In these chickenshit massage parlor busts, they frequently don't file any charges; the cases are hard to prosecute, if the ladies are arrested and make bail they will frequently skip the state, and overall it's a big waste of time and taxpayer's money.
These crusaders can grab headlines with intimidating photos of the establishment (scaring away skittish mongers), close the place down on zoning violations, and claim they have knocked over yet another evil den of corruption. Plus, they get to keep any cash and property that was confiscated during the bust.
Karens can crow victory, police look busy, and politicians can claim do-gooder status.
Everyone's happy except mongers and providers who wish to make mutually beneficial, victimless transactions.
