Giving a whole new meaning to the phrase family owned and operated…
Federal agents picked up a 16-year-old Robertson County high school girl earlier as part of an investigation into a prostitution ring. Somehow nasty ass looking Casey West managed to lure the girl into prostitution. His mother Teresa Ann West handled setting up meetings with men.
Mom wasn’t just pimping out the school girl. She’d also been pimping out her daughter Diana West for quite some time.
As of this writing, Metro’s Specialized Investigations Division and the FBI have only accused the trio of using one 16-year-old cheerleader type to perform sexual acts, however, other underage victims are believed to be involved.
After receiving an anonymous tip earlier this year, police began conducting surveillance at a Murfreesboro Motel 6 in early August. Police finally got their chance to pinch Teresa West on August 3rd, after setting up surveillance at a Motel 6 on Chaffin Place. Officers watched West leave a room key card on a wall in the parking lot and leave.

A little later, they got to watch 16-year-old cheerleader type drive up to the sleazy motel and enter into West’s room, using the key card. Metro detectives and FBI agents then entered the room and interviewed the 16-year-old girl. The girl said she had had sex for money at the direction of Teresa West about 20 to 30 times this summer. The girl said men would give her $110 for full release, forty of which would go to Teresa West.
Here’s a shocker! During testimony in open court, Diana and Casey West’s father, Tim, said his children had never been in serious trouble. Translation, this is the first time they got caught.
Outside the courtroom, Tim West said he did not know whether the charges against his children were true. "It’s my son. I love him, and I’m standing by him," Tim West said. "The truth will come out." Notice good ole dad didn’t mention his hooker daughter. Guess he doesn’t like the idea of her doing strangers for money.
After the hearing, a federal judge released Casey West into his father’s custody after sending the case to a federal grand jury.
His sister, who authorities said had worked for her mother as a prostitute, also has been released.
The mother, has been left sitting in jail since being picked up Aug. 4th.
