US Woman Pleads Guilty to Running Elite Brothel Network

Han Lee admits to operating a high-end prostitution ring serving politicians, military officers, and executives.

Han Lee, 42, pleaded guilty in Boston federal court to charges of operating an interstate prostitution network and money laundering.
Lee's operation spanned Massachusetts and Virginia, using luxury apartments as brothels and advertising through websites posing as professional nude modeling platforms.
Clients, including high-profile politicians, corporate executives, and military officers, paid between $350 and $600 per hour for services.
Lee and her co-defendants coordinated travel and accommodation for the women, primarily of Asian descent, and enforced strict rules to maintain secrecy.
The network's proceeds were laundered through personal and third-party bank accounts, with cash converted into money orders to conceal the source of funds.
