What offense is committed when a person knowingly owns, invests in, finances, controls, supervises, or manages a prostitution enterprise involving two or more prostitutes?

Aggravated Prostitution
Illegal Gambling
Public Intoxication
Weapon Possession

The correct answer is: Aggravated Prostitution

Aggravated Prostitution involves the act of procuring or soliciting prostitution, owning or investing in a prostitution enterprise, or promoting prostitution involving two or more prostitutes. This offense is different from public intoxication, which refers to being visibly intoxicated in public, or illegal gambling, which involves participating in an illegal game of chance. Additionally, weapon possession would not be the correct answer as it does not involve any aspect of prostitution.
