She is accused of running a brothel from a Thai massage parlour in Scarborough, England as a means of funding her gambling addiction.  Between 18 August and 27 November 2014, around 72 sexual acts were believed to have taken place. 

Beck was arrested in 2014 and ultimately charged in 2015.  Beck was arrested at the premises on 27 November 2014 and she was charged on 22 May 2015 with managing a brothel.  She pleaded guilty to the offence on 22 June 2015 where the case was committed to Crown Court for sentencing, which finally took place this week.

Detective Inspector Glenn Kelly noted that all male clients have since been notified regarding the potential for spread of sexually transmitted diseases.

He added: “We believe there were a number of other men who possibly engaged in sexual activity at the San Sabai massage parlour on Albermarle Crescent in Scarborough. To minimise the risk, our strong advice is to refer themselves to a sexual health clinic or their GP for a sexual health check-up as soon as possible.”
