POLK COUNTY, FL — A Dundee massage parlor owner was accused of grabbing a detective's groin Tuesday during an undercover operation identifying possible human trafficking victims and possible illegal massage parlor operations, the Polk Count Sheriff's Office said. Junxia Li of Lake Wales, 52, was arrested on charges of committing lewd acts at the I-Spa, 28079 U.S. Highway 27, Dundee, detectives said. "Illicit massage businesses can be hotbeds for human trafficking," Sheriff Grady Judd said. "Some people working in them are brought to our country with the promise of a better life, but that's not what they get. We will work hard to keep human trafficking out of Polk County by continually checking these types of businesses." At this time, there is no evidence or information that Li is a victim of human trafficking, according to authorities. Anyone with information about illegal activities or suspected human trafficking occurring in a Polk County massage parlor business is asked to call Heartland Crime Stoppers at 800-226-TIPS (8477) or visit www.heartlandcrimestoppers.com and click the "Submit a Tip" tab.
