I know this was briefly discussed on the massage parlor board, but if you're the type of monger that frequents an AMP in that city from time to time, this might be the end of the HE action there as we know it.

This is likely the work of the same perpetrator.
This victim was Rochelle, late 30's at least. SW Detroit area and girl. She had her problems, was a handful, but was a good person at heart.
I assume investigators will look at this one too.
Who ever did this to these girls should die. These girls didn't deserve this.

Are you sure her name was Rochelle, as I only knew of one WSW in Southwest area from 2014 till about 2016, early 30's at the time with long brown hair and average to thin build, from the Tennessee Kentucky area, and actually I just talked to her this week that used the name Rochelle? They say there's others and I wonder about little Monica S. That was found at 1:30 am laying in the street at Fort and Calvary on May 31,2019 a victim of hit and run, they said.

" GARDEN CITY, Mich. A Garden City man is facing charges after he allegedly targeted and killed sex workers in Southwest Detroit.

Lawrence Paul Mills III is accused of murdering two women and assaulting two other women.

Detroit police Chief James Craig described what Mills allegedly did.

"Investigation determined he would approach his victims for a paid sexual encounter, engaging the sexual act inside of his vehicle and following the act after the victims would leave the vehicle, and they were on foot," Craig said. '"He (Mills) would use his vehicle as a weapon, striking the victims in each of the four and possibly a fifth case. ".

Its a job where it is legal. Not a means to support a drug habit. LEO is there to protect and serve the legal sex worker not arrest them.

We haven't see the wave of crime those opposed to legal cannibis predicted either. Now I just have to get my employer to give up on random drug testing.

They prefer to be called "Sex Workers" and yes, it could be a job considering the qualification for these gals to do anything else is limited, at least without giving them a chance.

Most people who oppose an issue are speaking on an emotional platform and not a factual one. They view cannabis as simply as a drug along with the hardcore stuff. They aren't educated to the facts of it or any other.

Random drug testing is still a good habit for employers to detect hard drugs. What you should hope for is for them to omit the cannabis results and accepts it's legal status.

How does Amsterdam do it? How does Las Vegas do it? How do any other countries that legalize prostitution avoid the violence, drugs and robberies?

Illegal in Las Vegas, Clark county. Legal brothels in rural counties regulated and taxed. High price points keep riff raff out. The controlled environment makes a safer but fairly expensive setting.

Before the Covid, I was a frequent traveler to Greece. Prostitution is legal in certain areas, the red light districts felt very safe. There were police every block. There being a prostitute is a career. Here it is mainly used to support drug habits. The girls in Greece are regulated with no real problem I could see.

Like legalizing marijuana, Just think of the tax revenue prostitution would generate for the communities instead of draining money from them, calling things sex trafficking when they're nothing but prostitution. Warren and their two large stings are good for that. The one girl I know that was on the first one that got busted in it, was out of jail within a few days. Just a big media hype to try to prove their worth to the community. I'm all for the legalization of prostitution for consenting adults.

Agreed. I just think trying to regulate would be a problem for them, plus, far too many liberal minded self-righteous busy bodies who would fight tooth and nail to keep it illegal.

[Concupiscent69]

Highly doubt taxing is at all a concern for what prostitution brings to cities. Violence, drugs, robberies.

Prostitution is the willingness to sell sex while trafficking is forcing one to sell sex. LE love to use them as the same when to uphold their case, but they are not. I completely understand sex trafficking law but a willing participant who sells shouldn't be illegal. Big daddy is only pissed off because the don't know how to collect revenue from it.

Well prostitution is a respectable profession when a nice woman fucks a guy for money, e. G. Melania Trump. Sex trafficking is when a Croatian gangster kidnaps your 14 year old daughter, sends her to Bangkok and chains her to a sewer pipe and injects her with heroin. The former is fairly common and the latter is common only in the imagination of legislators and newspaper publishers.
