In January 2024, the Frederick Police Department received anonymous tips regarding alleged illegal prostitution activities occurring at several massage parlors in Frederick City, Maryland.

Detective Sharpe of the Frederick Police Department collaborated with the Frederick County State’s Attorney’s Office on this investigation, securing multiple search and seizure warrants.

On March 4th, 2024, members of the Frederick Police Department, Frederick County Sheriff’s Office, and Homeland Security Investigations successfully executed these warrants at the following locations:
