在2024年1月18日至25日期間，美國紐約警察對皇后區的羅斯福大道進行色情業掃蕩行動。該行動首先由臥底警察扮成顧客進行，當場成功逮捕嫌疑人。過程中成功破獲十多間偽裝成按摩院的妓院。隨後，根據法院命令，這些場所被查封，並宣布如果敢再度營業，將持續進行掃蕩。

紐約市長表示，這些業者長期剝削性工作者，讓妓女長時間在骯髒的環境中工作。當地居民指出，在這些妓院內，床位僅以簡單的布簾隔開。

During the period from January 18 to 25, 2024, the New York Police conducted a crackdown on the sex industry along Roosevelt Avenue in the Queens borough. The operation began with undercover police officers posing as customers, leading to the on-the-spot arrest of suspects. Several establishments disguised as massage parlors were successfully exposed during the operation. Subsequently, based on court orders, these places were sealed, with a warning that continued operations would result in ongoing crackdowns.

The Mayor of New York stated that these operators have been exploiting sex workers for an extended period, subjecting prostitutes to prolonged work in unsanitary conditions. Local residents pointed out that within these brothels, sleeping areas are separated only by simple curtains.
