Senator Harry Reid's Call to Outlaw Legal Prostitution in his Address to the Nevada Legislature |
|
Tuesday, 22 February 2011 |
 Nevada Coalition Against Sex Trafficking Press Release about Sen Reid's proposal to outlaw legal prostitution "I recently met with a group of businessmen who run data centers for technology companies. They visited Storey County to see about opening a facility there, a move that would have created desperately needed jobs.Storey County does a lot of things right. It’s the home of the Tahoe-Reno Industrial Center, which is the largest of its kind in the country. But one of the businessmen in that meeting told me he simply couldn’t believe that one of the biggest businesses in the county he was considering for his new home is legal prostitution. I’ve talked to families who feel the same way – parents who don't want their children to look out of a school bus and see a brothel. Or to live in a state with the wrong kind of red lights. So let’s have an adult conversation about an adult subject. Nevada needs to be known as the first place for innovation and investment – not as the last place where prostitution is still legal. When the nation thinks about Nevada, it should think about the world’s newest ideas and newest careers – not about its oldest profession. We should do everything we can to make sure the world holds Nevada in the same high regard you and I do. If we want to attract business to Nevada that puts people back to work, the time has come for us to outlaw prostitution." Nevada Coalition Against Sex Trafficking Press Release |

Massage parlor prostitution is where human trafficking happens in Las Vegas |

Wednesday, 28 July 2010 |
![]() Massage parlor prostitution is where human trafficking happens in Las Vegas INSIDE VEGAS by Steve Miller AmericanMafia.com July 26, 2010 Most taxi drivers will tell you that the majority of local massage parlors are fronts for prostitution. Many parlors offer male patrons what is called a "Happy Ending," or in some cases a "Full Girlfriend Experience" for an extra fee. These specialties are not taught in accredited massage therapy schools.
There are those who suspect certain Strip hotel and casino owners actually condone the nearby massage parlors and escort services that supply a quick release to male casino patrons. The alternative is a five or six hour round trip to Nye County where prostitution is legal. Casino insiders tell INSIDE VEGAS that trips to Nye County take gamblers away from the tables for too long, so quickies with escorts or Asian masseuses are tolerated in the hotels or just down the street in our town's neighborhood shopping centers. This may be the reason that Clark County District Attorney David Roger has joined with the NBMT commissioners in ignoring the problem. The commissioners are appointed by the governor. The governor and DA solicit campaign contributions from the casino owners who don't like it when their gamblers lollygag for half the night and spend thousands at Sheri's, or the Chicken Ranch sixty miles away. For many years Nevada Board of Massage Therapy board members: Billie Shea (Chairman) Reno; Michelle Viesselman (Vice Chairman) Las Vegas; Robin Graber (Secretary/Treasurer) Reno; Joe Cracraft (Board Member) Las Vegas; Michael Smith (Board Member) Las Vegas; Tree Allemang (Board Member) Reno; Kathleen Pilgreen (Board Member) Las Vegas; Sergeant Lenny Lorusso (Advisory Member) C/O Las Vegas Metro PD, have ignored out of control prostitution and human sex slave trafficking occurring in our neighborhood massage parlors. |
