McCartney said three women were questioned, but no one was arrested. He predicted the imminent confiscation of "a large amount of evidence." The law enforcement officers who conducted the raid, armed with a search warrant, were helped by members of DAYONE, a sexual assault-domestic violence advocacy group.

Oh god. If the government isn't making money off it, they don't want you doing it. Let people do what they want to do as long as they aren't hurting other people. I rather see prostitutes and Johns hook up online than on the street corner

Believe it or not, in 1492 Columbus visited this establishment in Warwick,
that's why the big minds at BROWN want poor Chris outed!

All kidding aside, this may have something to do with "human trafficking". Not all "sex workers" are selling themselves willingly nor are they getting much of the money involved. This is NOT ALL funny!

I can't imagine why the government would be so involved in punishing people who give pleasure as a business. Their (police) time would be better spend hunting down the guys that peddle drugs and destroy the lives of their customers.

Come on people more of this!!! Do the Warwick PD and other organizations affiliated with this so called "Raid" really think that there was any human trafficking going on at this establishment. I mean come on the place was right on Post rd. a road that has lots of traffic and they obviously were not trying to hide anything because if the were they would probably be smart enough to establish themselves somewhere more secluded and out of site. I say this states law enforcement offices and others involved stop wasting time and tax dollars trying to fight this and just regulate, monitor and tax the hell out of it like you do everything else and start concerning yourselves with more serious issues.
