Craig’s List is a haven for prostitutes

Internet prostitution:

The world's oldest profession is going high-tech and prostitutes are now soliciting their customers over the internet. A DeKalb County prosecutor said that this new method is making it tougher to make arrests.

Solicitor Robert James said the problem is spiraling out of control, in part, because the website content is federally protected.

[...]

James said many of the online call girls are bypassing pimps and inviting potential customers to meet them at a location selected by the prostitute.
Pimps being put out of business? That's a plus as far as I'm concerned. Why can't they just set up an appointment to meet the women and then arrest them when they are solicited?
