Detectives arrested a 12th person Thursday in connection with a major operation led by CCSO cracking down on illicit massage businesses in Collier County.

Xu Huiping, 55, was hurrying out the back door with suitcases in tow when detectives arrived at of Asian Angels Spa, 1042 Pine Ridge Road, Naples around 1 p.m. to conduct an inspection.

Huiping, the designated establishment operator, was arrested after she was unable to provide detectives with documents required by state law.

Huiping wasn’t present Tuesday when Asian Angels failed an inspection and the assistant operator was arrested during a multi-agency operation that focused on identifying illicit conduct at area massage businesses and the people who operate these criminal enterprises. Eleven people were arrested and 10 businesses failed inspections.

The operation represents the beginning of enforcement of a new Florida law which aims to crack down on illicit massage businesses, hold them accountable for their criminal activities, and combat human trafficking. The Collier County Sheriff’s Office led by Sheriff Kevin Rambosk was instrumental in writing the law and getting it passed.

House Bill 197, which took effect July 1, represents CCSO’s commitment to identifying victims of human trafficking, as well as ridding our community of these types of criminal enterprises.

On Thursday, two days after the operation, it was business as usual at Asian Angels. Two male customers showed up while detectives were conducting the inspection and the massage therapist on duty told detectives she had just started working at the business, having flown in from California on Wednesday.

Huiping was unable to provide detectives with the employee log, nor was she able to provide her identification or a copy of the new therapist’s ID as required under the new law. She was taken into custody.
