Utah police arrest women in undercover prostitution sting

Publish date: 2024-07-06
OGDEN, Utah - Ogden police Lt. Scott Conley says undercover officers contacted about a dozen women through online postings on sites such as Craigslist and arranged meetings at an apartment complex.

Police invited the escorts into rooms with surveillance, and shifted the conversation toward the price of sexual acts.

The six women arrested on prostitution charges range in age from 18 to 62. Two others were cited for not having a business license.

Police say thinly-veiled prostitution ads are showing up more frequently online. Conley says Ogden authorities want to send the message that they won't tolerate the activity.
