I bet next time he will think twice about seeking out a prostitute in the UK.....

A UK man is counting the cost of seeking out sex with a prostitute after the courts ordered him to pay nearly £1,000 ($1682=U.S dollars) in fines and costs. Some say that this is the largest fine of its kind.

A 28-year old man was seen on CCTV picking up a prostitute on June 4th. He was later traced by his vehicle registration and was charged with soliciting a prostitute.

After pleading guilty on Wednesday, the magistrate fined him £300 or $504 US and was ordered to pay£615 or $1034 to the Magistrate's court.

2009-11-14T02:40:00.000-08:00

Four men were arrested outside a massage parlor in Holtsville Wednesday after police said they solicited a plainclothes officer - as other police officers were removing massage equipment from the building following a prostitution bust.

The bizarre incident occurred after police arrested four women on prostitution-related charges at Oriental Massage at 1033 Waverly Ave. in Holtsville Wednesday at 5 p.m.

Police said while officers were at the scene, four men approached the plainclothes officer, believing she was a prostitute.

"They solicited to engage in a sexual act for a fee and continued to do so as officers were carrying seized massage equipment out of the building," police said in a statement.

A Look At "Trick Rolls"

In 2009 alone, more than $2 million will be stolen in "trick rolls", in which a prostitute robs a client.

Their valuables gone, like their ladies of the night

By Abigail Goldman

People in the company of Clark County prostitutes collectively reported having $1.4 million in cash and goods stolen from them during the first nine months of this year — dupes of a larceny genre better known to police as the “trick roll.”

By year’s end, it’s estimated the total reported losses will exceed $2 million — almost double last year’s total, and probably a fraction of the real amount.

How many people file police reports, after all, when their prostitutes disappoint?

Enough, at least, for Metro vice detectives to determine the problem is getting worse, and assign two detectives to trick roll investigations exclusively. They’ve gotten roughly one case every day this year. In 2007 it was more like one a week.

That increase could have something to do with the economy. Fewer tourists with less money means supply exceeds demand. Prices drop and competition ratchets up for prostitutes, many of whom police say must meet nightly quotas set by pimps. Metro Sgt. Donald Hoier, though, says the problem picked up before the economy fell, simply because Clark County was saturated with sex workers and outlets for illicit entertainment.

When everybody scrambles for the same pool of money, bad seeds take short cuts.

Consider the reported losses Hoier reads from a list of cases: $10,000 in cash, casino chips and a laptop; $30,000 in cash and chips; $20,000 Rolex; $6,000 Rolex; $5,000 cash; and — perhaps the most interesting, a case Hoier can only hint at — $175,000 in casino chips.

These are preposterous amounts, which is probably why they were reported in the first place.

Sometimes these are crimes of opportunity. A watch is left out, a laptop is folded in the corner.

But there are prostitutes for whom sex is only a pretext to theft, and others who have no intention of sleeping with their clients, Hoier said. They know how to exploit angles and mirrors to see safe codes being punched, while others, Hoier says, actually become good at identifying the tones assigned to each number on the key pads.

“While he’s in the shower,” Hoier says, “she’s taking everything.”

Drugs are slipped into drinks. Clients are escorted to ATMs for payment, only to find their cards have been stolen by someone who surreptitiously saw the pin number. Two women come to one room and run lewd tactical diversion.

But sometimes it’s just a matter of violence.

Prostitutes have pulled guns. Pimps, waiting nearby, Hoier says, have beaten people just shy of death.

All of this is easier to accomplish when the target fits a preferred profile: intoxicated and alone.
