[QUOTE=BenDhover;6332137]Cute. Written after you blow your load on the floor of an ACS.[/QUOTE]What's the point of that other than to ignore and minimize actual sex trafficking? No, I don't frequent ACS / LCS and not because every place is some sort of slavery den but because I want to be safe and avoid the chance of engaging in a trafficking. If you've found an ACS or LCS that you trust, then that's great. Everybody should do that.
Are you that jaded to think that you can't have morals in this hobby? Or maybe this is how you justify your own behavior by saying that "everyone does it" and taking advantage of women so you can save a couple of bucks? I'd rather pay a premium at a place I trust to do things ethically. But hey, who knows. Maybe next, you'll tell me that it's "cute" to tell guys not to roofie girls.
[QUOTE=JayCramer80;6338813]They don't understand these girls are not victims of Human Trafficking. They come here on their own because they can make way more money than they can in Asia. The ASC girls in hotels may be, but the AMP's are not. I know several girls personally, and they are their own boss. They come and go as they please and don't owe anyone. I have't met a single AMP girl over the past 7 years or so that is a victim of human trafficking. I know a couple that came here because they had an abusive Asian husband who beat the crap out them or gambled away their savings.[/QUOTE]You're over generalizing here, and I think a lot of people need to educate themselves on this topic. The power a trafficker may hold over a victim may never be violent or physical. Its often financial or psychological (ex. A promise of higher paying jobs). The trauma can be so great that the victim may not even think they're a victim, or be to scared to report their trafficker. Even forced labor in a completely legit massage parlor is considered human trafficking.

Been doing this for years, Many of these women who do massage, especially the older women work voluntarily for the money because with their limited skills, to make this much money in China is impossible. I do not rule out that China is the biggest franchise corporation in America, but I don't know for sure. Many women in the business come and go from place to place, knowing they will be underground except when they go to Flushing. Remember,the Chinese do not think like we do,these women are singularly focused and actually do not like Americans, with exceptions of course. So, new parlors keep opening and people are making money. If you find a good girl, get her number, you may have some fun in and out of the shop but rarely does it last for long. Everybody uses everybody, go have fun.

You would hope it wouldn't need to be said, but perhaps it does LOL. Along with never sending money in advance, a good policy is never give your SB the code to your hotel safe. Looks like someone in Vegas just got bitten bad by doing so.

I've come close a couple of times, but have never taken the plunge. Did anyone else notice that this story broke the day after election day? This whole thing was done by the DHS feds, taking full advantage of human trafficking laws enacted after 9-11. Either the cop who wrote the affidavit did PhD-level research or perhaps had a lot of experience himself in the hobby. One other observation: It appears as if this investigation started in Boston and spread to NOVA when the "PhD" started connecting the dots.

In many ways, it's all about the Benjamins as they're more likely to target defendants from whom they can reap the most asset forfeiture and / or the most publicity. The local depts usually share in the forfeiture haul, as well as ensuring that the spigot of anti-trafficking grant money keeps flowing.
The other thing to consider is that cases don't necessarily start at the federal level. A local dept can start an investigation and if / when they find enough money and indicators of (loosely defined) trafficking, they'll often pitch it to the feds. They'll have to share the credit, but federal forfeiture authority is usually broader and more wide-ranging, so there will be a larger pot of money to spit.
Edit: The word "split" autocorrected to "spit," which is rather appropriate!

Independent = hard to spin their activity as "trafficking," little $ at play.
Incall = activity takes place at a location that's not linked to you.
Burner + cash = self-explanatory.
If you show up on surveillance video, so what? At most it's a misdemeanor, which means it's not worth anyone's time to investigate. Plus all someone has to do is deny criminal behavior by saying it was a photo session, or something like that. Of course, best to never say anything. But, if backed into a corner, deny, deny, deny!
Once you venture beyond the above you increase your level of risk. As current events demonstrate, agencies are great, until they're not. And handing over your PII so you can be with a real hottie is no problem, until it is.
P.S. Always important to be sure you're seeing a true independent. Reviews should help make that clear.
I have to say though, it seems like most of the busts that have taken place every few years are agencies that use "that" apartment complex. I know Mosaic is a good spot, but there has to be something better around because it feels like that apartment complex either has uncooperative management or the neighbors are way too nosy about foot traffic (maybe sound proofing is bad?

The biggest problem for any apt location is nosy neighbors, which is impossible to predict in advance. Management is obviously another problem, but in a big and busy complex, like Mosaic, they probably wouldn't be aware of anything unless they received complaints from neighbors. When you think about it, it's pretty hard to hide a constant stream of comings and goings of men, no matter what the location. Neighbors will likely suspect drugs, or prostitution, or both.

Most successful incalls were in apartment complexes in the 'burbs where there were outside entrances to each apartment or condo. The setup was very much like a Residence Inn. There was no doorman or key card for an outside gate. Several ladies used the same apartments / condos. It was generally unoccupied except for the times when one of the ladies was seeing a client.
On the flip side OPSEC-wise, I remember signing up for an afternoon gangbang in Reston several years ago that took place in a large, very middle-class apartment complex. The instructions were to show up at a specific time and to go to a certain apartment. I got there a little early, so I sat in my car in a visitor's parking space in a location where I could look at the designated entrance. The first thing I noticed was that there was way too much going on outside. Cars were coming & going and multiple moms / nannies were outside with young kids. At the appointed time, there must have been a dozen or more guys simultaneously get out of vehicles and walk to the same entrance. This was way above my threshold of OPSEC pain, so I left. This operation was busted just a couple of weeks later.
Also many years ago, I got to know an owner of a small escort agency in a medium-sized city out west. I was pretty much a "regular" when I was in town on business. He told me once that there were two keys to success: 1. Be low-key; and, 2. Pay your taxes.

As far as prostitution-related misdemeanors are concerned, I'm not a lawyer but, since the alleged illegal act (exchanging $ for sex) is unwitnessed, it's hard to see how the state could proceed when any defendant could simply deny (or plead the 5th). Even flipping a provider wouldn't necessarily tip the scales. That's a lot of heavy lifting for a misdemeanor, IMO. If there is anything that might rise to the level of a state felony, however, that's obviously something that could be charged. Hard to say what that might be.
I could be wrong, but I continue to think that (some) clients have more to fear from possible non-criminal fallout. That doesn't preclude the possibility that fed and state LE might choose to make an example of some individual clients, but it seems to me that the main effort will be against the alleged "trafficking" and money laundering violations.

Interstate movement of sex workers, money laundering, Covid relief fraud. The feds have every reason to go after the leaders of BEG.
Any Federal repercussions of Johns would be non criminal. A leak of names, general gossip / smearing of reputation among feds / LE, a security clearance violation, even blackmail. Most at risk would be political enemies of the justice department, those with a security clearance, or names big enough to have a Wikipedia page.
A former state prosecutor who ran a sex trafficking unit put it best: "The feds will prosecute the three defendants and then there will be hundreds of sex buyers who have been operating by purchasing sex from these women in these locations and the state will have to decide how to proceed. " [URL]https://www.nbcboston.com/news/local/boston-brothel-mass-sex-trafficking/3186274/[/URL].
At the state level, I imagine the highest risk would be those who visited within the last year, those that explicitly discussed sexual acts and payment, those with multiple visits, and those with a paper trail of payment. Also anyone who the feds gathered pictures / video of during their surveillance and personally identified.
This would be a new kind of case for Fairfax County, with lots of legal uncertainty, all for a nonviolent misdemeanor that the county hasn't been prioritizing.
Certainly possible, but I'd say it's more likely than not someone who recently went to BEG and gave up PII will face criminal charges.
Thought it was interesting in the case today the government discussed a conflict with the judge. Seems possible LE or members of the the office were among the Johns.

And, since trafficking is a felony, you're saying that you believe clients have more to worry about than misdemeanor or security clearance issues.
Agree to disagree, I guess, as I haven't seen anything suggesting that clients are facing that level of jeopardy. One way or the other, we should know soon enough.
