Massage Parlor Busted as Prostitution Front

By Rupert Deedes

Suffolk County Police have taken-down yet another criminal Huntington prostitution ring masquerading as a legitimate medicinal massage service.

Acting after several complaints from the community, Suffolk Police arrested two women for operating a house of prostitution out of an unlicensed massage parlor in Huntington, and shut-down their establishment..

Arrested are Daoxia Xie, age 48, of Flushing and Qingling Chai, age 43, of Fresh Meadows. Both were charged with Prostitution and Unauthorized Practice of a Profession. Both were given Field Appearance Tickets and released without bail, under New York’s liberal “no bail” laws. The two – if they do not flee the country or change their identities - will be arraigned at First District Court in Central Islip on a later date.

The raid was investigated and coordinated by and between the Suffolk County Police Second Precinct Crime Section officers, Second Squad detectives, and the Town of Huntington Public Safety department.

The establishment was called the Island Breeze Foot Spa, located at 1842 East Jericho Turnpike. The Town of Huntington Public Safety shut down the business after issuing the two women several citations for building violations.
