Woman employer appears in court with 2 Pinay helpers in sex-for-pay case

Luxury tower blocks on Tregunter Path, Mid-Levels

An elderly Hong Kong woman who was allegedly behind an online sex-for-pay operation based in her luxury Mid-Levels flat, appeared in District Court on May 9 with her two Filipina helpers who have been tagged as her accomplices.

Heidi Wong Pui-ting, 69, is named as the first defendant in a charge of conspiracy to live on the earnings of prostitution of others. Her helpers Jo-an Palpal-latoc, 40, and Jeanette Gallego, 47, are named as co-defendants.
This was the first time Wong stood in the dock with Palpal-latoc and Gallego, who were  in police custody for nearly eight months before they were freed on bail on Jan 7.

Wong has been out on bail along with her 72-year-old sister and a male relative who were arrested with her and the maids during a police raid on May 17 on her house in Tregunter Path, Mid-Levels.
Judge W.K. Kwok adjourned the hearing to Jul 14 at the prosecution’s request so a separate case of money laundering against Wong and Pal-palatoc in connection with the prostitution case could proceed in Eastern Court.
The two are accused of laundering about $20 million in earnings from the illicit business.

The next scheduled hearing of this case is on May 21.
“The money laundering cases against D1 (Wong) and D2 (Palpal-latoc) have the same facts as the conspiracy cases to make sure there are no mishaps and further delays,” the prosecutor told the judge.
The prosecutor said that the money laundering charge will be consolidated with the sex-for-pay case at the District Court on Jul 4 before trial is scheduled.
According to the prosecution, the two helpers were tasked to man several dating websites offering sex for a fee, and taking orders from prospective foreign clients.

But their employer and her relatives were allegedly behind the prostitution ring.
