Mary J. Doolin arrested for allegedly selling her daughter to an undercover officer

Cedar Rapids police arrested a 60-year-old woman yesterday for allegedly arranging her daughter’s prostitution.

Mary J. Doolin was arrested on Wednesday in connection to a September 29, sting operation where she allegedly met an undercover officer and offered him her daughter in exchange for money.

A few days later, Doolin’s daughter, Debra Voshell, 37, was arrested and charged with prostitution when she met with the undercover officer in Coralville.

During an interrogation, Doolin told police she had been running a prostitution ring for several years and her daughter was one of her whores.
