Atlanta Escorts: World Report

Posted on May 4th, 2010 in Atlanta escorts

LOS ANGELES, Calif. — Craigslist.com was subpoenaed on Monday by Connecticut’s attorney general, who is investigating whether the popular online classified ad service is doing enough to quash prostitution on its site and whether it may be profiting from it.
Attorney General Richard Blumenthal, who is co-heading a group of 39 states looking into the matter, said in a statement that thousands of ads remain on Craigslist despite assurances from the company they would be removed.
The private company could be earning $36.3 million or more a year from prostitution and human trafficking, he said, citing published reports. Most ads on Craigslist are free except for jobs, New York brokered apartments, and U.S. adult and therapeutic services.

“The Craigslist brothel business seems booming — belying its promise to fight prostitution,” said Blumenthal.
