It was after the couple’s finances deteriorated that the man came up with the proposal to let the woman sell sexual services in their home. According to the woman, she had up to ten customers a week for two years.
In addition, the man is said to have surreptitiously filmed the sex purchases for the purpose of blackmail to get her to continue. In connection with the investigation, the police also found child pornography on the man’s computer. The man denies all the charges.
