Carolyn has dabbled in many aspects of industry such as travel, entertainment, and pharmaceutical sales, plus many others, which has made her infamous. She has been highlighted here for her accomplishments in the recent past. Over the pjuast 12 months, Carolyn has been arrested 5 times. Over the past 24 years, she has been booked into the jail 157 times (140 arrests). Today, she is back on the street because her case was adjudicated nolle prosequi (no prosecution). Hmmm, I did see where she didn't fully execute a contract in the affidavit, and the officer made an offer of money, which doesn't help the case,but she was behaving in a manner consistent with a prostitute, and she does have a long history of prostitution. It seems to me, a reasonable man would conclude; if you walk like a prostitute, act like a prostitute, flag cars like a prostitute, you ARE a prostitute. However, there are things in the law that must be satisfied, and it appears some things were left dangling on this case. Funny thing though, even though the officers didn't get a conviction, Carolyn did spend 21 days in jail, which is more than most!

What can I do as a regular citizen of Memphis, TN to help impose a higher level of punishment for prostitution? I keep seeing the same women that get locked up for prostitution walking down Lamar shortly thereafter. Vice has put in an incredible amount of time and hard work to get these people off the streets, lock up the John's, close hotels that allow sex crimes to take place on their properties... but all their work goes in vain if the "bad guys" are let off with a slap on the wrist. It must be very discouraging for them when they put fourth high quality work for nothing. I understand that there is a law in Memphis that states those arrested due to prostitution must be checked for HIV and if positive results are shown then they can get locked up for aggrivated prostitution which is a class C felony. Are these STD tests being conducted? If not, I'm sure that locking these STD infested prostitutes in a prison versus jail may make them seek an alternative lifestyle or occupation. If not, at least they were off our streets a bit longer.
WOW! She she had the nerve to expect more than $20?
