Manhattan Escorts: Jersey City Heights man admits laundering millions of dollars made providing …
The World Class Party Girls website is gone, but when Ruis was busted last July it had images of 40 scantily clad women and listed rates of $500 to $3,500 per hour. It was based on Sherman Avenue off Bowers Street and several call center workers and supervisors were charged, as were some high-fee hookers, Rastogi said.
Rastogi said no johns were charged and those contacted were cooperative and were prepared to testify at trial. Some had tabs as high as $100,000.
A tip to Hoboken police kicked off the one-year probe by county investigators that dismantled the escort service. Police used an undercover officer posing as a potential john and then traced the credit card bill to reveal the structure of the escort service and the players, Rastogi said.
