Did Clinton Advise Undercover Cops?
From The Seattle Times:
Lynnwood police concede they engaged in “rarely used” tactics during an undercover investigation into a suspected prostitution ring.
Those tactics, which included officers allowing prostitutes to masturbate them in exchange for cash, have raised questions among law-enforcement officials, legal experts and the Snohomish County Prosecutor’s Office.
Lynnwood police Cmdr. Paul Watkins said he spent a great deal of time justifying the officers’ actions to prosecutors to prove that the officers themselves weren’t breaking the law. Snohomish County prosecutors on Monday filed a felony charge of promotion of prostitution against Myong Pang, 42, of University Place, Pierce County. On Sept. 30, they filed a misdemeanor prostitution charge against Myong Chow, 40, of Tacoma.
“The officers didn’t cross that line of engaging in intercourse or oral sex,” Watkins said. “I advised them no oral sex, no intercourse, that’s not going to happen. That’s the understood policy. There’s no written policy regarding this.”
But other law-enforcement officials who weren’t involved in the investigation say allowing officers to engage in such acts, even in an undercover investigation, goes too far. The usual tactic, they say, calls for an arrest once someone agrees to perform a sexual act in exchange for money…
Well, as long as there’s no written policy, I guess it’s okay…

I’m surprised that somebody isn’t screaming racism here since the only women mentioned by name were Asians.
You know, it is pretty sick that Seattle/King county can steal an election with multiple trips to a warehouse to find Democrat votes, but the police concentrate on prostitution. Far as I’m concerned, these “cops” were nothing more than Johns that should also face the judge.

1. They need written policies in place at this cop shop.
2. How is this different from a NARC operation or a Mafia bust? We have undercover agents buying selling drugs. We have u/c agents infiltrating the mafia, though they draw the line at killing.
3. I don’t think it is appropriate but I guess I question just how big this ring is that they need to allow the officers to do this and I also question what type of info they expect to get.

4, Zelda, that is the basic problem with Bill Clinton. He never paid for his sins, although, it would be embarassing to have in prison for rape and 2nd or 3rd degree sexual asault (groping).
