COLUMBUS, Ohio, Dec. 1 (UPI) -- Police in Columbus, Ohio, said a real estate agent and an Ohio State University medical center employee have been charged with running a prostitution business.

Columbus vice detectives said Christopher Johnson was arrested on felony prostitution charges after he allegedly used his work computer at the Ohio State school of nursing to help set up the prostitution ring, WCMH-TV, Columbus, reported Monday.

Investigators said Central Ohio real estate agent Rusty Blades was also hit with felony prostitution charges for allegedly helping to organize the business, which sold $10 raffle tickets for a drawing that awarded the winner an hour with a prostitute.

Vanise Dun, who formerly worked for the Franklin County Children's Services department, was charged in November with being one of the prostitutes involved in the scheme.
