Pasadena investigators worked with an area motel to conduct the sting. Undercover officers arranged meetings at the motel; when the women arrived at the motel, often with male companions, they were arrested. Many of the male companions were also arrested.
The result of the sting was a total of four felonies and eight misdemeanors, with a total of 12 people being arrested. Pasadena Police say that they also recovered marijuana and meth in the sting as well as a gun.
