This seems like a violation of privacy rights. Prostitution stings are misguided to begin with, in that they are targeting lonely people whose lives aren't great already and putting them in prison. I don't quite understand why they go after the men seeking sex instead of the women selling their bodies. Is it all that much harder to find them and prove it? I don't believe this practice does all that much to fix the situation and stop prostitution. It's really a wasted effort in my opinion.

Great use of police resources. Forget going after real criminals.

It's funny how liberal/progressive the US is with respect to gay marriage and yet prostitution is still illegal. The US have it both ways.

Leaving aside how fucking immoral prostitution stings are... Isn't announcing this shit before the fact just going to make their sting less likely to actually catch anyone?

I've represented hookers and johns in an American city. Escorts almost never get arrested. Street prostitution is a nuisance, it attracts addicts and thieves. Women get harassed on the street. Used condoms are left on the street for kids to play with as balloons, along with needles.

There is a rational reason to prosecute street prostitutes and johns. Hookers were usually treated leniently, first offenses were dismissed. If the arrests continued, probation and any incarceration was addressed to the drug problems of 99% of street girls.

I brought a motion to stop police publicity of the arrest of an accused john I represented once upon a time. Can't remember the legal basis, it was some privacy or equal protection issue I think.

Part of the argument was they weren't taking the same measures for serious felons like robbers and stabbers.

It's actually MUCH easier to arrest the prostitutes than the Johns. The emphasis on john arrests is purely a neo-feminist invention.

Give me a break. Cops are the new attention whores with this twitter shit. And prostitution is everywhere legal or not. They just call themselves escorts. Women are free agents in the sexual marketplace. Some work by the hour. Some work as salary employees(wives). And some are under contract with temporary work visas(girlfriends) [Image: lol.gif]

We need to just get off this moral high horse we're on and get over ourselves.

Police using social media...so then let's get some live feeds of dash cams up on facebook.

Maybe not the top-tier detectives, but a low level street guy doing a beat. Transparency, right?
