Dunkin' Donuts employee Melissa Redmond busted for prostitution; sold sex out of restaurant

A New Jersey Dunkin' Donuts employee is in hot water for serving up more than just coffee and Coolattas, police said.

Cops hit Melissa Redmond, 29, with a prostitution rap after the Mine Hill, N.J. woman hawked sexual services to thirsty customers at a Rockaway Boro Dunkin' Donuts, the Asbury Park Press reports.

"I had gotten an anonymous tip," Detective Sgt. Kyle Schwarzmann told The Press. "She was a night-time employee, supposedly a very good one."

Redmond's arrest came after a six-week sting, aptly called: "Operation Extra Sugar." During the investigation, cops posed as johns and solicited sexual liaisons from the donut dealer.

The investigation began with Schwarzmann staking out the Dunkin' Donuts on Route 46 in Rockaway Boro - about a 20-minute ride from the city. He witnessed Redmond making lengthy trips to and from the shop's parking lot.

"Sometimes I'd even see money changing hands," Schwarzmann told The Press.

Two other police officers then went in street-clothes to the Dunkin' Donuts' drive-thru window and tried to solicit sex from Redmond.

"She said if he wanted a good time to call her and she gave him her phone number," Schwarzmann said.

The officer then parked in the parking lot and waited for Redmond, who came out a short time later and offered a menu that had nothing to do with bagels and coffee.

Schwarzmann told The Press that the officer retued on another night and repeated the scenario - and Redmond even offered to lower her prices.

The cop told Redmond that he had to go to a bank machine to get out some cash, Schwarzmann said.

When he retued, he parked in the parking lot and arrested Redmond when she came out. Redmond could not be reached for comment.
