A Tacoma woman is being charged for allowing two 15-year-old girls to prostitute themselves in the home she shares with her two young boys.

Police say they spotted an ad on backpage.com while they were investigating juvenile prostitution.

Detectives called the number in the listing and made arrangements to meet. That led them to Jacqueline Nicole Carr’s apartment.

Investigators report Carr admitted she knew what the girls were using the room for.

The News Tribune reports Carr has pleaded not guilty to two counts of promoting commercial sexual abuse of a minor and is being held on $50,000 bail.

The Associated Press contributed to this report.
