Two suburban women were arrested at a Palatine hotel on prostitution-related charges Friday afternoon as a result of an undercover operation that followed online ads.

Tiffany Denton, 20, of Timber Lane in Vernon Hills, was charged with felony pandering and Neringa Golombeckyte, 21, of the 9900 block of 87th Ave. in Palos Hills, was charged with prostitution.

The arrests came after an undercover Arlington Heights officer, operating as part of a task force chasing prostitution ads on Craigslist, responded to a posting on the Web site and eventually met with Golombeckyte at a Palatine hotel off Northwest Highway near Route 53, said Cook County Assistant State's Attorney Bill Cotter.

Golombeckyte allegedly agreed to perform a sex act for $200, Cotter said.

Subsequently, officers learned of Denton's role in the prostitution scheme as the person in charge of posting Craigslist ads and vetting customers, Cotter said. Denton, he said, was located in another room at the hotel.

Denton has a criminal record that includes other prostitution and drug related charges in the suburbs, Cotter said. Golombeckyte has a record that includes underage drinking, criminal trespass and an outstanding warrant on a DUI charge, he said.

Denton's bond was set at $10,000 by a Cook County judge Saturday, meaning she will have to post $1,000 to get out of jail. Golombeckyte's bond was set at $5,000, meaning she will have to post $500.
