Why don't LE harrass Victim crimes instead of victimless crimes ?

A prostitution criminal enterprise came to a screeching halt last Friday when Federal authorities and Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Officers raided a home on Coatbridge Lane and arrested three people involved in running an upscale prostitution service geared towards "affluent clientele."
According to the criminal complaint filed in Federal Court, Sallie Wamsley Saxon, 57, was a 'madam' who operated the local web-based escort service from her home in Charlotte. Saxon arranged the sexual encounters between the 'johns' and 'escorts' and collected 30%-50% of the profits. The average hourly rate for one of Saxon's prostitutes was $400. An overnight stay went for $3,500.

In addition to hiring local women, Saxon recruited women from all over the United States and world to come to Charlotte and work for her. She arranged for prostitutes to travel to Charlotte from Canada, Asia, Brazil, New York, Atlanta, Los Angeles and other places. Saxon would display the prostitutes' photo and profile on her members-only website and set-up the client/escort meetings in exchange for a cut of the profits.
Donald Verdery Saxon, 52, (middle) is Sallie Saxon's husband and partner in crime. Donald was responsible for collecting monies owed to Sallie and other miscellaneous duties. Federal Agents observed Mr. Saxon accept cash filled manila envelopes from prostitutes and watched him transport an out-of-town prostitute to her hotel after a nude photo shoot.
Hospitality versus Stupidity

Hollowpoint,
If you haven't gotten the purpose of this board you only need to read and respect its purpose before you post. This is a board for 'sharing' information which means that the information flow is bidirectional.
John Marigold told you in no uncertain terms (and you were lucky you weren't really flamed) what you need to do. LE has used this forum as a means of intelligence gathering and no monger in their ever loving mind is going to provide the kind of information you have requested to an unknown who has no credible, verifiable posts under their belts. We aren't talking numbers here for you can have 1,000 BS posts that contain no information at all.
Any newbie that comes requesting information is going to get nothing as that is not how it is done here. Give those users of this forum who contribute the courtesy to read the rules of the board and read past posts and as much as you can about this site and then you can become a contributor. I would advise anyone who desires to benefit from this forum to come not with questions but with observations.
Last but not least, welcome to the board and post your experiences and you will find information shall freely flow your way.
Be safe and happy hunting,
NC Hunter
