I am not really sure if LE has all the license plates. But, they do have the ledger with the phone numbers and perhaps the security camera footage of everything other than the act itself, so if they want to go after clients they probably have all the information. Personally, I don't think they will go after clients in this case given the effort needed to get a conviction.

There are funny elements to the story though. One of the guys was apparently giving out receipts. Looks like there are some among us who get receipts and get reimbursed. LOL. Are these legit business expenses?

It could just be evidence placing someone at a certain place and time. I also think I can recall someone saying that the cops in Baltimore used license plate readers in areas known for prostitution and sending notices to those addresses on file stating that the vehicle was spotted in an area known for prostitution.

I've always wondered--what would the cops do with the license plate numbers? It wasn't illegal to park there and go into the building. Maybe try to trick or blackmail supposed clients into incriminating themselves? Anyone have any definite information on how they actually have used plate numbers in past instances?

Thanks for sharing this news report. I guess the cops got license plates of mongers visiting this romp-a-room.

They know which sites are used to advertise. What happens now? Is it unsafe to see anyone at this point?

Looks like they found the ads on multiple websites:

"reportedly found advertisements for the alleged brothel on multiple websites and gained information from an anonymous source who visited the address to pay for sexual acts, according to charging documents. Police also conducted surveillance over multiple days at different times of day and night and allegedly saw 20 to 30 vehicles come and go at various hours, staying for 30 to 60 minutes. ".

The police have always known this. This starts every couple of years on this site. The police have always known about this site, advertisers, the whole nine yards, what makes the difference is community complaints to police, I believe this.

I have been around a long time and have never encountered any drug use in MP but my own. I don't recall drugs being found in any MP bust.

I haven't heard of any either, but the force involved makes me wonder in this case. I guess if that was the case, we'll find out eventually.

Maybe drug dealing was involved? It was under the auspices of the "Frederick High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area" project. Or maybe they didn't have much to do and were just bored.

Why did Uncle LEO send in the SWAT team unless they suspected gang activity or some similar circumstance? That's a hell of a lot of firepower to bust a MP.

The government has given the police plenty of military equipment so they have to do something with it. Personally I would rather police look like police as opposed to "Proud Boys" and other absurd organizations.

It was clear from the outset that this wasn't a safe place to visit. The cops note that they have been watching this place for two months (in the FB link) - I wasn't sure LLs were operating from this place for that long. A large number of random cars pulling in and out of a rural area is bound to attract a lot of attention.

It stuck out like a sore thumb, it was way to obvious a location with so much high volume traffic and being so out in the open, surprised no mongers were said to have been arrested. Risk is always involved with this hobby but that was high risk.
