Suspects Arrested in Connection to Alleged Brothel in Glendale
After a lengthy police investigation, two suspects have been arrested in connection to an alleged brothel operating in Glendale. Xenia Cisneros, 44, and Gloria Roques, 39, are both facing criminal charges for their alleged involvement.
The investigation revealed that a residence near 75th Avenue was being used for commercial sex acts, with a significant amount of condoms, lubricant, and erectile dysfunction pills found at the location. Police began observing the residence back in January 2024 and discovered that Cisneros and Roques were transporting females to and from the address.
Witnesses disclosed that they were required to pay Cisneros a fee for each transaction with a client. Both suspects have been booked into jail this week.
