AIKEN, S.C. (WRDW/WAGT) - Two employees at an Aiken massage parlor have been arrested on prostitution charges, according to the Aiken Department of Public Safety.

Investigators say that they have concluded a months-long investigation into Golden Fingers Massage Parlor, located at 655 Silver Bluff Road, Suite B. The investigation began following numerous public tips alleging that the business was offering sexual services in exchange for payment.

On April 14, after an undercover operation was conducted, investigators say a search warrant was obtained and executed at the business.

As a result, two employees were arrested and charged with prostitution.

Both were booked into the Aiken County Detention Center, according to investigators.

The department says the City of Aiken Business Licensing was contacted and advised that this business is not acting in accordance with the laws of South Carolina or the ordinances of the City of Aiken.

The South Carolina State Law Enforcement Division and Homeland Security Investigations assisted with this investigation.

However, this isn’t the first time a massage parlor in Aiken County has been raided–it’s the eighth

In August 2023,, search warrants at seven massage parlors in Aiken Countywere executed by the Department of Homeland Security, the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division and other local law enforcement.

Six of the businesses were in North Augusta, and one was in Aiken.

By law, all South Carolina businesses are required to have a city business license. Massage parlors are required to have an extra license for any therapist performing massages.

In Aiken County, it appears several- if not all seven parlors hadn’t had their updated licenses for quite some time.
