Police made a surprising discovery when they busted the alleged madam of a prostitution ring called "August Playmates": the woman running the show was an 80-year-old grandmother.
Authorities arrested Vera Tursi at her apartment during a sting operation last month to crack down on illegal prostitution rings posing as legal escort services. Police said Tursi could be the oldest person arrested for such a crime in New Jersey.
Law enforcement officials say Tursi was very upfront about her business, telling them she took it over a few years ago from her daughter who died. According to police, Tursi said she needed money to subsidize her Social Security checks
