Ohio prostitution operation busted, served illegal aliens

The Butler County Sheriff's Office in Hamilton, Ohio has busted a prostitution operation that served illegal immigrants. Detectives had received a confidential tip that an illegal immigrant named Primo was supplying prostitutes to other illegals in the county.

After making multiple calls to Primo's cell phone, undercover agents met with Primo and a prostitute. The undercover officers and the duo proceeded to a Hamilton motel. The prostitute charged $80 for two men.

Primo, actually Logan Carrasco-Zambrano, and the prostitute, Violeta Urena-Deluna, were arrested in the parking lot of the motel. Carrasco-Zambrano, 28, said he came to the U.S. illegally, two years ago, from Honduras. He is charged with two counts of promoting prostitution, a fourth-degree felony. Urena-Deluna, 45, stated she has been in the United States, illegally, for 28 years. She was charged with two counts of prostitution, a third-degree misdemeanor.

Both may face deportation procedures after answering for their stated charges. Investigation of the prostitution operation is ongoing.

Butler County Sheriff Richard K. Jones of Butler County has earned a reputation of being tough on illegal aliens. Two years ago, Jones posted six billboards by roadways in the county which said, “Hire an illegal — break the law!”
