Human trafficking suspect arrested for breaching bail

The Windsor Police Service has arrested a 60-year-old woman for allegedly breaching court-ordered release conditions stemming from human trafficking charges. 

In June 2023, Jian Lin was released on bail after being charged with trafficking persons, advertising another person's sexual services, receiving a financial or material benefit from trafficking a person over the age of 18, and receiving a material benefit from sexual services.

As part of her release conditions, Lin was prohibited from operating her residence as a lodging house and associating with anyone known to be involved in the sex trade.

Following an investigation, members of the Windsor Police Human Trafficking Unit determined that Lin had violated those conditions. Investigators discovered an online advertising for sexual services directed potential clients to an address on Felix Avenue that did not exist. Officers later determined that the advertisements were linked to a residence in the 3200 block of Linwood Place, near Felix Avenue. Two women linked to the advisements were located in the residence. 

Shortly after 12 p.m. on July 20, 2026, officers located arrested Lin near Riverside Drive West and Huron Church Road.

Lin has been charged with advertising another person's sexual services and failing to comply with a release order (x 2).
