prostitution rings
Organized commercial vice
A prostitution ring is an organized criminal network that coordinates the buying and selling of sexual services, typically involving multiple prostitutes managed by operators who arrange clients, locations, and take a cut of earnings.
The term emphasizes the structured, business-like nature of the operation: Police busted a prostitution ring operating out of massage parlors across three counties.
Rings may involve trafficking, coercion, or willing participants, and the word often appears in law enforcement contexts.
