Xu started posting to Facebook the day after she was released from jail. Police say she was sharing photos of former employees, saying she believed they were cooperating with police and conspiring against her case.

Investigators said Xu also posted a picture of her co-defendant, Robert Yerick, calling him a liar and a beast and claiming Yerick lied to the attorney general to be a witness in the case against her.

Xu ran four Tokyo massage parlors in Allegheny and Westmoreland counties.
