There’s what the words technically mean and how they are used. Technically, any one who exchanges certain sexual acts for something of value on a per transaction basis* is a prostitute. Technically , an an escort isn’t selling sex. They are selling their time and companionship so technically they aren’t sex workers. Plenty of escorts are in fact prostitutes but not all - some of them provide more of a “girlfriend” experience and sex is neither guaranteed nor off the table. As far as how they are used - prostitute usually refers to a particular type of sex worker , the type who finds customers on the street or who works in a brothel. Escort might refer to the “aren’t really selling sex” people or to the people who really are selling sex - but the common factor is that they advertise book appointments etc.
* This is to leave out the many ways in which sex can be exchanged for something of value not on a per transaction basis, which is generally neither considered illegal nor prostitution.
Do you all think Shannan Gilbert, the woman whose disappearance led to finding the first victims, was herself a victim of the LISK? I don’t. I tend to think it was a lucky coincidence.
I do think now the authorities are trying to tie every unsolved murder to their suspect. It’s a lazy way to close unsolved cases.
At one point in time my hubs could have - I worked in Cheshire CT and lived in Canterbury CT, a 75 mile one way per day commute m-f with an occasional saturday or sunday depending on work load. He could have easily pulled a belated E4 mafia sham and snuck out and used his spare key on my car to get my phone out [couldn’t have it inside the building so everybodys phones were in their cars]
I know, one of my temp gigs was doing data capture for a large law firm doing supreme court level lawsuits - Weyrehauser siding was one, Grand Distilleries had a merger that was fun to work on as well.
He was noshing on pizza when the women were raped and killed?
I can see how the pizza crust would retain saliva. It’s strange the guy ate while involved in a crime. I guess he could be a slob that threw trash out of his car near the crime scene.
No . The police already suspected him and while he was under surveillance he threw a pizza box in the trash. The box had a piece of uneaten crust from which his DNA was recovered. And it matched DNA of a hair found on one of the bodies.
Hence the importance as I suggested of eating all your pizza crusts. Do not leave stray saliva-DNA around for nosy detectives to find.
As to the rest of your objections, I could totally see a cold-blooded psychopathic whackjob finishing torturing his latest victim then enjoying a nice take-out pizza or whatever while she breathes her last. Sickos gonna sicko.
Only CNN knows for sure what they mean by that. However, “sex worker” is often (but not always) used to mean anybody whose job is inherently sexual in nature, such as strippers.
I know that “sex worker” can include strippers & nude/centerfold models. However, I’m assuming if I contacted a “stripper” on Craigslist to come to my home/hotel room there would be more than just her taking off her clothes while dancing to a song or two & therefore, what the difference was as CNN stated it.
