Two more arrests were made in an alleged prostitution ring and the Gwinnett County woman accused of running a brothel from her posh mansion was expected to speak out Wednesday.

Two more men have been charged by Gwinnett County authorities in connection with a case alleging that two women ran a high-priced brothel out of a home at the upscale Sugarloaf Country Club.

Warrants were issued Tuesday for Kerry Philip Kruzel, 43, of Cumming and Marc Alfred Garzon. Kruzel is the third man so far to be charged with a misdemeanor of pandering in connection with the case. Garzon is charged with a felony of conspiracy to distribute marijuana.

Police contacted Kruzel by telephone Tuesday and informed him of the charges that were being filed against him. At that time, Kruzel said he would turn himself in at the Gwinnett County Detention Center. Authorities, at first, had trouble contacting Garzon but he surrendered at the jail Tuesday evening.

Police said Lisa Ann Taylor and Nicole Probert were running a high-end prostitution ring out of their home and charging prices up to $10,000 for sexual acts. Taylor and Probert were arrested this month on racketeering, prostitution and drug charges.

Prosecutors allege that Taylor, an exotic dancer, was running a house of prostitution out of her million dollar home.

Taylor, who uses the stage name Melissa Wolf, was expected to speak to the media at her attorney's house in Norcross around 2:00 p.m. Wednesday before leaving for dancing engagements in Detroit and Ontario, Canada. Taylor maintains her innocence.

A total of eight people have now been charged in the case.
