A federal indictment said Jessica Nesbitt took in millions of dollars through prostitution services that she and her employees provided in Illinois; Washington, D.C.; California; Florida; Indiana; Nevada and Wisconsin.
A Chicago madam who ran a West Side fetish business that hosted risque parties with labels such as "Halloween Mischief" for a list of clients reputedly including some notable names pleaded guilty Wednesday.
The indictment, filed more than three years ago, charged Jessica Nesbitt with prostitution and financial crimes. But her attorneys maintained she ran a legal business and paid her taxes.
CHICAGO (AP) A 35-year-old woman who prosecutors said operated a multistate prostitution business from a three-story Chicago building that functioned like a brothel pleaded guilty Wednesday to a federal conspiracy charge.
When she was first charged in summer 2019, Jessica Nesbitt’s attorneys insisted she ran a legal business and paid her taxes. But Wednesday, she admitted arranging for prostitution appointments and charging rates of $300 to $1,000 per hour “depending upon the services.”
