Anyone from around Seattle get a taste?
Snohomish County
prosecutors charged Carmela Panico, a 52-year-old former nude dancer, with promoting prostitution and money laundering,
alleging that she operated drive-thru brothels throughout the county north of Seattle, The Everett Herald reported Thursday (

Her baristas made money mostly on tips, saying they could earn hundreds of thousands of dollars, authorities said. The women said they could make up to $14 for baring their breasts or genitals and charged more for sex acts, according to charging documents.
"Panico's businesses were driven by prostitution and lewd behavior," Snohomish County deputy prosecutor Bob Hendrix wrote in the documents. Panico was charged Thursday, the newspaper reported.
Her attorney told Snohomish County Superior Court that she left the coffee business and sold some of her stands and leased others.
