92 people arrested in prostitution investigation

Undercover detectives spent four days investigating online e-commerce prostitution websites leading to 92 arrests, officials said.

Between Wednesday, May 8 and Saturday, May 11 the Polk County Sheriff's Office arrested men and women who were advertising to commit prostitution or soliciting others for prostitution, PCSO Spokeswoman Carrie Eleazer said.

"The nexus between prostitution and other crime, such as illegal drugs, violence against women, and human trafficking is a real problem," Sheriff Grady Judd said. "Whether it is on the street or online, prostitution is illegal and we will continue to investigate and arrest those involved."

Of the 92 suspects arrested, 12 were "pimps," which means they were arrested for bring prostitutes to the undercover location, 39 were prostitutes and 39 were "johns," which means they were arrested for wanting to pay for sex with a prostitute and two were arrested on other charges after coming with a suspect to the location, the PCSO said.

1. "One was on his honeymoon."

Sorry, pal, if you wanted one more tryst, it should've been last weekend.

Stay classy!

7. Or had a gift certificate from his bachelor party

that was going to expire. Everyone hates to waste a gift certificate.

13. If you even have time to look for a prostitute on your honeymoon....

I'm guessing your marriage probably isn't going to work out.

14. New wife might have been interested in a threesome.

It happens.

3. Pimps are a lower form of life than cockroaches nt

5. I predict that the 39 johns will be released with a stern warning

The pimps will be charged with misdemeanors and fined $25 or so, and the prostitutes will be jailed for 120 days.

Because that's how we roll in this enlightened society of ours.

6. Yep, slap on the wrist for the exploiters and punish the exploited nt

[Bay Boy]

8. Isn't it the johns who are being exploited?

...if women would just put out more the guys wouldn't have to go pay for it.

9. Is that serious or sarcasm? nt

[Bay Boy]

11. Sarcasm...

...sorry if it wasn't obvious. But you can go all off on me if you would like as if I meant it.

[geek tragedy]

12. No, quite all right.

Sadly, there are some who think just like your sarcasm.

10. Phew. I think we can all sleep a little more soundly tonight.

I just hate the thought of one adult paying another adult for sex.

15. I watched a Lisa Ling special on OWN about underage prostitution in DC

and one of the things they mention is how the prostitutes get more time in jail than anyone else. There are programs in place to get these young women out but it's difficult for them to get funding. No one really seems to give a shit that girls as young as 11 are forced into the sex trade.
