Women Charged In PV Prostitution Bust

Women Arrested After Alleged Client Talks To Police

Two women are accused of running a prostitution business out of a Prairie Village house.

Karen Rutherford, 32, and Michelle Segall, 27, are charged with prostitution.

They are accused of posting racy ads online for massage services. But prosecutors allege the two were doing much more than that at a house near West 67th Street and Roe Avenue.

Prairie Village police Sgt. Greg Hudson said officers had been watching dozens of men come in and out since February as they kept surveillance on the house.

Hudson said police took into custody a married man who was allegedly caught going to the house on his lunch break. The suspected 'john' told police the women were selling sex. He said the clients parked across the street in a church parking lot.

Police said the women met some of their clients on the greens of a nearby golf course. They allegedly danced for men at the course and used golf events to meet more customers.

Rutherford and Segall were released on bond.
