I was surprised to see in my local paper last week that the police had raided a house in my town and arrested two people with regard to sexual stuff. Thought that didn't happen much anymore.
The arrested male and female had Chinese names and the report said that there was a naked younger female in a bedroom and a naked man in the bed, presumably a client who must have been shocked. It sounds like the client and prossy haven't been charged, as I don't think they have committed any crime, but the Chinese couple are due to go to Derby Crown Court as the local magistrates can't deal with it. It sounds pretty serious. There doesn't however seem to be any mention of coercion or trafficking, but I assume this could be the reason. Also as there appeared to be only one woman working on the premises it wasn't really a brothel, unless the older woman facing charges was also on the game.
For the record it was on a house in a relatively respectable suburban area about a mile or so from where I live. Indeed I have walked past regularly and had no idea. Once upon a time I would have known all about it.
Indeed the last prossy I saw in my home town a few years ago was also Chinese, and I wonder if this could be the same outfit as again there was a man and a woman involved and a younger girl who couldn't speak English, although this was a few years ago in a totally different location.
I wonder how the police knew about it. Maybe the neighbours complained. There is also a primary school at the end of the road. Apparently the client had got the contact from a magazine rather than AW, but I expect they were also on AW or Vivastreet. It is also necessary to bear in mind that the local rag often makes mistakes and reports bollocks and therefore can't always be trusted.
The town have always been quite keen on stamping out any odd flickers of prostitution we have had. Most famously at the beginning of the 90's in my early days of punting an agency I used several times was closed down and the couple running it prosecuted. Even then the local rag as far as I was aware got it wrong with lurid font page headlines about a brothel on the premises and men coming and going at all hours, when in my experience it was an outcall service only.
I was interviewed by the police myself as a witness. I didn't know at the time that you didn't have to co-operate if you didn't want to and they of course were careful not to make this clear. The copper interviewing me actually said he thought it was a waste of time and they had more important things to do, but the council had pressurised his bosses to take action.
Many year later a local knocking shop was unsurprisingly closed after a firearm was discovered on the premises.
When I first started punting there were quite a few sp's in my town, but for the past 20 years or so they have been extremely rare.
Unless you want middle aged fatties!
