Ever Heard The One About the Brothel and the Seminary?

Is a "seminary" and a "Yoshi" a Jewish thing?

If so, we have a problem.

But we don't.

The story:-

'Heidi Fleiss of Houston'

Houston police say Deborah Turbiville and her husband Charlie ran one of the biggest call girl rings the city has ever seen. The couple was arrested last week, and Deborah Turbiville went before a judge Monday morning on a charge of aggravated promotion of prostitution. Their client list has more than 1,500 names, including professional athletes, doctors and lawyers, according to investigators on the case.

...Undercover investigators say the women met their clients at upscale hotels in the Galleria area and charged about $350 an hour.

They sometimes went to a luxurious three-bedroom apartment in the Memorial area to have sex. [the three-bedroom apartment in the 9900 block of Memorial Drive]

The apartment just happens to be next to a seminary [St. Mary’s Seminary].

Neighbors say they had no idea what was going on next door.

"I see some Mercedes and Lexus parked in the front, but that's only for a couple hours maybe," said a man named Yoshi, who didn't want to give his last name.

The most shocking part of this story is that it is not at all shocking. I don't think I even raised an eyebrow when I heard about this, which happened in my very own town.

That address they listed is in a very wealthy neighborhood. I don't think it's news to anyone that wealth is often generated through crime.

'American morality' is an oxymoron.
