Pasco Deputies Charge 4 Women With Prostitution:

Sheriff’s Deputies in Pasco County, Florida have arrested 4 women for prostitution. 3 were advertising on craigslist while one was using a different website.

Arrested were Jolyn Dawn Steier, 38, Angel Ann Stebelton, 35, Shawna Marie Lee, 20, and Kimberly Anne Jimino, 25.

What I found very interesting was what brought them to the attention of police.

Deputies had received complaints from the public as well as family members and friends of the women that they were soliciting sex on the Internet, said sheriff’s office spokesman Doug Tobin.

I wonder if they tried the vaunted flagging of the ads first. According to craigslist that’s supposed to solve everything.
