Massachusetts high court rules initial hearings for 28 men linked to a brothel network will be public.

The Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court has ruled that the initial hearings for 28 men accused of being clients of a high-end brothel network will be open to the public. The decision upholds a previous ruling by a Cambridge District Court clerk-magistrate, who granted public access to the show cause hearings. The court also decided to keep the criminal complaints sealed until the first hearings in Cambridge District Court. The brothel network allegedly operated in Cambridge, Watertown, and Virginia.
