Need to get your stories straight. None of the girls were arrested. Because they were thought to be "trafficked," they were seen as the victims even though none of them went to seek asylum or aid. They had all their stuff confiscated, including cash.
League members eventually gave as much info as possible for lighter sentences. These fuckers were so open about it. They would have League meetups at a public restaurant and talk about which girls they fucked, how they did it, etc. The more we read about it, the more pathetic it got. And the irony of it all was the League was setup to keep the kgirls safe. One of the "rules" to be in the League was that you had to keep it covered during FS for the girls' safety. Hypocritical thing about it was that Woodstock (the ringleader) BEGGED for BBFS and even used the "I'm very popular on my board... if you give me BBFS, I'll give you a great review." One girl (a VERY popular kgirl that is now in LA) actually lived with him and was his "girlfriend." Undercover cops who eventually infiltrated the League said that they were so brazen about it that customers at other tables would ask to move somewhere else. Nobody was charged with trafficking, just promotion.
Because guys are so desperate for Asians, it's sooo easy for LE to bust these guys. The Bellevue bust from a few weeks ago is the perfect example. I've said this in Seattle's regional board, but it's safer, and much cheaper, to go to Vancouver, BC. A 2 hour in Vancouver is the equivalent of seeing a kgirl in Seattle.
As for the price difference, it's the absolute definition of supply and demand. I'm sure Cia and her friend are only going to be there for a short time. Super easy for them to make quick cash. Seattle already has a notorious reputation because of stupid-ass and rude clients... especially the Chinese and Indians. And considering that Bellevue is turning into Little China and Little India it makes it worse. No girls are going to come up here long term. If a kgirl in NYC, LA, or SF is having a slump, all she needs to do is go to Seattle for like 3-4 days, see a few guys each day, and she'll easily be back in the + side and with a lot of extra pocket change.
Oh, and the LAST person that would ever want to go back to Seattle is Megan lol. If you only knew half the stories she's told me...
I kinda like that Cia is here in Seattle for a bit. I can't get down to socal as often as I like so seeing some gals head this way is great for me, the guy with little time that can splurge when I am back.
The gap between now and then sucked, full of rip offs and fakers that had me ignoring almost all ads up here.
Sure the price is more but it is closer to market based up here so I don't expect other market pricing.
Good for them if they can get up here and make good fore getting out again.
