Ohio
WATERBURY — Police arrested 27 people Thursday evening during an undercover prostitution sting that netted several people who have histories with the law.
Police made all of the arrests on Grove Street in a reverse operation in which officers posed as both street walkers and "johns." That section of the city has traditionally been the territory of prostitutes, which is a source of continual complaints from residents.
The crackdown marks the second major sweep of suspected sex workers this year.
Several of the women arrested have had brushes with the law in the past, including Christine DeCarlo, who was arrested during a similar operation that targeted suspected hookers in February.

Where have you been the last 8 years?
To each their own but a lot of Off Topic topics makes it a challenge sometimes to find the good, relevant stuff. Just my opinion. SS apparently doesn't value it. And yes, I can read this. ;-)
