I spoke to one of my regulars this week and she said that the Newark PD has been having a few stings the past few weeks. She was out there when they arrested about 10 guys. She told me that they must have been newbies because it was pretty obvious it was a sting.
She told me they had 3 undercover decoys, 1 black, 1 white and 1 spanish. She said they looked looked like "Soccer Moms who were dressing up as hookers for Halloween!" It makes sense because I never see hoes dressed provocatively in Newark, they always wear regular jeans and shirts when they are on the stroll.
She also mentioned that the police women would stand on the corner and yell and wave for the guys to pull over. Once again, that is behavior that I never see from most working girls. They don't make a scene or stand outside the car to negotiate.
Be careful out there fellas, the majority of us can spot a sting a mile away but newbies need to take note.
