United Airlines Pilot Bruce Wayne Wallis accused of running a whore house in Houston Texas

Authorities are accusing a United Airlines pilot of running brothels in the Houston area.

Prosecutors say Bruce Wayne Wallis ran more than six brothels, each with eight to 10 prostitutes. Authorities allege Wallis got $400 per week from each of the women. Some of the brothels were in office buildings.

Wallis made his initial court appearance Thursday after his arrest following an eight-month investigation by the Texas Department of Public Safety and the Houston Police Department's human trafficking division.

The 51-year-old is charged with engaging in organized criminal activity and aggravated promotion of prostitution. He's free on bonds totaling $15,000.
