Interesting Article

This morning, while catching up on the news on washingtonpost.com, I cam across this article, Spotsylvania Deputies Receive Sex Services in Prostitution Cases. A couple of things. First, I have only lived in Spotsylvania County for a year and some change, and I am unfamiliar with the fact that there were so many massage parlors in the county. Secondly, why are sheriff's deputies engaging in sexual activity in order to arrest prostitutes? I find it curious indeed that our local sheriff condones his deputies breaking the law in order to arrest people. Oh, and only unmarried detectives are involved in this sort of sting operation? Granted, that makes sense, but COME ON. No other law enforcement agency in the country uses tactics such as these, and for the very reason that it's breaking the law. Also, I find it very difficult to believe that our elected supervisors had no knowledge of these tactics. This article just hit the "Gee that's interesting" scale for the day. WOW, another day, another thing that simply amazes me.
