A provider was busted on 3/9/2010.

Another provider was busted on 3/18/2010.

16 guys were busted between 3/19/2010 - 3/20/2010.

In light of recent circumstances be extremely careful who you book an appointment with since Maryland is doing reverse internet stings now.

Can you post the link?

do you have a link to who was busted?

As posted before I don't post links with names.

The 2 providers that got busted are African American from our region. One posted bail.

Going back into the history books 3 years ago (around this time) there was another bust in Howard County from providers who screened and they had seen the guy multiple times. LE stacked out the place and asked many guys questions on freaked an spilled the beans leading the arrests.

I googled "Howard County Prostitution Busts" and it didn't reveal any results dating to dates that you have mentioned in your post.

It is not a good practice to use your alias to scare fellow hobbyists and providers with unsubstantiated rumors.

They don't always publish hobby arrests.

Case in point there have been several Asian massage parlor ladies who have been busted around Dec 2009/Jan 2010 but no press releases.

There is a story about busts on Rte 1 and Route 175, in Jessup.  Seventeen men arrested for soliciting policewomen dressed as escorts.  It seems they were streetwalkers, a little bit different IMO

Are you a real hobbiest or a provider trying to keep your "clientele" from using other ladies?  Posting alleged busts is a good way to keep regulars from straying.  Post the link- you are using an alias so what's the harm?

That was from 2009.

I am talking about 2010.

without any details this information is not very useful

to spread fear to me.

The information is on the internet.

OK. So post the link or tell us how to get there.

Someone like mr. hobbynews could post links to actual events. Have it sectioned by county/state.
Statistics and data of what kind of bust it was. How many people got busted in a monthly/yearly basis. Also have how much money is spent on these busts or how much a given area has for a budget for this vice criminal activity. A list of Hotels that busts have occured in would be nice too. A break down on ethnicity of ladies or gents that were busted. Age ranges. It would require someone with inside LE knowledge, probably. Maybe someones Master Thesis on the pyschology of Busting Prostitutes. One can dream, fantasize or sit around scared, timid, worried, fretting or what might happen to them in this hobby.

If you want to do your fellow hobbyists some good post your link if it is a different link. Or go on the RO board and post it.

Claims of busts without any verification are useless.

The overwhelming majority of bust claims I've read her and on other boards have nothing at all to do with the hobby - but are at the street level or just a notch up.

There is a truck stop near that intersection, and ladies have been known to frequent it.  Busts happene there year round.

You did not search the correct site. I will give you a hint the site is payed for tax dollars, lol.

You have to know what things to put into for the search. You can use items from the previously press release to get the data you need.

I had to spend about 2-3 hours to get the data for Howard County for 1 month.

I mean holy crap why are you making it so difficult?

Just post a link, you child...

Time to call a "payed" a "paid".  This is so bogus.
