Atlanta News First - Several people have been arrested in connection to an extensive human trafficking and prostitution network spanning several metro Atlanta massage parlors, the Roswell Police Department said. And I say it is often hidden behind closed doors. Additional arrests are also expected. In May , the Roswell City Council passed an amended ordinance to strengthen regulations in massage parlors and spas. The operation culminated on Wednesday when more than 70 officers searched 10 locations believed to support human trafficking in Roswell, Johns Creek, Sandy Springs, and Atlanta.
The ring reportedly included the following spas:. Investigators said the spas involved are temporarily closed, although Atlanta News First found the Barefoot Massage parlor on Roswell Road in Sandy Springs still operating. No one inside would comment.
