Lots of "Traffic" today on Trop.
Just drove Trop from I15 to Decatur. LOTS of ladies out walking at 4:10pm. I counted about 10. Really! There is a gorgeous tall, thin very attractive WSW wearing 5 inch heels at the Burger King corner just standing there. Stationary mostly. This one looks waaaaay toooo good to be true for the street.
Maybe they're finally at the point of coming up for air out of the apartments they stay in for some roses. I'm sure they're short.
Be careful. And wash your hands! LOL.
Thanks for all of this recon and info
[QUOTE=MongerSeeker;4738772]I have watched sting operations on TV and they almost all have said the girl does not get in the car. In recent years I have noticed often times LE will have another UC watching the decoy close by. In one case I saw where there a cop dressed as a homeless person. This is also a tip off that a sting is taking place.[/QUOTE]From someone observing back here in chi-town. Every time I see posts like this I think back of a cops episode out in la la land on sunset I believe where they did a reverse sting. A cop was riding around in a beat up hugo in a birthday clown costume with a bouquet of balloons in the back seat and of course the show had sound on him so we heard the convo. Once the girl got into the car he drove away a bit, stopped and then the signal to move in was he reached back, got the balloons and released them into the air! I have to find that on you tube! When this actually aired (must have been early 90's) I was rolling on the floor!
I'm sure the guys feel better knowing that
[QUOTE=Jamesj;4752062]If you read the article, it was a "cooperative female " being used as a decoy. Thus she was NOT an uncover police officer.
JAMESJ.[/QUOTE]I'm sure the guys who were under the mistaken believe that if a girl got in the car they were home free are relieved to know the girl that actually did get in the car resulting in their arrest wasn't an actual cop but a "cooperating female. ".
At the end of the day, they still got their picture in the paper.
C3.

[QUOTE=VTown1968;4761475]You got it Stan. The past 10 Years I changed it up a bit. I will now grab a provider and get off the streets to avoid LE. In the 80's And 90's, forget about it. I got story's.[/QUOTE]Mr. Vtown. I as well through the 80's while on those streets would cruise up and down the rush street area, up and down the north side and the local fuzz could care less. Of course this is all before all the eyes in the sky and cell phones (you know, the devices where everyone and his brother and his brother in law think they are fuzz!) I remember picking up and chatting with providers right on clark or broadway (both main drags) and then just taking them to a side street. I mean if one follows the monger rules listed on here and just uses common sense I really don't think there will be issues. Look the reality is these providers are desperate and since desperate people do desperate things one is occasionally going to be pick pocketed or be a victim of cash and dash. However, money can be replaced. Once you are gone you are gone. While driving a cab one late night from downtown to the south side of chi-town I came real close to being gone! Held up at knife point so I got very luck and I cooperated with the crazy! I live on thankfully. Keep safe all. It's rough right now because all the sides (mongers, providers, fuzz) are spooked these days. Stosh peace and out!

I remember traveling to Los Angeles in the late 80's Early 90's With a buddy. There were probably 25 S. W. s Walking up and down Broadway, in front of CITY HALL At noon. Las Vegas was and still is different. I asked my buddy what L. A. P. D. Thought about the girls in thongs and spandex walking on City halls sidewalk. He said, L. A. P. D. Turns a blind eye until they feel like it. He said all major cities were the same. You had to play cat and mouse with the L. V. M. P. D. No breaks man. As for a busted windshield being the worst, Physical material stuff like you said is nothing. I did pick up a blond once around 10 Years ago. Half way to my place she thought I was someone else who had previously beat her up. It almost got ugly as she was freaking out. Lucky for myself, she bailed out at a red light. Been up sold countless times. But you saying the local fuzz didn't care, Yep I seen it in L. A. Be Well.
