In today’s craigslist hooker news

by Trench on July 26th, 2007

Sheriff: 250 Prostitutes Busted, Most Found Clients Online:
Cook County, Illinois Sheriff’s have netted an impressive 250 prostitutes in a sting. A chunk of them advertised on craigslist. And some words of wisdom from the Sheriff himself.

Sheriff Tom Dart says you can go to the site at any given time and find hundreds of ads for what often are euphemistically referred to as erotic services.

Why not working on getting craigslist to remove the ads? Dart says the site doesn’t have a strong screening mechanism. In his words, “We wish that they did. We’re going to strongly suggest (it) to them but I’m not holding my breath.”

In the meantime, says Dart, his office will continue cracking down and carrying out more undercover operations for what he says is hardly a victimless crime.

Prostitution, he says, degrades the communities where it’s practiced.

Amen brother.
