According to a news source tonight, that famous person who recently was busted in DC called a BP provider to his room for an $80 visit.  The provider was not a provider......  Sounds like he avoided saying the magic words about exchange of $ for S, but was busted anyway; not sure of the complete facts.

Otherwise we may see another person taking matters in their own hands to deal with the problem like Brandy and Deborah Jeane....

They mentioned he went into a sting operation where 14 other guys got arrested. They also mentioned he went into the hotel with a hoddie. Go watch the video.

It was an outcall. Why are some people so... not clever?

I'm assuming he didn't do his 'homework' on said lady and probably did a TOFTT.  Again, I don't know the exact details, but the report says that there was certain explicit language about what was occuring that from what I know isn't supposed to be talked about.  When you say he avoided the language of saying $ for S, I don't think he did exactly, because the article states that she told him what was what and even though he didn't say the 'magic words' he still complied with the offer.  That is what, as far as I know in legal terms, got him.

"D.C. undercover officers were responding to “complaints” about prostitution activity in the 1500 block of Rhode Island Avenue NW". The other new source mentioned that 14 guys were arrested. They also mentioned he walked into the hotel with a hoddie. This leads me to believe that this article is not completely accurate.

Sounds like a lot of inconsistencies in the reporting. I haven't read the article you're referring to- can you give me an exact phrase from the article I can google to find it?

Whatever happened to the legal idea of entrapment?  If the LEO told the guy it was "$80 for sex,"  Then she is the person soliciting, not him.  That's why I wonder about all this.

Check video link I sent you.

with the story. If you read the Washington Post, it says the undercover officer went to his room, and it details the conversation. If you watch the video from ABC, it says it was an incall sting. Who knows?

They might be releasing false information so the defense can't use it against them in court. It also has a desired effect of scaring guys into staying away from outcall and try to get them into incall reverse stings. He might end up suing the dc police department for defamation of character.

$80?

somehow given his public contrition I doubt he'd have much of a case.
