Prostitution Arrest May 24, 2001
The Whitfield County Sheriff’s Department recently received
intelligence information that prostitutes were operating out of a residence
located at 3017 South Dixie Highway. An investigation was initiated and a
surveillance of the residence was conducted. During the surveillance a large
number of vehicles were observed visiting the residence.
On May 23, 2001 at approximately 9:30p.m. a Sheriff’s Department
Undercover Officer was sent into the residence. Upon entering the residence the
undercover officer was charged thirty dollars by a male subject (Camacho) and
given a choice of having sex with one of the two girls working at the residence.
After the money exchanged hands surveillance teams attempted to make entry to
locked front and back doors. While officers were making forced entry, a male and
female in the residence jumped through two separate glass windows on the side of
the residence to escape. The female was located hiding in a field a short
distance from the residence. She had sustained lacerations and injuries from
jumping through the glass. Whitfield EMS transported her to Hamilton Medical
Center for treatment. As of this time officers have been unable to locate the
male suspect (Camacho) that fled the scene.
Maria E. Direnzo age 31, and Argentina Dela Cruz age 39, (both of
3017 South Dixie Highway) have been charged with Prostitution. A “customer”
in the residence has been identified as Carlos M. Lizcano, age 18, of Waugh
Street, Dalton. Lizcano was charged with one count of Pandering. Warrants have
been issued charging Geronimo Chavez Camacho, age 39 (of 3017 South Dixie
Highway) with Pimping and Keeping a Place of Prostitution. Investigation to
