Brice McCallum, a Scottsdale man with a prior record spanning DUI, identity theft, forgery, drug possession, and theft, was arrested Tuesday on eight felony counts after Scottsdale PD detectives said they dismantled a prostitution operation he ran through his girlfriend's condo near 68th Street and Camelback Road.
The investigation began last December, according to court documents cited by AZFamily, when detectives found multiple online escort advertisements. Undercover officers messaged a woman whose ad they found, later identified as McCallum's girlfriend, and arranged a meeting. She directed them to her condo at 68th Street and Camelback Road. Detectives then reviewed her profile on an adult website and found more than 40 reviews describing the vetting process, appointment scheduling, travel to the condo, and payment for sexual services.
Investigators built the case through a combination of online escort ads, Motor Vehicle Division records, surveillance, and background details embedded in photos, all of which placed McCallum and his girlfriend at the same address. On Aug. 13, police pulled over a man leaving the condo who admitted he had paid the woman $300 for sex and identified her boyfriend as McCallum.
On Tuesday, an undercover detective arranged another appointment. McCallum was arrested as he left the condo. He declined to speak with officers and requested an attorney. Detectives then executed a search warrant. His girlfriend was taken into custody at the scene.
Court paperwork says the girlfriend told police she has been dating McCallum for four years and earns about $9,000 a month through sex work. She also told investigators she made an additional $1,500 from three prostitution dates during a Las Vegas trip. She said McCallum does not work; she pays rent, living expenses, and for his drug use, including methamphetamine and fentanyl. Police said McCallum is aware of her sex work but does not force her to do it.
Detectives also found text messages linking the girlfriend to a fentanyl supplier, according to the report.
McCallum was booked on seven felony counts linked to prostitution and one count of possessing drug paraphernalia. A judge set his bond at $100,000. His girlfriend could face prostitution charges.
