantiate the charge" against Wang, Clark said.

According to court files, one of the Will County judges has ordered that a Mandarin interpreter appear at the next court hearing for Wang, which is set for 10 a.m. in Courtroom 305 on Oct. 21.
