CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa – A Cedar Rapids woman was accused of arranging her daughter's effort at prostitution. Mary J. Doolin was arrested Wednesday in connection with a Sept. 29 incident in Coralville.
Police said Doolin sent her daughter to meet an undercover officer who had contacted her during a prostitution investigation. According to police, Doolin's daughter, 37-year-old Debra Voshell, was later charged with pandering.
Police said Doolin admitted to running a prostitution ring for a number of years and has prior convictions for pimping and prostitution.
Doolin was being held Thursday in the Johnson County Jail in lieu of $10,000 bond.
When I read this headline I didn't there was going to be anything funny about this story. I figured some skeezy mom had pimped out her teenage daughter for meth money or something. But when I read the story the pitiful, abused teen daughter was in actually a middle aged woman who was probably whoring for her own motives. So why is all the focus on the mother? If you ask me she was simply helping her daughter reach her occupational goals. A parent should never stand in the way of their child's dreams. Kudos to Mary J. Doolin for helping her daughter. Pimpin' aint east Mary J but its necessary. Just ask Fancy Faye Baker's mom.
