I'd be very inclined to believe you're right. However, that whole area is very bible beltish, if anything like that is brought to LE's attention they'll more than likely clamp down on it. Not too many years ago they used to have people lined shoulder to shoulder along route 234 for 1/2 a mile to 3/4 of a mile on both side's protesting abortion.

I don't have first hand experience with them, but from all indications this was another low-rent brothel, like the ones busted in the last 6 months or so around Prince William county. Yes, those were hispanic.

Maybe they didnt advertise on the net.....

As great and as resourceful the net is for this "hobby" there are still many agencies and good ones at that, that dont use the internet for their business.  They might just use the resources of the phone book, or simply word of mouth.  I know many people are afraid of using agencies from the phone book for fear of bait and switch, or just being plain ripped off, but there are many, many men who still call.  I started off working for a PV agency that advertised ONLY in the phone books, and so did a few other very popular ladies that post regularily on this board. The agency was Invisible Stockings and it has since been closed down, for the owner just decided to retire....I actually enjoyed working for that agency...it was the 1st place I ever worked so I have a certain fondness towards it and its owner..but it was a very good place, and very busy and the incall was located in Manassas, then it was moved to Gainesville simply because the owner moved to Gainesville, and incall was held in her house believe it or not  I am sure not many people that post or read TER have even heard of Invisible Stockings.  This group of people that were busted probally didnt even advertise on the net, maybe they dealt with paper ads only..such as the City Paper or the Washingtonian. Who knows? In every city even if you dont think so, there is some girl or guy working as an indy, and some agency working out of a house or apartment. So I personally think that these unfortunate individuals didnt deal with the net, but I could be wrong....if I am wrong it would be a first though...
