wow!!!
If LE calls you up, don't agree to say anything. Get a lawyer. Most escorts I have talked to use their cell phones to talk to friends/family and clients so they may not have anything on you


I do the same thing. If I have an outcall to a hotel room where the guy wants me to meet at the hotel bar (occasionally the client's plane is late and we meet after restaurants are closed)...I patrol the hotel and often ask a hotel worker if anything interesting happened today.  I used to work in a hospital and in the mall so I see a lot of familiar faces

About 8 years ago a friend of mine went to a house in Manhattan that I had been to several times.  It was a very popular incall place at that time, always 6-8 girls available.  He paid the girl and they got down to business.  In the middle of the session when they were heavy into 69 one of the girls came barging in the room and said, "Put your fucking clothes on now!"  They quickly dressed and the police walked in a few moments later.  My buddy only managed to get his pants on before the NYC cop took him aside and started asking questions.  Why are you here?  What are you doing?  That sort of shit.  My friend explained to the cop that it was his birthday (it really was) and he just came in for a little massage.  The cop asked to see his ID (drivers License) and wrote down his personal information.  He told my buddy that he'd be receiving a letter in the mail from the NYC Department of Health.  About what he didn't say. The cops then told my friend to beat it out of there saying, "they didn't have time for some bullshit prostitution charge.  He scooted out of there, pronto!  On the way out he noticed the cops drilling the girls and doorman real hard.  My buddy was single at the time so he wasn't worried about the letter in the mail and it never came anyway.  He was really lucky he got out clean, and I felt so bad that I had referred him there.  He was so shook up, he never saw a provider again. We're still best friends, and now he recalls the whole thing and laughs about it.

The same thing happened to me a couple of years ago but the circumstance was a bit different.  I had scheduled with a traveling agency lady that was in town during Super Bowl week.  While the ladies saw the Super Bowl as a way to make money, LE thought of it as a way to boost arrest counts.  

I am always aware of my surroundings but don't make a point of doing the type of surveillance that you do.  Anyway, I got to my appointment a few minutes early and called the agency for the room.  The agency said they wanted to tell the lady I had arrived before giving me the room number.  Well, after being held up for about 15 minutes, the agency admitted that they didn't know where the lady was but they gave me the room number to see if she would answer the door.  She did not answer.

I called the agency back and told them she wasn't in the room and they began to worry.  I left but called to see if she was OK a few hours later.  They never told me what happened but an article about postitution busts during the Super Bowl appeared in a local publication referring to the specific lady I was supposed to see.

I wasn't worried and I don't think you have any reason to worry.  They have to catch you in the act of solcitation to posecute you of anything.  Just because your name or phone number might have been in a ladies planner or phone does not you can be accused of anything illegal.

If the arresting officers were in uniform, and the police cars were marked, most likely she was arrested for an outstanding warrant or something that happened earlier.  It is highly unlikely it was part of a sting.

Good thing you weren't in the room at the time.  Even if you weren't arrested, it would have been  very embarrassing.  

Another good thing is that you hadn't seen her before.  If you knew her well, she might have called you from jail asking you to bail her out.  That's happened to me before!

I was talking with the girl on the phone for the final directions and suddenly the crackle of a police radio goes off in the background!   She said it was the TV- yeah, right.

My curiosity was killing me, though, so I later checked out the address from afar and it was an obvious sting operation.  The cops were using an empty condo for the sting and several plain-clothes cops were pretending they weren't cops in the parking lot, waiting for the next victim.  

What city did this take place in?  A lot of us in LA and Orange County have stories like this, especially with AMPS, but there have been some pretty famous stings with providers at their houses too.

While its much less common, cops in OC have arrested women and then threatened them with all sorts of legal problems if they won't work with them to roll on their customers.  In one well-known case, the policewoman was answering the provider's phone at her house (the provider was gone) and setting up appointments for unsuspecting guys to come over and get arrested.  

I had one very bad experience with a rip-off agency and it ended up costing me $22,000 in lawyers fees and two days in jail.  I've never really recoverd financially from the loss of income (over the course of a year) and cash spent on lawyers.  Needless to say, my reputation in the neighborhood was destroyed since I was arrested in my driveway and taken away in handcuffs.  

This can be a very risky business and must always be approached as such unless you're absolutely sure with whom you are dealing.  Unfortunately, as you might imagine, my bad experience makes it really hard for me to enjoy first encounters.

Another time I stumbled into a new "chiropractor's" office that was advertising massage but had no chiropractor working there.  The receptionist was obviously a cop (though fairly attractive) and I got a massage from a woman who was also obviously a cop.  She had hands like sandpaper and didn't know shit about massage.  Plus, she couldn't hide the one thing that gives them all away- her bad attitude.   Oh, and there was a little hole cut in the ceiling with what appeared to be a recessed camera lens barely visible.  When I asked her abou it she said "just ignore it."  I love how they think we're all morons.

So the bottom line is always be extremely careful when going into unknown situations.  The risks are real, but your common sense and diligence can mitigate a lot of them.

I would definately take a break for awhile, most likely she doesn't erase email or cell phone until after your meeting for security reasons, so they probably have whatever correspondance you had with her and may be watching you.
never take a chance, just a sabtical.

Back in the mid 1990's, most of the massage parlors in the Kansas City area were closed down.  The ones closed were on the Kansas side of the state line (Kansas City, KS), but there were a couple in Kansas City, MO which were open (different jurisdiction, of course).  I had visited one in downtown KCMO 3 or 4 times before.

One evening, I was in the mood for a "massage", so I pondered going downtown to this particular establishment again.  However, I was short of funds needed to partake in the particular type and duration of massage I typically got.  I decided instead to go elsewhere, and went to see an individual who was advertising in the local alternative newspaper, mainly because it was cheap.  I hadn't seen this woman before.  Her advertisement was suggestive, but the session was not.  It was a legit massage with no extras.  It wasn't bad, but not what I was looking for.  A couple of days later, I heard in the news that the downtown massage parlor I was pondering visiting that evening got raided that same night.  I just dumb-lucked into escaping that ordeal.  Although I wasn't directly involved in any way, that was the closest potential brush with LE I've had among my various pursuits of paid adult entertainment.

It will waste their time and prove nothing.

If they call, (doubtful) first, say what escort then tell them you DID NOT have an appt,

tell them you called only to inquire about a massage since her ad in the paper said massage.

If they say what paper, say she had an ad in whatever local newspaper has massage listed.

By the time they get to you .... her ad will have expired anyway and you don't rememer what issue and week and you also have an alibi.
