I have question about getting busted and forgiveness...

Over the past several years, I've see posts on various boards about not seeing a provider months or years after she's been busted; she keeps getting reviews, so it appears everything is A-OK. Getting busted could happen to anyone, and it's happened to clients too. I'm sure many of us have known clients in unfortunate situations that continued to hobby without missing the beat of a drum, but it seems providers aren't afforded this luxury. Now, I've never been busted, but I find it interesting that when providers are, they aren't given a second chance. Clients are busted and keep seeing ladies, and the ladies know, they support the guys, and their bust might not be as public b/c they're not posting ads and bringing attention to themselves, but they're posting reviews and continuing to see ladies. So why the double standard? Maybe it's b/c ladies are here for money, so they're more forgiving, while men aren't of busted escorts. I totally am open to hearing any opinions, b/c I'm truly just interested, so no worries, I don't have an opinion either way, just interested in what everyone thinks. Ok, well hope everyone is having a good week. xoxo PS. this isn't a legal corner type post on legal issues, it's more of a post about potentially the double-standard when it comes to issues in this industry.

I don't see how a lady who has been busted is any more of a risk that a guy who has been busted. Truth be told, after seeing the pussies that used to call themselves men in the DC area when the heat got turned up there, I am much more likely to trust the ladies than the men here under the same circumstances. I have never been so embarrassed to have my name associated with being a whore monger, excuse me "Hobbyist" then when the shit went down there. Those guys, and some of them are still here and know who they are, were a downright embarrassment to mongers everywhere.

Back to the question at hand, many ladies over the course of a several year career have had a problem with LE at some time in their professional lives. I don't hold that against them unless there is evidence that they have "flipped"

Unless I feel something is not right, but that goes for ladies who were not busted too. If I feel the lady is reputable, and her incall feels safe (or I feel safe with her doing outcall to me), and nothing felt weird during the appointment setup and screening process, then I don't care what happened in the past.

It's like the scene in "The World According to Garp", where a plane crashes into a house Robin Williams and his wife were going to buy. He says, "We'll take the house. Honey, the chances of another plane hitting this house are astronomical. It's been pre-disastered. We're going to be safe here."

I'm not trying (well, a little bit) to make light of this, but maybe having already being busted reduces the odds of a lady being busted again.

I meant to put that in my post but left it out. Not only do I not have a problem seeing a lady who has been arrested, I have actually seen a few who have been arrested.
I agree with the rest of your post too.

tell me and I would not ask; so how else would I know. Not an issue for me.

Whether or not someone has been busted doesn't really bother me. But I do care about their screening practices today. I feel a whole lot better about meeting someone new when I'm being screened carefully.

Haha I had one of my gents tell me this same quote from that movie the other day while we were waiting for the elevator. Funny seeing it applied to this situation.

they've told me about it after we've gotten to know each other. And I'm guessing they've been a few I've been with that haven't mentioned it. With Sheriff Joe and his gang always lurking around the corner, it's a distinct possibility and I don't hold it against any provider. Some have mentioned that the bust occurs when they first start escorting and didn't really know how to screen thoroughly.

There's only one situation where I've known about a gal's legal problems and would not see her as s result.  She was part of a very high profile agency bust, was cooperating with LE and still seeing clients despite almost certainly being under surveillance.  As the mental patient said, "I may be crazy but I'm not stupid."

I might have seen someone who was busted in the past (like nicky said) and just don't know it...

There was a hooker in DC area who was so ignorant, clumsy, and careless that I cancelled on her an appointment that I had set a week in advance, when I received her mass email twice. The email had gone to other 250 Johns. Later on I found out that she was busted previously.  

If you want to hobby in a safe way, you are better off hobbying with someone who follows safety precautions and general common sense measure to protect herself and her patrons.

If a someone gets busted, everyone assumes they gave everybody else up to save their own skin.

I do not believe a blanket statement like that applies.

Each case is different and the rumors about the incident make it near impossible to ascertain the truth.

I know of a few ladies who've been busted and some guys too. Doesn't mean they are any more or less dangerous than before, they just somehow got caught. As others have noted, it all depends on the circumstances of how they got caught.

IMHO, it is the people who pass these rumors on who are to blame for the situations. Them and the "known" stool pigeons who think they know things and have no issues helping Uncle LEO

Busted for moving 2 tons of Bolivian Marching Powder?
Busted for civil disobedience at a Move On, Occupy Wall Street, or anti-Sheriff Joe rally?
Busted for selling Nintendo game consoles to Kim Jung Un?  
Busted for DWI/DUI?

In Phoenix last year,  1 of every 8 residents were busted for DUI.  Tracking the same this year.  
Yeah, I know what you are implying.  Hang around long enough, and shit will happen to men or women.  

Short answer is "no"

Always kind of amuses me to hear people talk about LE going after providers and clients like it was the Brinks Job and J. Edgar put the whole FBI on the case!  

While LE is a valid concern ALWAYS, Vice only has so many resources to spread around and I seriously doubt they are going to follow a busted provider around to see what she does, they just don't have the spare bodies - unless there is a lot more to the story than just an agency bust.  

But NO, I wouldn't see a provider that was 'cooperating with LE' either.... so how does one KNOW a provider is cooperating?

How do I "KNOW" she was cooperating?  First of all, I read the complaint.  Second, I personally know someone who was advising her and he confirmed it.
Also, while you're clearly not familiar with this case it was big news.  Big enough so that none of the details can be written here.  So, no, it wasn't "the Brinks Job" but both NYPD and Homeland Security were on the case.  The two principals were behind bars being sweated by LE, who had been inside the girl's apartment and taken pictures.  Despite this, she continued to provide and was pissed at those of us who declined to see her.
Clearer now?

Much.  And much different than the average situation, which is what I said 'unless'.
