Clamping Down

[Nononsense111]

I was reading an extremely interesting thread in the legal section this week. Really has me thinking.

Is the scope of the law changing in respect to clients and prosecutions. My understanding before was that any successful DPP prosecution was reliant on an admission on the part of the client. The client essentially hanging themselves out to dry.

Recently, reading that thread, and from messages I have gotten from 2 different people, it seems the approach is different now. It's no longer trying to get the punter to slip up on their words, coerce them into a confession. All 3 scenarios I've heard of recently, it has been straight taking of details and informing of potential prosecution/summons, on the basis that being in a house/apartment used by a live escort advert is sufficient to at least be grounds for a summons.

Before people say the risk of getting stopped is minimal and reduced if you choose right. I know this. I've been punting long enough to know the do's and dont's. Its just interesting to read and hear about this seemingly new approach.

Just a thought. Unlikely to hinder my punting however
