Local Wellness Spa Owner Faces Federal Charges for Alleged Prostitution Business in Western New York

Linian Song, owner of a local wellness spa in Rochester, is facing federal charges for allegedly operating a prostitution business across Western New York. Customers who were stopped by investigators claimed they paid for massages but received sexual acts performed by spa employees. Investigators also allege that Song used Backpage-type websites to advertise the services.

Song was arrested during an FBI raid at the Lockport spa and is now facing charges of knowingly using a facility in interstate commerce with the intent to manage a prostitution business. The criminal complaint was filed in Buffalo federal court on Monday. Accusations against Song include using the spas for illegal activities and promoting the services through online platforms.

The investigation into Song and his businesses has led to his arrest and federal charges regarding operating a prostitution business using the wellness spas in Rochester and Lockport. Allegations include the use of Backpage-type websites to advertise services and provide commercial sex acts to customers. The federal charges have been filed in Buffalo federal court, and the case is ongoing.
