The curtain has come down again on Bella Touch Massage in Eastpointe, Michigan, after local police conducted a raid uncovering illicit sex services being offered to clients. The establishment, which fronted as a massage parlor, was first flagged by Eastpointe residents who reported being propositioned for sexual acts in exchange for additional payment after receiving massages, as reported by Macomb Daily.

According to police, Eastpointe's Special Investigative Unit and Detective Bureau went undercover on March 26, confirming the complaints. "A detective went to the establishment for a massage and after its completion, a therapist allegedly offered to perform sexual acts on the detective," Lt. Alexander Holish informed clickondetroit. This isn't a first for Bella Touch Massage, with police having shut down the establishment three years ago under similar allegations.

Following the sting operation, law enforcement officials executed a search warrant and are now pursuing the revocation of the parlor's business license. "The city’s building department is aware of the situation and is working on revoking Bella Touch’s business license," confirmed a statement obtained by CBS Detroit. Details surrounding the ownership and employee involved were sketchy, with the owner absent and the employee's immigration status unclear during the raid.

Legal ramifications are pending as the Macomb County Prosecutor's Office is currently reviewing evidence to detemine, precise charges against the parlor's owner and staff. The parlor has been tied to Shunhua Wu as president and director, and James C Pedersen as secretary, with a corporate registered address in Farmington Hills, as per public records cited by Macomb Daily. In the wake of the shutdown, Eastpointe authorities remain vigilant in their pursuit to cleanse the community of criminal activity masquerading as legitimate businesses.
