Lath8n: Sp cq street prostitutes
In the module, from what I could gather, because this is my last part and I'm at my budget, it only talks about one form of prostitution, which is female prostitutes and male clients.
2. What is known about the prostitutes (e.g., age, gender, race, criminal history, social service history, substance abuse history, residence)?
Women of many different ages who have a long criminal history of prostitution, who rely on this as their living because of their record and addiction to drugs.
3. Do street prostitutes commit crimes against clients (e.g., robbery or theft)?
Yes, one of the students mentions being assaulted and robbed while paying for services, and the crime map shows there is a high influx of these crimes in the area, so they could be related.
4. Are street prostitutes the victims of crime?
Yes, because most are assaulted while performing these services, and in society, it can lead to much worse, like murder.
5. How committed are prostitutes to prostitution?
I wouldn't say they are committed to it, but they rely on it heavily because of their criminal history, drug addiction, and feel they have no one to rely on.
6. How committed are they to a particular location?
They know they get more business in certain areas, but they will move around if law enforcement displaces them from those areas.
