I seem to have a vague recollection of some Vice Squad in Texas that allowed their cops to actually have sexual intercourse to completion with the hooker (while being filmed on a hidden camera) in order to make the arrest. They'd only allow the single male cops to do it. Sounds like a sweet gig!

Used to be, you could count on that sort of thing. Unfortunately, many municipalities have started the practice of issuing dispensations for LEOs who might have to commit crimes in order to get the arrest. Depending on the case, sometimes even felonies.

Notsosly pointed out a growing thing. However, some suspect will get himself a good lawyer and that kind of thing won't hold up at the high court level. I can't see the Supremes saying it's cool for cops to committ crimes to catch a criminal. I know that both Scalia and Ginsburg would be dead set against it. The Supremes will probably shoot down that case by a 8 to 1 margin.

By they way, did anyone check out the link? I thought the photo was of the officer, then saw the caption saying it was the prostitute. Wow
