Narcotics investigators with the Florence County Sheriff's Office arrested four people Wednesday in connection with a prostitution operation in Florence County.

The suspects posted sexually explicit photographs and narratives on a website to solicit potential clients, according to police. Investigators, posing as potential clients, arranged for the exchange of sex acts for money and made the arrests at a local hotel located near the intersection of U.S. Highway 52 and Interstate 95, police say.

Kristen Colville,18, of Lillington, NC, Shacolby Carter, 28, Brandy Baskins, 30, and Rainbow Climer, 25, of Charlotte, NC are charged with Prostitution First Offense.

The investigation is ongoing and additional charges are possible.
