A Salt Lake man was charged in 3rd District Court earlier this month for assaulting his wife, whom he had been prostituting.

The man, 35, became angry with his wife after accusing her of performing more sexual acts than were approved by him for customers he had procured.

He hit her in the face, causing injury and pain, court documents say.
