Underage sting

[david01]

That looks like the airport Crowne Plaza to me.

Glad to see they're going after the men who prey on the underage.
It says tomorrow's story is going after the traffickers

If you knowingly choose to meet an underage girl for sex, you deserve to go to jail. Mind you, I did get picked up by an underage girl in a bar when I was 20, but that's not exactly the same thing.

These guys are lucky they're not getting popped in the US.
They'd be looking at a lot more time then 6 months in jail

I cannot believe how stupid these guys are.. as if a real underaged hooker would tell them she is under aged. OMG!!! For them to still pursue it is ... well I have no words.

Yes that is the Crowne Plaza. I don't have any sympathy for a guy who still goes after a girl/cop confirms they are underage. You won't get caught and charged if you just say no thanks to underage and move on. Also good thing to note is that not everyone talking all "hey hun, hey babe sure babe" like is actually a girl. I prefer to be a little more professional in my correspondence.

I think you said it all. Its good that the cops are going after the guys who are trying to purchase services from girls who are underage. That is not right at all , they have to know that they could be potentially walking into a police sting? Unless they are just that naiive and are hoping to get their "fix" .

It's sad what the cop said about the supply and demand dynamic, that if it wasn't for the demand, there wouldn't be a need on the supply end. Kudos to them for going at this problem from both sides of the issue.

I agree they need to stop the hunt for underage but don't be surprised if these stings slowly cross over into consenting adults if a new right wing government were to win in the next election. I don't believe there are many underage escorts providing services in North America as media likes to portray.

I don't even get how the police bring this up. "Yeah, so, I'm 17, is that okay with you?" I mean, I find these people deplorable, but who would be stupid enough to say yes to that question?
Regardless, anyone who knowingly purchases sex from underage victims deserves a lot of jail time. The whole point is that legit prostitution is supposed to be between two consenting adults. A minor can't consent.

They should have just kept the sting going all year around rather than report it, there is always more out there and this tactic won't be as effective anymore.

apparently there's lots. I spoke to YRP vice squad detective and he said they could bust someone every day just from BP ads

You won't get caught and charged if you just say no thanks to underage and move on.

This is quite an assumption. Is it backed up by any evidence or stats? Hopefully you are right, but these types of stings are a real good reason to stick with reputable agencies like Mirage, Jersey Girls, and Toronto Girlfriends, etc., and just avoid Backpage and Indy's altogether.

Obviously, men who want to purchase underage minors for sex deserve to be arrested. But I suspect the police are happy to also charge men who seek the services of 18+ as well. As long as they meet their quota, just like speeding tickets.

Ya I wouldn't be surprised if they do a sting going after men looking for over 18 women.

Just do the same setup as they did. Put up a backpage ad and just sit and wait, while the guys come falling into the trap. It's very easy work, which the police love. Actually going after gangs that are trafficking women is hard work and possibly dangerous, we wouldn't want our police getting involved with that.

It's easy to sell to the public as well..."Human Trafficking!", ""contributing funds to gangs!"

LE has been going after human trafficking for years, all along the 401 corridor. In talking with LE friends and some working girls, LE has visited many an independent by booking an appointment, without her knowledge that they were LE. A couple of officers would then visit with her and ask her set questions, wanting to know if she's doing this willingly and if anyone is running her. They don't care if a lady is doing so willingly, they care about the ones that are being run by some scumbag. Most girls are too scared to rat their pimp out though, but at least LE get some intel to track these assholes through their girls.

So you assumption that it's too dangerous and too much work for them is ludicrous, as they have been doing this for years. You also need to catch the news, because they have busted many of these assholes who traffic girls over the past number of years,
