Voted for the bill that led to his arrest. Do as I vote, not as I do! Leaked out somehow. Otherwise, I’d guess it would have been buried given his political affiliation. https://pamplinmedia.com/pt/9-news/...aker-dave-hunt-cited-in-sex-trafficking-sting Former Oregon House Speaker and current Clackamas Community College board member Democrat Dave Hunt was cited by Portland police in an undercover sex traffic sting operation in April. Contacted by the Portland Tribune on Monday, May 3, Hunt said, "I don't think I should talk about that." As a legislator, Hunt was one of numerous sponsors of a bill criminalizing sex trafficking in 2007. In 2011, he also voted for HB 2714, that bill created the crime of commercial sexual solicitation, the crime for which he was arrested and cited. The Portland Police Bureau issued a press release May 1, saying its Human Trafficking Unit had cited eight men in an operation conducted in April. Officers posted online decoy ads on known human trafficking websites, and the subjects who "contacted undercover police officers to arrange payment for sexual acts" were criminally cited on the charge of commercial sexual solicitation.
Well duh; Prostitution Units have been around forever. But it wasn't a felony until manhaters took control of the culture. So it "suppresses" (imprisons) the men involved and "rescues" the women involved.
