Woman accused of running high-end brothels in Cambridge and Watertown, gets 4 years in prison
Briefly

Han Lee, along with two accomplices, was sentenced to prison for running a high-end prostitution ring in Massachusetts and Washington, D.C. The operation involved hundreds of clients and generated significant revenue, with prosecutors estimating approximately 10,000 sex dates occurred. U.S. District Judge Julia Kobick emphasized the exploitation involved and the serious nature of the crimes committed, including money laundering and conspiracy. Lee's operation not only profited immensely but also violated the law in a substantial manner, leading to her four-year sentence.
"You ran a highly profitable business that involved recruiting women across the country to come to Massachusetts and Virginia to sell their bodies for sex," said U.S. District Judge Julia Kobick.
Prosecutors estimated that nearly 10,000 commercial sex dates occurred in her brothels, making it one of the most successful prostitution networks on the East Coast.
