Can you believe that anyone would support LE having sex with prostitutes in order to arrest them? Doesn't that make LE guilty of the crime they are fighting?

Most people would agree that the deception, the power differential, and the subsequent arrest of sex workers make such contact utterly unacceptable, even if they don't think that it rises to the level of rape. Yet the behavior is common enough to bring police unions to its defense on a regular basis.
In the same interview, however, Case claimed that police "are not out there to go out and find that street prostitute….What we're interested in now is the trafficking."
In other words, Anchorage police are arguing that they must be allowed to molest trafficking victims in order to do their jobs.
