A newlywed Man was arrested after he responded to an advertisement for a prostitute in Florida and met with an undercover detective instead.
Paul Turovsky,34, was on his honeymoon with his wife after their wedding on July 15. Authorities said that while his wife was sleeping, Turovsky searched online for a prostitute.
According to the Daily Mail, he was unaware that the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office was conducting a sting operation to track down human trafficking, prostitution, and sexual assault on minors.
After arriving at the Hyatt Hotel in Tampa, an undercover detective arrested him.
Investigators didn’t disclose when he was arrested, but Hillsborough Sheriff Chad Chronister said in a statement: ‘The only question here was, as a wedding guest, was it too late to get the gifts that they gave returned to them?’
“We all probably have questions about how long this marriage lasted, but I think the only question here, with it ending so quickly, as a wedding guest, was it too late to get the gifts that they gave returned back to them?” Chronister joked.
As funny as a guy getting busted for soliciting a prostitute on his honeymoon is, it wasn’t all fun and games. It sounds like there were also some really bad people locked up.
Chronister provided details on the arrests of two other suspects. They’re accused of traveling from Massachusetts to Tampa with two missing teenagers.
Additionally, detectives found two missing teens, aged 16 and 17, who traveled from Massachusetts to Tampa with two of the suspects. One of the teens was found at a hotel, while the other was found sleeping in a vehicle when one of the suspects went to a grocery store.
‘We believe these two individuals, these two men are responsible for trafficking many more women. I’m not able to say more without jeopardizing the investigation.’
The minors were taken into protective custody and will be reunited with their families.
