"Raunchy topless photos had her face blurred out.
She wrote: “My face is covered to protect myself as I’m ultra discreet.
“I have my regular job and a private life."
Very nice of them to plaster her uncovered face all over the paper now that she has been murdered
In a way it's also good to show faces, it let's people that know nothing about escorts, now know that real women choose to do this profession, not everyone is forced and trafficked. It also brings a face to the victim where there might also be some empathy shown, if it was just the standard woman in lane with high boots on half the readers wouldn't give a shitOriginally Posted by xagerate

Very good article on Vice on how this woman is being treated by the press.

Murder is murder? Apparently not. It depends on the victim.
" The downgrading of victimhood for social undesirables is nothing new. Death, if you're a sex worker, a drug addict or a suspected gang member, for instance, is, to be blunt, kind of your own fault. Certainly, the public isn't encouraged to look at you with quite as much sympathy as your innocent neighbour. Well you're not exactly innocent are you?
At the time of Peter Sutcliffe's trial, in 1981, Sir Michael Havers, then Attorney General of Britain, made a public statement about the nature of the "Ripper's" crimes. Specifically, he made some handy suggestions for people who were wondering how sad they should feel about the women Sutcliffe has murdered, many of whom were sex workers. "Some [victims] were prostitutes," Havers said. "But perhaps the saddest part of this case is that some were not."
