Felony charges for man who sent hookers to neighbors' home

As far as etiquette goes, I was always taught it's considered downright neighborly to send hookers over. Times have changed.

Omaha, Neb-

An Elkhorn man faces felony charges after he sent prostitutes to his neighbors' home over the course of several years, according to court documents.

The incidents happened as many as 25-30 times per year over the last 3 1/2 years, investigators said.

45-year-old Douglas Goldsberry is in the Douglas County jail Thursday, facing charges of pandering and solicitation of prostitution.

Court documents said Goldsberry, a married man, admitted to investigators that he would solicit prostitutes to his neighbors' home, asking them to strip down, and watching the women, occasionally taking photos from his kitchen window across the street.

"It's very twisted, "Don Kleine, Douglas County Attorney said.

A couple with two toddlers lives in the home that was targeted. Court documents said the family feared for their safety as the women would strip down on the porch, then occasionally kick the door or urinate in the yard, expecting payment.

Deputies made contact with some of the escorts, tracing communications in their phones back to an app. That app led investigators to a Cox Communications account registered to a subscriber at Goldsberry's home.

Investigators said Goldsberry also admitted to meeting escorts at hotel rooms on a regular basis and exchanging money for sex.

"It's obviously a little bit hard to imagine, to fathom, that somebody would go to these lengths to have women appear at a neighbor's house, so he could watch them," Kleine said.

Kleine said the charge for solicitation of prostitution is Goldsberry's second offense.

Neighbors in the area said the strange activity has been causing concern for years, even happening to the previous owners of the home.

Now, they're just happy to have an explanation for the bizarre occurrence.

"Well, I'm glad its come to a close. I mean, so the people on the house on the corner, they can start living a normal life and be outside with their kids and things go back to normal in our neighborhood," one man said.

Goldsberry's first court appearance is schedule for 9 a.m. Friday.

The family across the street has now taken out a protection order against him. They declined to comment on Thursday.
