eros & arrests

[ts-lover.com]

Well,

Obviously you have some cities that are gonna be like Mayberry, to where Andy isn't gonna stand for hookers on his turf.

Then you have cities like San Fran....no.....take that back cause no city is like S.F., considering they are seriously getting ready to vote on legalized prostitution......but you get the idea.

We've been down this path before, many times.

Most if not all large urban and even middle sized to small vice squads and or plain LE are very much aware of all manner and sorts of indoor prossing advertisements. CL, Eros,Exotics, private home page/website, newspapers, and so forth, it doesn't matter. Specific dedicated rooms are set up with computers, telephones, latest editions of papers and or magazines that feature prossing adverts, and LE works the telephones.

How or when a pross will get busted depends upon several factors, and while it may seem that certain advertiser venues attract more LE activity (Village Voice and Craigslist), it also could be because advertisers in such places are so blatant and or not careful enough to make LE's work so easy it is like shooting fish in a barrel.

Unlike streetwalking, which can be observed easily, indoor prossing requires more investigative work on the part of LE. Depending upon the location, setting up a sting operation requires lots of man hours and is not always successful.

Have known girls who advertised on Eros and got busted, known girls who advertised in the Village Voice and got busted, known girls who didn't advertise at all and got busted. Also know girls who advertise in several places and never got busted (yet). It is not so much where one advertises but how one handles one's business that really determines if one is going to met up with the Po-Po.

Eros.com knows fully well what it's advertisers are up to, hence the long and rather invasive model release and request for photo ID. Eros.com also make it very clear if they are served with legal papers to turn over any information about an account, not only will they comply, but will charge the advertiser a fee for doing so.

Just as an online advertisement for prossing serves to attract customers, it also informs LE. Despite what ad copy says,including those silly disclaimers about fees being only "for my time and nothing else.....", LE knows Hoes, hoe activity and hoe tendencies (to quote Ludacris). Again referring to the "phone and computer room", a simple phone call or email to an "advertiser" will reveal if not the truth, enough to establish doubt that the activities are legal. That is enough to keep LE interested, and the rest is simply a matter of time.

Craigslist and other free sites are getting so much LE interest and busts at the moment, mainly (IMHO) because so many amateur and or just plain dumb hoes advertise there and do everything to make LE's job so easy.

What many don't understand, is despite it being called "escorting" and considered a way of earning a living by many, to LE and everyone else it is criminal activity, and LE has vast powers (more so since 9/11/01) to monitor and track anyone suspected of engaging in criminal activity.

While I agree in general with what Shining Star wrote, it's not entirely true. There are some locales that have specifically targeted CL recently. One of the reasons is both the publicity and it being seen as a very fast growing "threat".

[Shining Star]

You basically have two sorts of prossies on CL: total newbies and or low level street walkers looking for a cheap way to advertise on the Internet, and pros tired of or no longer wish to pay Eros.com and other sites, and or perhaps looking to supplement their paid advertising. The later is true for some prossies that cannot pay for their Eros.com advert on time and must allow it to lapse even for a weekend. At least the CL advert could bring in some money.

Could also be that unlike Eros and Exotics CL is basically in almost every US city and or area.

Will grant you CL prossie arrests seem to get more media attention, but then again LE often does not release information on how they located other prossies who have been arrested. Well they might say, "in response to complaints by other area residents", or something like that.

In all honesty since many girls advertise in multiple places, and or work streets and parties, it may be hard to say just how the Po-Po found them. Often LE will often say when calling "I saw your ad....", not mentioning which advert, and not all prossies track clients via adverts.

As for CL and escorts who advertise their being a threat, again it is not likely even if CL were to go away or at least stop taking certian types of posts, indoor prossing is going to go away. Maybe workers without means and ID to advertise on Eros or other major sites would be put off, but most would probably go back to where ever they were finding dates before CL.

Eros.com also make it very clear if they are served with legal papers to turn over any information about an account, not only will they comply, but will charge the advertiser a fee for doing so.

I remember reading in another forum that eros servers are located out of the USA and not subject to US court orders. Do you know of cases where eros has actually responded to a request from LE and charged the advertiser?
