Prostitution Sting

Y'know, they run prostitution stings in my county every so often - 33 caught this time. How do the police catch so many? They bait the field.

I've driven down Jeff Davis Highway (the local red light district) and seen the women whom I assume are walking the street for this particular reason - they ain't beautiful. All of the sudden a good looking women who appears healthy appears on the street. C'mon guys, you gotta know that's a trap.

Well, at least they didn't publish the names and photos of everyone they nabbed, unlike the Chicago Police Department, which is trying to humiliate people into not hiring prostitutes.

Also, since you're giving advice, a genuine prostitute would be willing to get into your car and let you drive away with her before discussing business. I don't think the police are willing to take that kind of risk with their officers.

The link is lost to me, but I recall reading a story about a jury pool that inclded a guy who was busted for soliciting a prostitute who turned out to be an undercover cop. When asked about the arrest, he said something to the effect of "I should have known something was up - she still had all her teeth."
