Pins and needles and lewd acts?

| | Comments (0) |

You can say bye bye to CP Acupuncture Health Center in Covina. Amanda Baumfeld reports the City Council revoked the clinic's business license Tuesday after police found out its owner was running "an adult service operation" there.

The center opened on Dec. 1 as an acupuncture practice, but officials to Baumfeld the business housed massage tables, large bottles of hand lotion and oils. Doesn't sound very acupuncture-ish to me. Here's more from Baumfeld's story:

Police began investigating the center at 1259 San Bernardino Road in February after receiving complaints of late night male clientele from residents who live across the street, according to Lt. Tim Doonan.

(...)

The investigation resulted in the arrest of Shui Mai Liu, 52, of Monterey Park on Feb. 13 who was booked on suspicion of soliciting a lewd act.

Liu has since been charged with one count of prostitution and her case is being handled by the Los Angeles County District Attorney, according to Doonan. Pang will not be charged and he currently does not have any other businesses in the city, Doonan said.

Hey, there's always Craigslist, right?
