Prostitution Sting Nets Man, 68, Wearing French Maid's Uniform And Chastity Belt

A 68-year-old Florida man wearing a French maid’s outfit and a chastity belt was among dozens of alleged johns swept up in an undercover prostitution operation targeting suspects placing and answering online sex ads.

The five-day crackdown by the Polk County Sheriff’s Office and the Lakeland Police Department netted 95 arrests and was highlighted by the collar of David Marsh, who told officers he worked for Home Depot.

According to cops, Marsh answered an online ad and “solicited the undercover female detective to dominate him.” Marsh, police say, rode his bicycle to a hotel where he met up with the undercover agent in her room. Marsh travels on a bike because he lost his driver’s license following a drunk driving arrest.

Once inside the hotel room, Marsh peeled off clothing to reveal his maid’s uniform, chastity belt, and the dog collar around his neck. A hidden video camera recorded Marsh conversing with the undercover, as well as his bust by an arrest team.

Investigators released video of Marsh in uniform (a screen grab can be seen above). Marsh’s rap sheet includes prior arrests for DUI, theft, and soliciting prostitution.

Dubbed “Operation Naughty Not Nice,” the prostitution sting ended Sunday and included the arrest of 50 alleged hookers and 33 johns.
