Elected officials, doctors and lawyers are among dozens of men fighting to keep their names private as customers of an alleged brothel. On Monday, the highest court in Massachusetts heard arguments from both sides in the case.

In November, U.S. Attorney for Massachusetts Joshua Levy announced that three people were arrested for allegedly operating a high-end brothel network out of apartment complexes in Cambridge, Dedham, and Watertown, Massachusetts as well as Virginia. ...

"They will undoubtedly lose their jobs lose their professions and have their lives ripped apart," attorney Benjamin Urbelis, representing five alleged brothel clients, argued before the SJC.
