After the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment attributed the outbreak in part to individuals who frequented places such as Romantix, the company installed sheet metal on the walls of the booths at stores in Iowa City and elsewhere, covering the holes.Ī few weeks later, Romantix hired Williams, 24, to manage the company’s Iowa City store. In April 2017, there was an outbreak of hepatitis in Colorado, where the corporate headquarters of Romantix is located.
Like many of the stores in the Romantix chain, the Iowa City retailer features an arcade that includes private booths in which customers can preview adult videos.Īccording to Judge Louis' ruling, the booths were constructed with strategically placed holes in the walls that enabled patrons to anonymously engage in sex.
