DA: Flushing Woman Ran Prostitution Ring from Long Island Spas:

Queens madam forced young Korean women into lives of sex slavery in L.I. massage parlors:

44-year-old Jin Hua Cui of Flushing, Queens, New York has been charged with forcing women into sexual slavery. Cui allegedly advertised nail salon jobs to the Korean community of Flushing. Instead of that the women she recruited were forced into working in Cui’s Long Island massage parlors. She threatened the women with either revealing to their families what they were forced to do or by saying that they would be killed by Chinese gangs.

And where did Cui advertise her massage parlors? Why craigslist of course. And I’m guessing it was in the adult services section where only ‘legitimate’ adult businesses are supposed to be.

Even if the drive from Flushing to Long Island was only 30 minutes that’s still human trafficking if you’re using coercion to force someone into sexual slavery. That’s the human trafficking that craigslist says they find abhorrent. If they did they would remove the adult services section.

Judge gives man 60 years in Craigslist rape case:

For thos of you who haven’t been following the story 28-year-old Jebidiah James Stipe, of Twentynine Palms, California pleaded guilty to setting up a rape through craigslist. Stipe had taken out a phony ad posing as a woman he wanted to get back at saying that she wanted to live out a rape fantasy.

She was actually raped by Ty Oliver McDowell of Casper, Wyoming who has also pleaded guilty.

Stipe, was sentenced today to 60 years to life for orchestrating this revenge rape.

Stipe said to the court that he learned his lesson and would be a productive member of society if he was not given any time. Too late for that scumbag. You should have thought of that before you placed the ad.

The victim put it best..

“I really hope that whatever sentence he gets is long enough that he doesn’t have the opportunity to do this to someone else, because I’m stuck with a life sentence that he gave me,”

So he’ll be 88 at the earliest when he gets out. Yeah he should be pretty useless if he gets out then.

But again this shows the problem of the anonymity that craigslist allows its users.

And to the male freaks out there that troll the casual encounters section of craigslist, I would say that less than 1% of women actually want a rape fantasy, and those that do must have serious mental issues.

I bet there’s a headline you’d never thought you’d see.

SoCal PI charged with fraud, bestiality conspiracy:

Former police officer facing fraud, intimidation charges:

53-year-old Kevin Michael Sianez is a former police officer who is in trouble for running a private detective agency in Orange County, California without a license and defrauding most of his clients. But that’s not what lands him here. Nosireebob.

Mr. Siaenz is on the pages of this here fine website because he allegedly placed ads on craigslist looking for women who want to have sex with his dog, specifically a Lab. He supposedly had responses to his ad too. It’s unknown if he actually got any women to have sex with his dog. But who the hell would actually respond to an ad like that? Wait, don’t tell me. I don’t want to know. I can only imagine what the ads must have said.

But now it’s time to flog the deceased equine again. Why was the ad not flagged? Was it so cleverly worded that it got past the ‘community policing’? Or was it because the community really does no policing on craigslist?

Selling sex on the Internet:

This is an article from the Arkansas Times where they interview a Backpage.com prostitute over the phone and she says she’s right in what she’s doing to feed her three kids. Personally I think it’s just a case of greed but, whatever.

What I would like to point out is the quote from the article where she thinks she’s safe in what she’s doing…

“Like a hooker walkin’ the street? I wouldn’t do that because you’ll end up getting killed or something. This way I’m able to screen my clients and I don’t do out-calls. I don’t try to get busted. I try to be discreet. I don’t have too many people coming to my house each day and I have a lot of repeat clients already,” she says.

I’m sure Julissa Brisman thought the same thing not to mention all of the other prostitutes that I’ve posted about here that have been raped, robbed or killed.

While I can empathize with her in wanting to provide for her children is it worth taking the chance that you may be taken away from them?

In case I haven’t mentioned it in a while Backpage is owned by Village Voice Media.

Craigslist ad tutor accused of child molesting to stay in jail:

I originally posted about Brett J. Zagorac here. He’s the former teacher who used the alias of BJ Wilhelm in order to allegedly molest kids by posing as a tutor on craigslist.

He was arrested in Portage, Indiana for allegedly inappropriately touching a 5-year-old boy that he was tutoring.

He was released on bond and part of the agreement was that he did not tutor any minor and was not to be left alone with a minor.

Pedophiles being what they are he did not meet that agreement as he allegedly tutored a 7-year-old girl from Evanston, Illinois. No word if he touched the girl but he was being investigated by Evanston police at the time.

So for violating the agreement Zagorac has been returned to jail to await his trial.

I’m sure it was only his love of teaching that caused him to violate the terms of his bond. And If you believe that I’ve got some Nebraska beach front property to sell you.

Ore. man gets nearly 16 years for sex trafficking:

39-year-old Donnico T. Johnson of Portland, Oregon was sentenced to almost 16 years in federal prison on child prostitution and trafficking charges.

Johnson would traffic a 15-year-old Seattle girl between Portland and Seattle for the purposes of prostitution and of course he advertised the girl on craigslist.

I wonder if this means that craigslist will send a cease and desist letter to the federal government to stop linking craigslist to child prostitution.

Hell, for that matter where is my C&D from craigslist?

Newberg Craigslist sex case defendant sentenced:

Back in October I posted about a sex ring that involved children and animals out of Newberg, Oregon. It was allegedly run by a man named Darrin Vaughn Daily who is accused of recruiting other members for the ring on craigslist.

Underage girls were forced to have sex with the members of the ring and sometimes animals and the acts were recorded.

Another member of the ring that was arrested was 42-year-old David Garcia. It seems that Garcia entered into a guilty plea with prosecutors and part of the plea deal is that he will testify against the other members of the ring. The thing is that prosecutors gave him a cushy sentence in exchange for his testimony.

He got 40 days in jail along with 5 years probation along with lifetime status on the sex offender registry. He’s also barred from having unsuper4visede contact with minors which include his own children.

Some of the other defendants have also already been sentenced.

Patricio Moreno was given five years probation and a lifetime on the sex offender registry since he passed a lie detector test where he said he didn’t knoiw the girl was underage and he agreed to testify against Daily.

Alisa Nice was given five months in jail and 5 years probation but violated the terms of her probation by being caught on the internet.

If these are the kind of sentences being handed out to child rapists in exchange for testimony then Daily better get one of those triple digit sentences.

Craigslist: Stop Linking Us To Child Prostitution In Atlanta:

WSB in Atlanta, Georgia is reporting that craigslist is sending cease and desist letters to various groups in Georgia to have them stop claiming that there is a link between child prostitution in Atlanta and craigslist.  One of those letters has even been sent to the Governor of Georgia.

They’re sending these letters to agencies that assist in helping get child prostitutes off the streets and off of craigslist. Notice that craigslist didn’t say anything about closing down the adult services and casual encounters section of their site, the sections where child prostitution is facilitated.

Instead craigslist would rather bully some agencies that are actually doing some good.

Police hunt for missing Maine mother:

Police in Both Maine and Long Island are searching for 22-year-old Megan Waterman. Ms. Waterman when on a trip to New York with her boyfriend, 20-year-old Akeem Cruz of Brooklyn, and disappeared on June 5th.

Waterman of Scarborough, Maine advertised herself on craigslist as an escort.

When she’s normally away from home she stays in touch with her 3-year-old daughter but has not been in contact since she disappeared.

Cruz has not been arrested in her disappearance but has been arrested in Portland, Maine this past Tuesday for criminal threatening with a dangerous weapon.

I’ll save my snark for another time. In the meantime please click on the flier to see if you can help.

Fresno Police Officer Arrested in Sex Sting:

Brian Ridenour is a 12-year veteran of the Fresno, California Police Department. Over the weekend he was arrested in a craigslist prostitution sting in Tulare County, California.

Ridenour is said to have worked on prostitution details himself and was awarded Officer of the Year in 2009.

He’s been placed on modified duty. I guess that means with pay.

You would think that someone who has been on prostitution details would know not to use the services of hookers lest you run the risk of getting arrested.
