In a series of arrests that sound more like the plot of a gritty crime drama, seven young women have been detained, their hands cuffed as the sun sets on the city of angels. The crime they stand accused of? Selling something that should never be priced — the innocence of youth.

He’s got the scoop on a case that’s causing a buzz: the fraudster-vs-fraudster caper that’s more gripping than a high-stakes thriller.
