[QUOTE=Sxywhtguy1;5773778]These guys that got busted are fucking idiots. Anyone following the link read the article in it's entirety, especially the following.

" He went on to say that the majority hung up once they realized they would be meeting with a 16-year-old, but not these 13 men, many coming from surrounding counties. The men showed up at an undisclosed location near a park and an elementary school, making it a Class A felony for those charged with trafficking for a commercial sex act. ".

I mean these 13 guys have stupidity running through their veins!

Also, Thanks for posting the warning![/QUOTE]First lines of the article. Paying for sex is a crime we are seeing more of across Tennessee as officials look to crack down on sex trafficking.

"It is a problem I think is getting worse, rather than better," said Chief Mickey Miller of the Hendersonville Police Department.

Sounds like the Chief hasn't tried to get laid latley. I find it harder and harder to get a response or not ghosted, especially in Knoxville. Times are challenging in the hobby.

Now if that is not a prime definition of stupid I don't know what is.

So wouldn't it be considered in violation of the terms of service to advertise being of legal age? The sex trafficking thing has kinda gotten out of hand. 4 or 5 different agencies involved with unknown amount of man hours. When the charges are published there's few involved actually charged with trafficking. My preferences are to visit established ladies and stay away from the young ones.

I'm willing to wager this was what was behind some of the odd Hendersonville ads on STG a week or two ago.

Just because an officer or police spokesman said it to the media, doesn't make it true. There's no law against sizzling up a story for the press. Which LOVES trafficking stories and busts. A lot of guys in these headline type stories actually only get charged with solicitation. I hope they're not holding thier breath waiting on retractions from the police or local news regarding the trafficking stories though. They'd die first.

I've seen some stories about stings where the agency couldn't prove that age was ever mentioned at all, but.

The story still claimed that the men "knew" they were meeting an underage girl. I've read about things like " well the girl mentioned school, so the guy should have known". Well I've known several 19 yearolds still in school, so just a girl mentioning that she has school tomorrow doesn't automatically make her underage.

Having said all that, then yes, if it is shown that the age was clearly made known and these men still went, then we are in total agreement. Prime Definition Of Stupid. But a press release and a few quotes from Metro (or whatever agency) is pretty much useless on its own.

It seems to me the cops are creating a crime to get an arrest. I do not think anyone should be seeking out minors but if they can use these tactics for minors then they will begin to have these stings for consenting adults.

If these guys really did agree to meet with underage girls, then of course they're scum and deserve what they get. But it's pretty naive to take the police's word for this, particularly since most of these cases will never come to trial but will be pled out, so the District Attorney won't have to prove anything at all. If you don't think cops lie on the stand, or that a District Attorney wouldn't threaten with much more serious charges than they can actually prove or even actually bring to court, then you don't know how our justice system works. Any competent defense attorney will tell their client to take the plea deal, because the risk of losing in court, even if the sting never actually told you they were underage, is just too great. And if they can destroy a person's reputation in the press without ever getting him in the courtroom, then that's already a win in their eyes. Deterrence. And good luck winning a libel suit, even if the defendant can find a lawyer willing to charge the police department with that. They won't find a jury who will look fondly at the fact that they weren't really fucking teenagers, just cheating on their wives with prostitutes. The cops know they hold all the cards.

[QUOTE=YellowJacket;5762266]Ads posted on Skip the games and Listcrawler for girls in Hendersonville are very bad news.

Stay Away! Seniors PM for info.

You have been warned.[/QUOTE][URL]https://www.tennessean.com/story/news/local/sumner/2022/02/11/13-suspects-arrested-multi-agency-human-trafficking-operation/6669604001/[/URL]

I came across a post on scoop showing a lady that was found in a vehicle with multiple gunshot wounds. I remember her from the neck tattoo and spoke to her sometime last year when she used to post. I have attached 2 images, one from scoop (from scoop Facebook) and the other that was from her ad. It is very sad to hear news like these. Everyone stay safe out there.

Saw on the news where Metro Swat assisted in a sex traffic sting. Raids a business and private residence this afternoon.

Some of you may remember in April 2017 a country music want-a-be and escort Katie Quackenbush shot a homeless man in the mid section when he complained her music as too loud. She was crazy then and yesterday she was found guilty of the shooting. I never saw her but several members had and said she was nuts. Guess these ladies have just gotten worse since then.
