MAYS LANDING, NJ — An Atlantic County massage business that publicly advertises massages with a "happy ending" has been busted for prostitution for the second time, Township of Hamilton police said.
Waterfall Therapy was searched on Oct. 8, following an initial search this past March, which resulted in charges being filed against two people, police said. The investigation is part of an ongoing effort to address illegal prostitution-related activity in Hamilton, according to police.
"Despite the previous enforcement action, and our attempts to work with county and state agencies during the investigations, the property has once again become the subject of a criminal inquiry involving alleged prostitution-related activity," police said.
As a result of Thursday's investigation, 54-year-old Jianhong Li of Flushing, NY was charged with promoting prostitution. Police also seized about $10,000 in U.S. currency, police said.
A small note on the business's website notes that it offers massages with a "happy ending."
After the March 11 search, two people, Cuie Chen, 50, and Wen-Juin Zhou, 60, were charged with prostitution and conspiracy to commit prostitution. Both were released on summons.
