I guess this is the chance we all take
I was not attacking CV. It could happen to any of us.

Just my .02[/QUOTE]
Thanks to EP and others...
Wow EP you are either really willing to help or just really bored today! LOL. Seriously though, the info you provided was very in depth and helpful. Others have PM'ed me with similar info. I really hope I never have to experience the whole process, but in light of all that's going on lately it seemed like a legit question.
I also agree with your tips on how to be safe. I think the biggest and best one I mentioned earlier also. Think with the big head and not the little one.
Thanks again to you and those who have been willing to share their experiences on PM.
Be safe all.
Came close a couple times
but never busted. Both experiences were out of state, not here local. Years ago I was with a girl in my car at an out of the way spot and a motorcycle cop pulled up. He seen her head come up so it was pretty obvious what was going on. He made us get out, searched the car, and called for vice when he recognized the girl as a streetwalker. I thought sure I was going to be taken away that time but then he turns and says get out of here, I don't ever want to see you around here again. I said Yes Sir! and took off as fast as I could.
The second time was more recent, I had picked up a girl and about a block away I was pulled over with her in the car. He suspected that she was a working girl and said if she had priors we would be going to jail. There was a nightclub nearby so I told him that I was just picking her up to take her home. Luck was on my side that night, she had a completely clean record so he let us go. I did take her to her home after that and found out that she only did this on rare occasions, when she needed a little extra cash to get by. If it had been one of the crackhead streetwalkers that had been in and out of jail frequently I probably would have had first hand experience to relate on what the procedure was when busted. That was enough to scare me off of streetwalkers, and haven't picked up one since. It's just too risky. If that had been Nashville I wouldn't have got off so easy either time with the way the current attitude is.
The scary part to me about Marissa, not faulting CV at all, is that even if you rely on reports from reputable members here, it can still happen. There is always going to be some kind of risk with this hobby, but hopefully ones that have been reviewed as ok then turn will be few and far between.
It does go down mostly as EP says
It is a class B misdemeanor which has some scary consequences depending on who is in charge. Mostly it is the having your photo on the web and available to all search engines which causes the most embarrassment and problems. You will pay fines, you will be fingerprinted and in Homeland Security records which means they know what you have done every time you go through the airport or cross a border. You will have to get a health check to prove you are not the victim of an STD. Then you have to go to John School which is the easiest of all to finish. You will be amazed how many people are in John School and will understand how lame excuses sound for what was a stupid mistake. Getting a lawyer is the best plan and you will have to pay for that one out the nose also, but it will keep you from getting screwed when a dumbass deputy prosecutor wants to throw the book at you. It will be a year of probation with automatic jail time if you screw up in that time frame. If it ain't what you expected when you show up, just walk away because they are not going to give themselves away if you have not broken the law. They come in big droves and do threaten you if you give away their sting before it is up. When it happens you might as well take a seat on the side for awhile because until the terms of your plea deal are met the consequences are not worth the risk. Generally your deal can be expunged and that should be done as soon as possible because there are search engines just waiting to reveal your misdeeds if you don't take care of business. There is a Vandy law professor who believes the Metro approach to putting your picture on the web is challengable and he could win it, but it means revealing yourself to have been arrested if you choose to make that challenge. Metro special investigations are busy boys and girls and make money for their endeavors. Best to believe the TGTBT and play by the rules of the game about how to protect yourself. One slip and it is a lifetime branding.
[QUOTE=EroticPleasure]Lol, bored is not something I often have a problem with-wish I could find some time to be bored!
I just have been fairly quiet for the past couple of months because my life gets a little busier in the summer and I've been spending time developing my business (not my 'hobby' business LOL) so just haven't been around the board as much as I usually am. That's all!
When I am around the board more I frequently answer questions, give my 2 cents, my advice, etc. (& ruffle feathers by voicing when someone is dead wrong for something, or by vocalizing my opinion about something which might not always be similar to someone else's, defending people when I feel they're wrongfully attacked (which again, some people don't like but Imma be me wherever I am and without regard to whether someone else approves or not and I've always been one to stand up for myself and for others)) =) *Treat others as you want to be treated*
I'm WELL KNOWN for my long, verbose posts! The mouth-of-the-south at your service! (I KNOWWW some of you are cracking up right about now haha)
I've been involved with almost every aspect of the hobby off and on over the years so I try to be helpful when I can. And I have a legal background which is also sometimes helpful =)
Plus, I just love it around here. And love most of the folks around here so yanno! (and I'm feeling so loved because of all of the emails and PMs checking in on me and saying that you miss me on the board! ) I miss the board too!
Have a lot of buddies around here who I totally adore and have a lot of fun, relaxation, jokes, entertainment and other convo with. I don't care what anyone says, this is not just some 'cold board', it's a community and I love my little community! (said that like I owned it eh (snicker))
Sooo, I'm a social person and I like to help!
. And it was a very legit question. It's totally natural for one to wonder 'what if'! And if ya can't ask those who share the hobby, who can ya ask?
Til later! ,
*Hugs*
