Man, Woman, Sentenced In Texas Sex Trafficking Case
HOUSTON (April 10, 2012)–A federal judge has sentenced a man and a woman who prosecutors say smuggled Mexican women into the country to prostitute themselves at Houston-area bars and restaurants to prison.
A statement from the U.S. attorney’s office says Jose Luis and Maria Rojas were both sentenced to 16 years in prison after pleading guilty in November to conspiracy to harbor illegal immigrants and conspiracy to commit sex trafficking.
Prosecutors said Mexican women and girls were lured to the United States with the promise of legitimate jobs in Houston’s bars and restaurants, but instead were forced into prostitution.
Eight others have also pleaded guilty to charges relating to the operation.
Six were sentenced to eight to 11 months in prison, while two others await sentencing.

Houston Escorts: Call me Madam: Shelby Hodge’s secret career uncovered

houstonasianescort — Sun, 01 Apr 2012 12:36:47 +0000

Just as Houston Chronicle society writer Sarah Tressler’s second livelihood is being exposed, CultureMap has learned that our own social maven — Shelby Hodge — has a secret life of her own.
CultureMap editor-in-chief Clifford Pugh happened to bump into Shelby’s desk on Friday morning, sending her purse careening into the middle of the editorial room, spilling the contents everywhere. A leather-bound little black book and wads upon wads of Benjamins were most notable among the mess, and inquiring minds had to know the scoop.
The mishap revealed a fact that many influential men-about-town already know: Shelby Hodge is Madam S.
“Please, do not use the word prostitute or something so crass as hooker. My girls are ladies, courtesans, who’ve chosen the oldest career path in the world to buy themselves the finer things in life and to gain access to men with money,” said Shelby. ”This is completely off the record but more than a few of these beauties now live in big fine houses in River Oaks.”
