The news the last few days tells the story.  Escort agency girl, name withheld goes on a date and gets assaulted by strangulation and dies a few days later in the hospital.  The guy turns himself in.  The details are somewhat vague, but I suspect the guy had to identify himself to the agency so everybody knew who he was.

The client passed the agency's screening, but it wasn't enough to disqualify him from meeting and killing the provider.

You might be right but, at this point, I would not jump to any conclusions.  It might have been her boyfriend, or ex; based on the age and pic of the perpetrator more info is needed.  

I do not believe agencies screen for safety, I think they just 'screen' to confirm the person's identity in case there are any payment issues. When I worked at a legal brothel in Nevada the only 'screening' that was done was the checking of IDs to confirm you were 21, that was it.  
This was very tragic and I have been following the story. I am hopeful that a all of the details do come forward so providers are able to take additional measures if necessary for our safety, and well, our lives.

I've dealt with agencies in the past and, like everything else, some do and some don't. Not to say they ALL screen for safety either. I often used agencies in the NY area as fallbacks, though I preferred independent girls. What I think is true in all cases is that agencies and Indies are primarily concerned that you're not a cop. But they also all ask for references from established providers, which are a pretty good gauge as to whether you're a safety risk.

legal brothels in rural counties in Nevada are a distinctive niche, and do not emulate the screening that other agencies use.  There are hundreds of guys every year who cannot get approved at agencies because they don't have refs.  The only time I have used an ID was in Las Vegas when I ordered an agency outcall to my hotel.  I redacted everything on my DL except the city I live in, my first name, and my birthdate.  That, combined with my solid references were all that was needed.  The booker even told me that having even a redacted California driver's license was enough because it shows I was not local law enforcement, which as you say, is their overriding concern.  

Guy probably thought for 200 he was going to have the time of his life and then …. Honestly, it’s not the first time I’ve heard where guys loose their shit over this.  
But it’s still sad news.

I am sure her identity will be revealed after the investigation. My heart goes out to her family. The only time I ever had to fight for my life was during an agency booking. The booker did not screen for my safety & it’s an occupational hazard. I heard this agency did check his real life information, but that’s not how I screen for safety. I think there are bad people in this World 🌎 & it’s always good to be safe. When I walk any streets I keep my head on a swivel. I’m not referring to street walking just in general street smarts.  

to this story that is NOT pure speculation or self-aggrandizement?

Why do you think the suspect and/or the victim was a TER user?

NOT to shit where she eats.  I searched the Review-Journal website and there were no articles that mention TER or The Erotic Review.  Don't know why she would speculate like that other than stupidity.    

You may be very correct about agencies screening for police because what they are doing is technically considered "pimping". Independents no, unless we are talking about gals that have a laundry list of warrants, of course.  I have clients that are police and I also have no warrants or an arrest record, so not a concern I have or any other gals that are reputable.  All of the stings are going after clients now, not providers, so what a gent does for employment is of no concern of mine.

Same here. All I've seen is that her name was known to the reporter as a sex worker, and that she worked for an agency. Never seen TER or other site mentioned by the tv stations or the RJ. Apparently the Coroner will release the name once next of kin have been notified.

You've heard of other guys "losing their shit" to the point of committing homicide?
And is that meant to suggest a motive or a justification?
If the former, do you really think someone who isn't already bent on ultimate violence would suddenly do so over an upsell?
And if the latter . . . well, no questions I can ask there that would help.

...the DEAD woman?  I'm guessing he screened just fine...just like the dude that killed multiple gals out east before he was caught.

Is it stupidity that keeps me here? I’m glad I ignore you people who add no value here. I did post the news link 2 days ago & it was removed. I thought it was really hobby info., so it was baffling when it was removed. This is the reason I was given. ..

They released her name this afternoon. It’s on the CBS Las Vegas website. Looks like she worked for a Latina Spa on Sahara and escorted on the Neurotic Donkey on her own.  
.
Per the CBS Las Vegas article Happy was right. She tried to upsell the guy for more than the $2,000 he had already paid her and he snapped, punched her, and choked her for 10 minutes. He has confessed to everything per the TV station article.  
.
A very sad story. A young lady is gone, and the guy is facing life in prison.

I DM'd on that to see if you knew anything else. I think your thread was pulled because the article named the detective and had given out his email.
Now they have the guys name and picture on the latest news. Interesting fellow

I read an article that named her. She had no alcohol or drugs in her system. It mentioned her stage names as well. She was mother of 2. No mention of TER so far. No mention of what agency that I can find.  

example of why screening is so vital to their safety.  My take, in both cases if screening was used it appeared to be useless as tits on a boar.  Hate to be cryptic but harm still came for them.  My point is that the wolf doesn't leave a trail...

I read every single post in this thread....every one.    It simply boils down to this painful obvious CLICHE.....as careful as all of us try to be, as much as we try to anticipate or prepare, situations arise for which we simply are not either mentally or physically prepared AT THAT MOMENT, even if we have been in that same situation a thousand times before....  It happens to all of us, only we don't always realize it.   Time and unforeseen circumstance befall every person.....and sometimes, you can do everything right an do exactly what you are supposed to do, and STILL get a shitty result.  There are simply NO guarantees in life except Death, Taxes and the loyalty of dog you've treated right.

responsible report with real facts and not speculation.  

None of this excuses the guys actions at all, but Vegas is a pretty scammy place even outside of sex work. There are a lot  of idiot tourists with a lot of money are coming and going. Also people are confused about the legality of sex work in LV. Buyer beware.

Agency screening is usually to make sure you aren't law enforcement. Prostitution still illegal in USA. Some cities have relaxed enforcement of it, NYC for example won't go after the girls but they will go after the pimps/managers/bookers. In Europe, prostitution is legal in most countries which is why agencies don't screen. There is also better protection of sex workers by police and the law in Europe, so you also see less crime. Amazing how when you make things legal and regulated they become safer, ahem marijuana.

I think the emphasis now is to go after anyone connected with human trafficking especially with underage victims.

The agency she worked for was an incall/walk-in Latina Massage Parlor called Camel Spa. They don't screen at all.
.
Pretty sure based on the news report that the guy who killed her wasn't related to the massage spa. Sounds like he was probably a customer from one of her direct online ads.

Sigh...

Or have shame???  FIFTY of her friends and family showed up in court for this douche bag's court appearance. Does that sound like shame and embarrassment? And he's staying in jail until at least August 6.

What I meant was the guy did not get away with and is off the streets.  It’s sad that the last resort is that you may have killed me but won’t get away with it.  But that is the system that’s in place.

In San Francisco it is " defacto" legalized as long as it is not street action. The City treats crimes against prostitutes just as serious as the same crime against a civilian girl.

Hello Miss....

You could just use your brain and eyes by thinking about they are acting & Shit like that
