PEARL, Miss.–They would put an ad online online and travel to Pearl to meet the john, say Pearl Police, but last week seven ladies of the night became ladies behind bars. Cops said it was an effort to stamp out the world’s oldest profession in their city.
“This criminal element will not be tolerated in the city of Pearl, Miss.,” said Lt. John Johnson of the Narcotics Division of the Pearl PD. “A hard line is drawn in order to preserve the quality of life we have in our city.”
He said police found out that a website was being used to solicit prostitution, so his officers moved in and were able to arrest the ladies.
Note: Kashika Smith had four of her kids when she was busted, during a solicitation and Sharon Johnson had two of her kids with her.
Here are the names and charges:
Danyell Anderson- Solicitation of Prostitution, Felon in Possession of a Firearm
Emily Campbell-Solicitation of Prostitution
Contessa Cox- Solicitation of Prostitution, Possession of Marijuana
Sharon Johnson- Solicitation of Prostitution, had two of her children present at the time of solicitation
