Encinitas Ho-down

Union-Trib:
A prostitution detail in Encinitas led to four arrests Friday evening, a San Diego Sheriff's Department release said.
Unlike the Union-Tribune and the North County Times, Encinitas Undercover will not publish the suspects' names, as we do not believe attempting to participate in a voluntary transaction for consensual sex merits permanent branding as a social outcast and permanent damaging of someone's employment prospects. If you agree, please contact the puritans at the U-T and the NCT.

Libertarian lecturing aside, where is the hotbed of prostitution in Encinitas? I do declare, there was a time when I was so lonesome I would have taken some comfort there. Have you seen women out on El Camino like on El Cajon Boulevard?

  1. Ha, WC nice S&G quote. I agree with the libertarian take on this subject.

  2. These days people use online ads to avoid the risk of walking the street.
    Two people agreeing to a transaction is one thing, but too often (most often) there is a pimp involved "protecting" (extorting) the female. This happens even in Amsterdam's Red Light District where prostitution is legal. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_Wallen#Pimping_and_human_trafficking

  3. Back when there was a short-lived "gentlemen's club" on Encinitas Blvd I think there were a few hookers loitering after dark on El Camino Real around that lonely section just north of the Presbyterian church/Manchester Ave intersection (east side). I'd see them while driving up from the fwy. Once the strip club closed down, I no longer saw women loitering there when I drove that way.

    No proof that the women I saw were hookers, just a hunch. But one has to wonder when an area usually deserted of pedestrians (day or night) starts to attract women hanging around in semi-suggestive clothing & ridiculously high heels, carrying large handbags. Oh wait, that describes half the customers in The Forum stores, but they don't look out of place there.
