Cedar Rapids Police and the DCI disclosed an 18 month operation centering a Des Moines storefront IMAC that processed credit card payments for 33 sex-for-sale businesses across Iowa and six other states. Nine Iowa clients submitted $55,000 in 2,875 transactions with average bills around 175 dollars. Meyer stated arrests and asset seizures may follow and that some front names hid the real operators.
