If you get robbed at gunpoint by the friends of a provider that you have been seeing for close to two years, are you going to get hemmed up legally if you report the robbery to law enforcement?  Is law enforcement in turn going to seek legal action against you as the hobbyist?  I got robbed at gunpoint last night by some guys a relative of the provider knows.  I am just exploring my options, whether to pursue legal action, or leave it alone in case I get hemmed up in the process.  Thank you for your advice.

In general a Fellony robery charge should trump a Misdemeanor charge...  but a lot depends on your local Police.  Some will view this as the dangerous incident that it is.  Others will think you had it coming.  

Do you think the provider was in on this?  How is it you know her realitives?  These activities should be encapsulated...  She should not know too much about you nor you her.  She should be told that this occured & you'll not be seeing her again & why.  A lady works hard to establish her reputation as an honest provider...  if her clients get robbed because of her, this destroys the reputation she has worked so hard for.  
Where did this robbery occur?  At her location?  on the street?  your home?  a hotel?
Frankly, this is one reason for prefering incalls at a hotel.    
I'm sorry this happened to you.

because they know the seriousness of collaring an armed robber before someone gets killed.

In any case, the solicitation charge is not even the biggest threat facing the client in this case; it is the exposure to your wife, friends, co-workers, etc. once the incident hits the news. (Which it will, believe me.)

For that reason alone, I would not hold it against anyone if they did not report it, but they should report it on their local board lest other unsuspecting clients similarly get ripped off.

(still not a lawyer)

Yes, there is risk of reporting a robbery...  a provider was robbed by a client here...  and her name & day job publicisized.  Her professional license put in jepardoy.  Embarssed in front of her family & friends.

Also an exception to the need for LE to witness a misdemeanor is if YOU confess to it.  In some backward jurisdictions, the complainant is a bird in the hand...

Without fail write a factual reveiw to protect the rest of us!!  Then:

1.  Do nothing official.  You aren't getting your funds/watch/whatever back anyway.  Chalk it up to experience and walk away.
2.  File a less than complete report to support an insurance claim - risking an (unlikely) misdemeanor charge for filing a false report.  While they might not believe your story of being someplace for a legitimate reason, unless you so state otherwise, they can't PROVE your story to be false.  Not really a recommended course of action
3.  File a complete and honest report.  Unless you live in East Podunk or unless  you are personally prominent, this level of crime isn't going to make a ripple in the local news.  Ask the officer taking the report to assure you that you are not waiving your protection from self-incrimination by making the report.  Like as not they would rather know about the thugs than try and use your own statement to prosecute you for a misdemeanor.  
Just my very amateur opinion

if you were robbed, you were robbed, you need say no more than that you were in the area (if asked why, just say visiting someone).  Unless the provider was in on it, she is not going to volunteer info.  The only reason not to report it is if the location is in an area you'd have a hard time explaining.

Have a buddy make another appointment with the provider thief.
Make sure she regrets ever robbing her clients...

...and it sure sounds good.  But you could easily parlay a lost wallet and watch into a misdemeanor for battery or even a felony.  If things get out of hand, someone ends up dead and if you are the one left alive, you could go away for a very long time or even potentially take the long sleep.  
Its not worth it.  Negative review the living snot out of her and let it go.

that her client was robbed but her family member's friends.  Is her family member also her booker, pimp, etc?  Why does this person know who you are?  How do you know the robbers were friends of the family member?  You should not have conttact with anyone besides the provider.

NO, you sure do not want to evolve this into a felony for you, OJ!

I would let her know you were robbed & by whom.  And then block her number & e-mail.  YES, being set up for an armed robbery at gunpoint, is reason for a review!

... the cops are not stupid, they are going to KNOW why you were there and when they find you telling them lies, they are going to either push the issue, or just throw the complaint away.  
Ok sure, 'I was visiting a friend' will work all the way to 'We need your friend's name and address.'  When you won't answer or give them some BS, they are going to get a bit ugly.

 Either be ready to man-up and tell them the whole story (you can dance around the specifics of 'paying for sex'- 'I had an appointment to see a lady and I'm not getting into the details' might work) or forget it and go on with your life.  Either way, you are not getting your money etc back.

That would be an entirely differant scenerio.  In that case the provider would have been complicit in the robbery.
