(Dmytro “Henry” Aleksandrov, Headline USA) One of the avenues in New York City has become completely “infected” with illegal brothels selling the bodies of hookers in broad daylight, frustrating residents who claim that prostitutes loiter outside and have sex with minors.
It is now possible to see nearly a dozen brothels operating on one street in the Corona neighborhood of Queens, with prostitutes seducing clients on Roosevelt Avenue near Junction Boulevard, the New York Post reported, adding that the brothels also work in broad daylight on weekends.
The residents also noted that drunk men consistently prowl the area, looking to have sex with prostitutes.
Moms in the neighborhood started opposing the local prostitution when hookers started recruiting local children to hand out their X-rated business cards. To combat the sex trade’s targeting of their children in Corona, a group of about 20 moms has formed the Community of Young Values and Principles.
“The police do nothing — nothing!” one woman who works at a cell phone store on the avenue said. “Drugs, prostitution, alcohol — it’s terrible.”
Another local woman and a mother of six also expressed her concerns about children being groomed by whores.
“I have younger kids. One is 14, one is 8, and one is 5. And these girls, they try to pull them in and sell them their services. Even the kids! They’re really forceful about it,” she said.
Some of these brothels went as far as to advertise their services on YouTube in Spanish with videos showing the women talking to men on the sidewalk of Roosevelt Avenue, naming the price of their bodies.
Even though the community faces this problem, the NYPD announced that it stopped arresting prostitutes in recent years, instead cracking down on those who have sex with hookers.
