FYI - saw this on another board...

It's the same agency the FBI busted earkier this year. All the more reason not to use an agency.

The link was good yesterday and when I went back to the other board the same link NOW doesn't exist - can't even search it on the webpage. Is it possible something is brewing about this? Makes me wonder who is monitoring the board.

Here is another link with various topics on the matter. I believe the agency is called HushHush and the Madam of this high dollar agency is allegedly cooperating with law enforcement to identify clients. I believe a Dr. from Raleigh already pleaded guilty. I check this link several times and appear to be working. If this doesn't work, I surrender! Just Goggle it, I believe you'll get something.

You can find the story if you go to the Charlotte Observer on the web, then do a search for "escorts".

I found this story very disturbing.  The police and newspaper publicly outed the poor john who got caught.  Apparently there may be federal charges pending because the guy solicited one of the girls at the agency to meet him in Vegas, which  crossed state lines, thereby getting the feds involved.  The really unbelievable part is ... no one was hurt by anything the guy did.  To look at it business-wise, it was a transaction between 2 consenting adults.  Now the guy's reputation, career, and family are irreparably harmed and he's facing significant jail time and fines.  The whole situation is insane, really.

BTW, avoiding agencies is no panacea.  I read on The Smoking Gun a couple of weeks back that the husband of a female legislator  was busted by the cops after visiting a girl that posted on CL... can't remember the state where this took place.  The cops had been monitoring the place for some time.  Thus, no one is really safe in the hobby and you could get busted at any time.
