Rumor? Bomb scare gave access?
[QUOTE=Wolverines;4167454]This was shared in our forum. Lots of surveillance details.[/QUOTE]The rumor up north is that LEO claimed a bomb scare, evacuated the spa and planted cameras as they searched for the bomb. Supposedly after close on 1-17-19. Can anyone confirm?
Some questions for local authorities and politicians
I've been following the AMP story from afar; it is getting lots of national attention. I hope you don't mind me suggesting a few questions that might be posed by area residents to law enforcement, political leaders and even to the local media:
1. If this was really a human trafficking issue, why did law enforcement wait 8 months to take action to prevent the workers from being trafficked.
2. How do we know that this was not consensual sex between adults? You postulated that some of the women were trafficked because they appeared to be living in the spa. Does this mean that any time we go to a restaurant (or buy a product on line or go to nearly any business for that matter) that the customer needs to talk to each employee to make sure that are "consensual" employees and that they are not living in their place of employment and being coerced to work.
3. Do you have any evidence that busting male customers (and publishing photos of men who are "presumed innocent until proven guilty") is going to have any impact on the demand for sexual services? It seems to be programmed into our DNA, no matter how much religious zealots want to suppress sexuality.
4. Have our restrictive laws on prostitution contributed to the problem by creating an underground and illegal industry that provides little if any protection for workers? Note the analogy to prohibition, which created a thriving market for illegal and dangerous alcohol products.
And.
5) Prostitution has been around through all of recorded history, why not consider a new approach, maybe remove the economic incentive for human trafficking (this is the problem, not sex between consenting adults) by legalizing prostitution so that it can be safe and regulated in much the same way that worker rights and safety is covered in other above-board professions.
