I looked back, but didn't find any discussion about this story on here.

about this topic and the thread was removed.  IF TER removed it, then maybe they don't want this topic discussed here.  If you removed it, then FUCK YOU for wasting my time.

The news story has names. That's a TER no-no.

It took me several tries to get this posted and one of those tries was actually posted briefly and then promptly removed by TER.

I'd be interested in hearing what you have to say.

the po-po here will go after homegrown sites primarily since it's low hanging fruit. 

During the course of the investigation, undercover detectives made "dates" with more than a dozen different  "K Girls." The information they gleaned from these women was in keeping with what League members and agency-owners would later say: While K Girls did come to the area expressly to work at Asian brothels, the relationship was more one of independent contractor than indentured servitude.

UnFuck You.  Lol

This bust has been discussed extensively on the Kgirl board, although admin took down some of the posts that named names.  This bust happened because a bunch of guys got together and formed a "hobby club" and would get together IN PERSON for breakfast or lunch and compare notes on working girls, mostly Kgirls.  Nearby patrons overhearing the conversations reported them to LE and the group was infiltrated by an undercover officer over a period of a year who gained membership in the group.  (Rule 1:  Don't ever meet in person with another hobbyist that you don't personally know and have not personally vetted.)  Once the office had the real names of the members and the locations of the incalls, they busted the members (all of whom were outed publicly and had their lives ruined), several orgs and about a dozen working girls, along with a local review site these guys were running.      
   
This was entirely preventable had these guys not had the arrogance to meet in a large group and discuss their hobby in a public place in front of civilians.  This bust should not be unsettling to anyone, hobbyist or provider, who is careful and diligent in their hobby life.  The circumstances were unique

Although I know that thanks to Twitter there are also numbers of girls getting together for big lunches to do much the same, though they don't do it regularly in the same places, and it's much easier to check if another girl is a genuine working girl before you agree to meet.
I do wonder if other diners around those meetings listen in on the conversations though!!

Just google this happening and you'll get all the information you need as to names, places, setups, etc.

when it first happened in January was that all of these girls were sex slaves and working against their will.  The girls often go along with this because then they are treated as "victims." plead out to a misdemeanor, get probation with very few conditions, and go on to the next city to work at another org.  Depending on the jurisdiction, some can go to "hooker school" (like going to school to erase a traffic ticket) and get their record expunged.  Hooker school is an especially popular option with girls busted in the Bay Area.

Mine got pulled too, but I'm not going to waste my time posting again

Ok I lied. Seems it was in my messages

Exactly! Most European Countries will tell the US to "fuck off" when they demand records. Privacy is much more respected and protected over there. The fact that the US puts more people in prison than any other country in the world, even the "evil" ones, like China and Russia, don't lock up their people the way we do, it doesn't help the US. Who else in the world would twist a simple Kgirl situation into "human trafficking"? Get the feeling that LE was trying to get an under-aged provider "in the mix" so they could really throw the book at those guys? There is going to be a lot of LE butt hurt and desperation to keep careers and budgets as marijuana becomes legal in the country. I get the feeling that one of the next "created" LE issues will be human trafficking and the evils of prostitution. They are not going to allow all those prisons to go empty.
