As usual Thunder, you have no clue of the facts, but yet you make very broad and uneducated accusations. However, if any lives were destroyed it was at the hands of the men who chose to engage in prostitution knowing full well if it was discovered it would have dire consequences.
Again, you don't know what you are talking about. When referencing my cases (as in the people I catch on camera) - they are actually arrested for public lewdness not prostitution. So, yes, they could very well be going to jail for 'having free sex.' Rarely is there any evidence of payment.
Fortunately (for me), the statute covering public acts of lewdness and prostitution are one-in-the-same. There are dozens of examples of people in OKC being arrested for having 'free sex' but the charge is still 'engaging in prostitution/lewdness.'
I have a friend who got caught by a jerk cop being sexual with a woman he's known for a long time inside his car outside a local bar. The cop arrested him for public lewdness inside the car - but the blotter and charge still read lewdness/prostitution. Same for a longtime couple caught being sexual inside a car in the Penn Square Mall parking garage.
Another way to look at it Thunder:
Masturbate in your bedroom - no big deal.
Masturbate on the sidewalk at Northwest Expressway and May Ave. - go to jail.
To use your own words - "The end result is the same": masturbation. Do it in public - go to jail.
Like many other crimes.... if nobody sees you then you probably get away with it.
unless some nut job is following you around with a camera and opens up your door.
Disclaimer: Not saying any one here falls under that classification.
Good thing my boyfriend and I didn't get caught on the bench by the lighthouse at Lake Hefner on Valentine night.
Still, Brian, what the deal with online sites? Police and you are cracking down on people there... That is such a shame, really. And something about you working with police to bust an event that was being held inside a building.... Explain.
I'm sure I just threw up a little bit at that visual image.
The beauty is I don't feel a desire to explain anything. Especially to someone who rarely 'gets it' and turns any explanation into something else. Perfect example - you said I worked with police to bust an event and wanted an explanation. Nowhere did I ever say I worked with police to bust the ASPD event. Police were not even involved. I was contacted by a cable show (Justice Files I think - or something like that years ago). They were doing a story on organized upscale prostitution and the affluent men who participate. I used my verified access and fake profile to gain the location of the event. The cable show simply taped the attendees arriving, we ran their tag numbers, interviewed a few who left early (as they went back to their cars) and then they showed up at the party trying to interview people as men and women ran in different directions. Not really my thing to break up as it appeared to be private and consensual but that was what I was contracted to do.
I've been working with CNBC on a special airing soon also on street and high end prostitution covering both OKC and Tulsa. Another feature I just finished working with a crew on was locating an operational brothel in the city and working to help them get an interview with the owner and workers.
The last email account and profile I faked and was asked to give over to police was because it became apparent a man was looking to abuse young children.
You know what I mean.
Its okay to observe to make sure no one is forced, no human trafficking, and underage kids, but it is not okay to harass full grown adults when they are consenting to sex with another full grown adults. Taking their tag numbers is a bit too far and interviewing them as if they were guilty is just sad.
Contracted or not, you shouldn't morally get yourself involved with reality shows or whatever cable network they are on the hunt ruining people's lives.
Actually, "morally" THEY shouldn't be involved in organized criminal activity they know will have dire consequences when it is eventually exposed. Plus, I've gotta tell ya, you're the last person I'd take advice from on how one should live their life or conduct business.
... Just because government says paying for sex is criminal doesn't mean it is... Sex is sex. Why should the people go to jail for spending hard-earned money on sex? :-/
Hmmmm, actually, if the government says something is illegal and there are specific laws against it then YES it is illegal. But, of course I've also read your posts where you don't think you need to pay income tax on your Internet and other sales. Be sure and tell the government your opinion on those laws too.

Midwest City - Two women [ages 36 and 61] accused of propositioning undercover Midwest City police officers at massage parlors were arrested Wednesday.
Reminded me of an article I recently posted to my site about a woman arrested for prostitution in a massage parlor in Norman (lived in Del City).... http://johntv.com/?p=1045
There have been a lot of these asian massage joints poping up lately especially on n may ave.
Maybe my recall is faulty, but it seems like two different places near Adams were hit in the recent past. I think in addition to the Norman pro gone KY raid, another parlor up the street just a bit, next to a convenience store, also got tagged on prostitution and drugs.
I guess some people believe that sex is a priceless act of affection toward someone thought of as special and so it shouldn't come with an actual price demanded for it. Of course, doing that is no problem, if one is blessed with enough sex appeal in finding someone to share that priceless act with.
