They only released this because you scooped them. I guess you'll have to scoop them on every story before the put it out there for the public to see. Webster needs to go.

Wow. "Whores R Us" busted again. This place just needs to be bulldozed down.

No worries folks they'll be back in a couple of days , same whores , same pimps just a different day.

They should just legalize the prostitutes and tax them $25 a go-round. It's really a victimless crime if the whores agree to it and are compensated.

pimpin ain't easy.

What they should also try is a sting to catch the Johns and have their names and pictures posted in the paper and on the blogs.

It won't end the oldest profession thats for sure, but sure would be a good deterent when the Johns know they will be going home to momma with a frying pan upside the head or do a Bobbit on them!

Guess that explains why it was allowed to go on for so long.

I hope this wasn't a surprise to anyone. This place has been a crack whore haven forever. Why can't we just bulldoze it?

Now, Tim, we don't want to go violating someone's privacy do we? I mean there's doctors, lawyers, married me, and EVEN ministers who go after these girls and they surely have a right to stay descrete don't they. We don't want the ACLU down here do we?

In truthfulness, publicizing the John's is the most effective way to do it but the Daily Times doesn't have the testicles to print it for fear of legal retribution.

I know I am going to get blasted for this, so here it is and I am ready, but what nationality are the motel owners? Judiciary Case Search says Other/Unknow. If for instance, Muslims (not saying they are), they are against this lifestyle in their countries and religion, but in America, the Grand USA, it is profitable? They come into this Country and buy all the stores, used to be just the 7-11's, now it is all stores and businesses. They won't hire American people to work for them, keep it in the families and friends but will make money off of the American women for doing the oldest profession there is. Go figure. Okay, some of you, let me have it. I tried to do my homework by the case search first.

Great work Chief and SPD. Now get out there and put the same effort into arresting whoever shot at the City Police car. I am sorry i would rock that neighborhood to the core until they came off of who did it.

They would gladly give the suspect up after of week of intensive proactive policing.

Jim I. and Alan get your heads out of your arses.

Call in the State, County, FPD, DPD and hunt this piece of shit down. The way this case was handled speaks volumes about the true concerns of you Brass SPD.

Time for the Sheriff to take the whole county over. I am sure there would be no rest until this turd was behind bars.

The city is overworked and underpaid. They have awesome cops.
They are just understaffed and I dont feel the mission includes the health and welfare of the good men and women who serve there.

Its time to take the saddle off of the dinosaur. We need one department on one communication system with a set of leaders that want more than a paycheck. The dudplication of services in time when funding is scarce is just the time to unify the troops. I know this will continue to fall on deaf ears util one of the "Big Names" gets hit hard by the area crime.

The robbery spree was an example of what havoc can be attained by crimnals when we do not have our resources in place.

How bad do you need it if you are buying a 50 year old hooker. Yuck

Prostitution spreads disease. This fact alone should be enough to keep the practice illegal.

Anonymous said...

Is this the place that the hooker that was killed and shot in the face was picked up at?

Anonymous said...

And this proves that Webster is taking a step in fighting crime? So he pops a few Johns and a prostitute. How about the real crime. More worst crime than a few BJ's being given.

Its about time.... It has been no secret this has been going on for a LOOOOOONNNNGGGGGGG time

true story,

I picked one of those girls up once, she was hitchking, it was like 4am and I was going to work...

in uniform...

I said, what the heck are you doing, you shouldn't be walking out here alone, then as soon as she opened her mouth, I realized what the deal was...

I know, I know, it was a stupid and naive thing to do...

guess that's me...

anyway, I kinda' felt sorry for her, gave her ten bucks, and dropped her off.

I know I wasn't thinking, I just thought I was doing a good deed.

anyway, the whole sting operation made me think...

guess I better not do that again..

Now if they'd go across the street. Lots of drugs & hookers there, too. Bulldoze both places.

The Mayor says he wants TRICK TRAVEL shut down!

8:13 a.m. you are so right about spreading diseases. And they want to put up a strip joint in Wicomico County. You see Worcester County didn't even entertain the idea so it was decided the next best thing was Willards. The good people of Willards put them out on their a** and let them know they were not welcomed in their town. So when will the next project be snuck in.

As long as the Canton Inn was in business and they were shut down because of prostitution. Be sure not to let these type of joints into our neighborhoods.

Do some REAL police work and go after the people bringing in the shipments of drugs into our town. Get these guys locked up, not the dope fiends. They're already lost and there will just be more to follow in their steps as long as the dope is on the street.

Chump cops and courts just know john/streetwalker bust=easy money
