That Them There House Is A Whore House!

Neighbors are shocked to discover that the place across the street with scantily clad Korean women is actually a brothel:

According to sources in the Queens’ Vice Detective Squad, the corner house located at 151-04 Bayside Ave. had been rented and used by a prostitution ring for the past month, where Korean women with little or no English proficiency were selling their bodies for sexual returns.

. . .

According to neighbors, the house had been a regular evening destination for male patrons, who could be seen parking their cars nearby and walking in through a side entrance. Scantily clad Korean women could also be found exiting cabs and walking into the home from the front entrance.

One neighbor, who asked not to be identified, didn’t believe that prostitution could exist just across the street from where he was tending his garden days before the arrests were made.

On June 7, the neighbor kept watch outside his window after a Tribune reporter asked him if he noticed any abnormal activity.

“When the ballgame is on, I don’t usually look out the window,” said the neighbor. “But this time I did and said, ‘(The Tribune) was right, that’s a whore house.'”

And we all know who the busybody is who ruined it for everyone else:

Days earlier, the Tribune received the tip from a neighbor who would only be identified as Dorothy.

“Once these people moved in, they started business immediately,” said Dorothy.

Sources said there were three “fully operational floors,” with rows of beds lined throughout the house. From front entrance photographs, what could be seen inside was a living room with a cloth draped couch, candles set on a coffee table and at least two surveillance cameras, with one aimed at the home’s front entrance. A separate table showed boxes of cigarettes and packages of KY Personal Lubricant. Two of the women arrested wore aprons with Korean lettering.

“It was set up like a spa,” said a police source.
From the outside, there were drape-covered windows, a fenced-in side yard surrounded by patio furniture and a second story deck. Grounds throughout the property appeared neatly manicured.

“If something like that snuck in, I’m surprised,” said Thomas Feeks, a 50-year nearby resident.

Moral Of The Story: When Relieving Oneself In Subway Tunnels, Piss Just Beyond The Station, Not Before It

Ew:

A man relieving himself beside the subway tracks in a tunnel at City Hall station had a turn of bad luck yesterday. As he swung around to return up the stairs in a section of the tunnel just south of the station, his hand was caught under a fast-moving no. 5 train, police and fire officials said.

Police arrested a Manhattan subway flasher after one of his grossed-out victims gave officers an Internet address that was emblazoned on the back of his jacket — and busted him when they found X-rated pictures of him on the site.

Police charged Kenneth Hoyt, 41, with public lewdness in connection with at least four incidents of flashing women on the subway.

Cops had been searching for Hoyt, who is listed as a Level III sex offender, after a 25-year-old Upper East Side victim went to the Web site and saw an X-rated picture of him.

The woman called cops, who found three other known victims. They identified him as the creep who also flashed them.

Police said Hoyt, who lives in Hell’s Kitchen, began his flashing spree March 18. He allegedly approached two teenage girls on a northbound N train between 14th and 23rd streets and exposed himself.

Hoyt struck again May 7, when a 25-year-old woman said he flashed her on an uptown R train between the City Hall and Cortlandt Street stops.

“He was sitting there with no pants on in a sarong that he flapped open,” said the woman, who did not want to be identified. “Then I saw his penis and moved away.”

She said he then flashed another woman before exiting the train. “He got off the train with no pants on,” she said.

Why does it seem like this always happens on the Broadway line?

Exciting New Renovations Coming!

Of course we all know what that means:

The Stage Deli has been served with two closing notices and a padlock on the side — the city Health Department has shut it down.

The historic Midtown deli, known for its dishes named after celebrities, was locked last night.

There were two Health Department closing notices on the door, dated yesterday and Tuesday, placed next to a handwritten sign saying the deli was “temporarily closed for renovations.”

Some Call It A Foot Fetish, Others Know It As Sexual Abuse And/Or Forcible Touching

There’s no such thing as friendly foot licking on the subway:

Joseph Weir, 23, was arraigned last Thursday before Queens Criminal Court Judge Suzanne Melendez on four separate complaints, each one charging Weir with one count of first degree sexual abuse, one count of forcible touching, one count of third degree sexual abuse and one count of second degree harassment. If convicted, he faces up to seven years in prison with respect to each complaint.

According to the complaints filed in the case, the first incident took place on the W train near 31st Street and Astoria Boulevard on the evening of May 27, 2004, when a 44 year old woman was allegedly approached by the defendant, who requested that she go out with him. When she declined his offer, the defendant allegedly knelt in front of her and, grabbing her left foot, licked it before fleeing the scene.

Five months later, Weir was riding a Queens bound R train when he allegedly lay on the floor in front of a sleeping 27 year old woman. When the victim stood to exit the train in the vicinity of Queens and Woodhaven Boulevards, she observed him lying on the floor and attempted to step over him. At this point, Weir allegedly grabbed her left foot and began kissing it. When the victim resisted by kicking the defendant, he stood up and forcibly grabbed her rear end before fleeing when another female passenger came to her aid.

I blame this guy.
