Landlord convicted of letting out apartment to prostitutes

[happygolucky]

A LANDLORD has admitted he knew the property he leased to a group of individuals was being used as a brothel.

Let's be honest here , a lot of people have him down as a pimp or as a
front for the pimps

[Mickey O leary]

Yes a lot do see him as a pimp.
We will see a lot more of this I think in NI too when the bill comes into force next year.

"You are not obliged to say anything".

Admitting something that cannot be proven is usually not a good idea.

And admitting something on the promise that you will get a specified sentence is very dangerous. Courts, not cops hand down sentences.
I can understand why people would allow themselves to be put under pressure, but if he had simply denied all knowledge of what was going on, there was probably not enough evidence even to bring it to court.

They may have presented him with evidence to tie him to the brothel, so he could not say he had absolutely no knowledge of his property's use. But the wording sounds like a statement from a plea bargin.
