SILVER SPRING, MD – Police in Silver Spring have arrested two women for sex trafficking at an unlicensed spa and massage parlor and believe there are more victims.
Montgomery County Detectives from the Vice and Intelligence Unit arrested and charged two women with multiple counts of sex trafficking and prostitution.
Two women, 48-year-old Ana Delia Solano of Silver Spring and 49-year-old Ana Cristina Bermudez of Riverdale, are accused of running an unlicensed spa in the 9500 block of Georgia Avenue, advertising massage services online with sexually explicit photos.
