Although there is no specific act in law against using a brothel, it is not unknown for the police, when investigating the running of a brothel, to prosecute punters using laws covering harassment or anti-social behaviour. This is especially so if there have been complaints from the brothel's neighbours. The view would be that punters were actually assisting in the running of the brothel by giving it their custom. As a comparison, consider the law against kerb-crawling which was introduced many years ago - that came about due to complaints from the public - after all you couldn't stop a girl from just standing at a bus stop could you, even if she was dressed provocatively! No, my message is beware of brothels for fear of getting mixed up with the law, albeit unwittingly.(17-03-2012, 19:43)silverfox Wrote:(17-03-2012, 11:41)wife4rent Wrote:(14-03-2012, 17:33)hornynomad Wrote: Four girls working from one apartment? That makes it a brothel doesn't it which is illegal - beware because even punters using brothels can be prosecuted! Solo escorts though are a different matter.
Can you expand on this

Hi Sarah
Details below:
The Sexual Offences Act 2003 changed most sex work laws, and has since been changed further.
Good info...
Sorry I actually meant the bit about "punters using brothels can be prosecuted!"
