Tough part are those others who mug shots are now plastered worldwide from Tmz to USAtoday to every morning show in the country.
Stay safe.[/QUOTE]Charged with criminal tools also I guess their phones?
[QUOTE=RickMann;5105337]Charged with criminal tools also I guess their phones?[/QUOTE]Yes, I assume the criminal tools are the cell phones. That charge is a higher level misdemeanor than the solicitation charge plus LE can seize the phone as evidence. After the case is adjudicated, you might get the judge to order it returned to you. I wonder how many of those guys arrested were using real burner phones.

[QUOTE=RickMann;5105337]Charged with criminal tools also I guess their phones?[/QUOTE]Not sure if it's the case here, but I've heard from SW advocates that having condoms on you can carry that charge as well. I see a few articles about it in Pitt, but don't know if it's made it's way here or not.

One more reason why I don't use condoms.
As far as phones, I use an app called textplus. Probably not as private as a separate burner phone.

As you can use it to pay for services.
It's a charge they try to add-on so at least one sticks or you'll plead down.
With the pandemic, I've severely limited my business travels and I've spent most of my time at my place in Florida. I look forward to spending more time in Ohio again this spring.
I just read a report that you might be interested in reading. The fraudulent and unconstitutional actions in Jupiter, Florida sent shock waves over the entire country and terrified massage parlor owners everywhere. Every time a massage parlor is raided, we hear untruthful claims by law enforcement about a bold fight against Human Trafficking. It's rare that an AMP owner is able to fight back because not many people have the recourses to properly defend themselves against local prosecutors that have higher political goals.
I have never experienced Human Trafficking at an AMP in this country. That's not to say that it has never happened but the narrative used after a raid is bullshit. The truth is that most raids are the result of neighborhood complaints and local officials respond by closing the business. There is not any real investigation, but the media sure paints a saintly picture of our crusaders.
Enough bloviating. Here's the link that set me off. [URL]https://reason.com/2020/12/02/florida-masseuse-ordered-to-pay-31573-after-soliciting-robert-kraft-to-commit-prostitution/[/URL].
What's going on with the police Sargeant who was caught with a hooker in confluence park with a (clothed) hooker, then caught again in Wicklow park a couple hours later with a different hooker, under the same circumstances? Does he still have a job?.

[QUOTE]Arresting the people who are the victims of human trafficking sounds harsh, but the complicated reality is that this often is the best way that law enforcement can help, Yost said. The bonds of human trafficking are often chemical chains of addiction and a hopelessness that there is no other way. This gives the survivors a chance to reset with services that are available.[/QUOTE]Couldn't they provide all those resources without handing out an arrest record? I mean if some of these women were actual victims of human trafficking, and sex workers of their own volition, then odds are they were forced into the life. How is an arrest record and being put into the system supposed to help these ladies? I mean I know the cops and the city just tack on the term "human trafficking victim" for optics, but it Just adds insult to injury if you ask me.

The city council in Columbus announced it's going after clients rather than providers. This follows the deputy chief (female) advocating last year for higher fines for patrons. Watch your backs gentlemen.

Guys, we've heard this before. It's not the drug traffickers fault. It's not the pimp's fault. It's not the hookers' fault. It's the John's fault. And now the cops are going after them!
They make the same BS threats for years. But let's assume they actually do this. This will actually cause a spike in prostitution and other unintended consequences.
