Investigators said they made arrests when women would agree to participate in prostitution. Officials said all of the women arrived with men who are also facing charges.

Several individuals were charged with prostitution, promotion of prostitution, possession of marijuana, and possession of controlled substances. Some were also arrested on outstanding or out-of-county warrants.
