Aren't strip clubs great? The customer has to pay to get in, the employees have to pay to work there and you pay double for the drinks LOL.

I said a while back on the stripper forum that Art's time was coming to a close. Guess we'll have a final date real soon. Lyle never had the brains for the business that Charlotte had. He'll also have to contend with a lot of sexual / employment harassment lawsuits now. Now there will be nothing protecting him from those. One can only afford so much lawyer time. Sad thing for the rest of us is those cabaret licenses are limited in how much they can be transferred. So strip clubs will end up ending in Milwaukee.

$2500 to $5000 fine? Seriously? The Eighth Amendment to the United States Constitution states: "Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted. " These cheap politicians think they're God, all this is going to do is backfire in their faces. Nobody will pay that nor could they even afford it. Get busted, why take a plea? It would simply cost less to hire a top notch lawyer and just get it thrown out or better yet go to trial, most of these cases are weak at best to begin with. Then they want to broadcast you on shame TV huh? OK that great, until one of their own gets busted! How many times has that happened? Too many to mention.https://shepherdexpress.com/news/fea...cent-increase/#/ questions.

Where the fines for either him or her can hit 6000.

Well, If I recall correctly they originally wanted to up the ante to $10,000, so I guess the $5000 is good news LOL Again, if I recall correctly, the ordinance covered actual soliciting, but also had language that said a person could be charged with "loitering" if they were in an area of know prostitution or in an area where someone had been arrested for prostitution in the past 5 years. I am not an attorney, but I guess conceivably you could get busted if you were sitting in your car alone on the corner of 6th and Greenfield.

J have never partaken in the SW thing. Not a huge fan. But from what I read on here, there are usually cops all over the place. So the SE article states there was a whopping 46 citations issued for soliciting in 2018. Seems to me to be a bit of overkill. What about the 118 murders in 2018? Oh well.

So when it comes to drugs, the dealer always has a harsher potential punishment than the buyer.

But when it comes to pussy, now they do the opposite. These criminal hypocrites that make the laws make me sick.

"Streicher did not show up for the meeting, but an investigation revealed his identity, which was confirmed by a special agent who formerly worked with him and identified his voice on the recorded calls, according to the complaint."

Here you go.

Well it is official. Your common council sucks!

Which is worst the public shaming or the increased fine? Seem like they use to do the public shaming but stopped it for whatever reason wonder if the previous administration noticed it wasn't effective or maybe it was so effective they thought it wasn't needed anymore. Either way will be interesting to see if this get passed, I don't see any reason why it wouldn't but this is politics so you never know. Also didn't know there were prositutes on the north side never see any out.

Actually it makes sense. Most cases don't go to trial. Sure he probably would've won, but the attorney fees would be brutal, as would the time lost from work. At the other end of the spectrum is Robert Kraft's case. He's got deep enough pockets, along with a vested interest in suppressing the video. I can't believe a judge approved video recording to trap guys looking for happy endings. The system is so fucked up!

Obviously could be true, but when you think about how cops almost always get breaks when they break the law themselves, this situation makes no sense.

[FltRider]

That's pretty Dystopian. I told my boss I wanted to kill him. Can I be arrested for attempted murder? I don't understand how this is a valid charge.

If you offer money for sex, you have committed a crime whether you show up or not.

[Zeuss]

This sounds really fishy to me. If he didn't show up to the hotel, I highly doubt they can do anything, and I highly doubt that they are wasting time and resources to check voices through phone calls when nothing even happened. The more likely explanation for me thinks that the pd made this up to try to scare mongers, and they paid this deputy to take the fall and make it look like anyone can be tracked. Which is even more pathetic LOL.
