Cook County Cops Collar Prostitute in Sting at Orland Park Hotel: Police

A 20-year-old prostitute was arrested during a sting at an Orland Park hotel, police said.

Taylor Francque was taken into custody at the Homewood Suites on LaGrange Road.

The Cook County Sheriff’s Office, along with Orland Park and Tinley Park police, conducted the prostitution sting.

Francque was driven to the Homewood Suites in a white Infiniti with tinted windows, police said. After she went inside the hotel, officers approached the car and ordered the driver to get out.

The driver, 32-year-old Roderick Ephraim, turned out to have a revoked license, police said. He lost his license for driving under the influence, said police, who eventually “learned that Ephraim had an extensive criminal history” including such crimes as possessing “dangerous drugs, burglary, traffic offenses, and obstructing police.”

The cops had the Infiniti, which reportedly belonged to Francque, towed and impounded.

Ephraim “denied knowing that Francque was coming out to the Homewood Suites for prostitution purposes,” police said, but when Francque was arrested she told a deputy “her boyfriend drove her to the hotel and that he was in the parking lot in her vehicle.”
