We often get concerned when some newbie monger greatly overpays and causes price inflation. Feel sorry for the Jupiter mongers if they have to compete with billionaires!

Love being a Pats fan, even our owner scores!

[QUOTE=ZekeWilson;4166062]That Affidavit of Probable Cause is some interesting reading indeed. It's a dangerous world.[/QUOTE]Indeed it is. Uncle LEO's police state tactics are frightening. The United States has become much more of a surveillance state since the 9-11 terrorist attacks, but this goes beyond the pale. I hope lawyers for the mongers involved are willing to challenge the police tactics as a violation of the Fourth Amendment's prohibition of unreasonable searches and seizures.

I'm against human trafficking as much as anyone else and I hope none of the providers I've seen over the years have been in the profession against their will. However, I'm also against using the possibility that trafficking exists as an excuse to crack down on consenting adults behavior simply because an exchange of money is involved. I'm hoping one or more judges will put a stop to Uncle LEO's foolishness; then perhaps our insane laws can be changed.

I have yet to every meet anyone who is being forced to work.

Sorry, I'm not smart enough to post a link but there's a good article on the recent Florida events on their website.

[URL]https://nypost.com/2019/02/28/how-patriots-owner-robert-kraft-could-get-off-in-prostitution-case/[/URL][/QUOTE]The lawyers have so much tools at their disposal to pick apart all of the legally shady things the police used in obtaining the evidence that will almost certainly be admissable in court. From illegally pulling over Kraft in the first place for non-existent traffic violations to taking the video and trying to prove it wasn't a non-consensual activity, it's going to be an extremely hard case for the police dept. To fight especially considering their biggest ploy tactic seems to be wanting to prevent sex trafficking, an argument lawyers are sure to drill holes into considering the police made no attempt to actually rescue the claimed "victims" and rather did the opposite by arresting them. This is why these raids often end up being nothing but a waste of time and tax dollars because it really is an uphill battle once you go to trial.
