The case referenced involved 3 cases dismissed against female suspects at massage parlors where undercover Minneapolis police officers had improper sexual contact.  

The notoriety this story will get will no doubt put more pressure on the police to enforce the new massage licensure rules

I do not believe the article for one split second that they are waiting on investigations at all.  I do believe that trigger got pulled not long ago and it is by no means being put on any pause whatsoever.  There is paranoia and then there is healthy paranoia and then there are OKAY's and then there are those who have been WHITELISTED.

If you know a provider that is well established and is not "transitional" and you've been enjoying this hobby for a while, do ask for a whitelist!  That is a protection that actually means something for us all.  

Since September of 2014 I've been mainly seeing repeat clients and now it has paired down to repeat, those with healthy whtielists, those who are direct referrals from other awesome and trusted providers, or those withe most awesome healthy list of OKAY's from P411.  Anything less for me feels too cavalier moving forward as I only see very few people in a week now.  

In New York City that community thrives and lives by WHITELISTS or the equivalant.  Take a look!!!!  Puruse over there and see for yourself!  NY city reviewers have how many WHITELISTS?   A ton!  

It is my opinion that this is one good habit to pick up here starting yesterday.  Those of you here in MN with a healthy WHITELIST already.... isn't it just soooooooooooooooo  nice!!!!!!!    Aaaaaahhhh.  And those of you on P411 with a healthy OKAY list....   isn't it just soooooooooooooo nice!!!!!!!   Aaaaaah.   I tell you, nothing for me is so sexy as a healthy WHITELIST &/OR OKAY list behind your name!    

 
And if there is a Judas amongst us... well.... Talon, you know a Judas, don't you!?  You've seen the raids.  Cheap places and Agencies are easier targets.... who wants to be on their list when there is a bust?  

I'd not take anything for granted at all today.  Super Bowl might be three years away but Hennepin county is going to clean up the easy targets and then the targets that motivate them to chase the target down... it's already started some weeks ago and they're not busting only, their doing their research.  

See clients and see providers that give a real darn about their privacy & safety.  Think about it.  

If we all give a shit... we'd all start asking for whitelists and only give it to established clients, not newbies that might be undercover.  

Anyone whose seen me can get a white list.  Just email me.  Tell me when you saw me.  I will look it up and do it.     And start asking the same of those you've seen that can easily take care of that for you!

Have your TER ID and use your email you use with TER.....  don't allow anyone who is LE pretend to be someone else's TER ID... the email has to HAS TO has to match!!!!!!!     NEVER GIVE A WHITELIST if the email does not match.  Make sure it matches the emails you've had with that client in the past.  Those who only do phone numbers.... IDK how that would work.  Get an email folks and preferably with Hushmail and not yahoo, gmail, hotmail that all hand over records with no red tape in a heartbeat.  Hushmail is Canadian and not as likely to hand it over.... or some other out of country email service.  

Oh, and finally, anyone using their real name on their email in any way... get rid of THAT!!!!!
