Title: Mixed news from the US
Post by: xw5 on 19 February 2020, 04:37:55 pm
Do a search on Twitter for #joeytheplayer

twitter.com/AJDXOdotcom/status/1229897485646286849 is a sample.

After over a decade of waving large sums in front of US and Canadian escorts then raping them, he's finally been arrested and charged.

Astonishingly - or not, if you realise just how fucked up the US justice system is when it comes to crimes against sex workers - it could / should have happened many years ago.

May he rot in prison. Seems he relied on the fact that his victims wouldn't go to the police for fear of getting arrested themselves. The justice department site says his real name but if you google news search his name, there's only a few reports on local news sites. I would be great if the national and international press got hold of this story. A few quotes from sexworkers like what's being said on twitter ie his activities were common knowledge for over a decade but he got away with it because of sexwork criminalisation. Could pave the way for some actual policy change over there. Wishful thinking.
