Bothell Advocates Condemn Massage Parlor Raids Amid Prostitution Probe

Advocates in Bothell challenge five massage parlor shutdowns tied to a police investigation of potential prostitution and trafficking, arguing the actions unfairly target Asian-owned businesses and overlook workers’ rights.

Critics call for an end to raids and an inquiry into alleged harassment of workers.
