Is it safe to come out of hiding yet?

Just out of curiosity is it safe to come out to play yet?

Since the whole bust happen I feel like everyone is walking on egg shells and I'm dying to get back out

I feel that we will be on egg shell for the next decade.

You know it's barely been 5 weeks since this all started, right? As long as things take to develop a case, process paperwork, and push investigations forward, it hasn't been that long at all. You have to manage your own level of risk, but if you can't step away from a burning pile of felonies until the embers are even out... I think that kind of speaks for itself.

I would say if you are going to any of these places this soon, you are playing with fire and you are drawing yourself to a situation that is NOT smart. This would be the best time to avoid them and give it time.

Also, for those who had in the past called for boycotts to lower the prices.. this would be one hell of a time to be boycotting to try and regain the upper hand vs the studios while also thinking with the right head

From reading details here (and not privy to any other information) is (was) the investigation about a certain group of individuals or the whole AMP/Studio scene?

Not sure, but it is probably safe to assume that it is the whole studio scene.
You can probably assume they have a warrant to trace communications from any studio related devices. Which means they can probably trace your communications if you are intercepted. Which means that If you say something incrementing or imply money in exchange for goods and services a prosecuter could make the case that you were involved in soliciting and probably promoting prostitution.
Meanwhile onlyfans still is running. Go figure, be smart people.

They're always after the whole scene. The busts are for those where enough evidence is obtained, i.e., those that were not careful enough.

But the Law doesn't care about the Johns. It's almost impossible to make a case, too expensive, and doesn't shut any Spas. It is Owners and Leasor's of property they are after. Providers are not busted either, the poor babies are obviously trafficked (massive tongue in cheek sarcasm), and are let go with a pamphlet describing ways to exit their situation.

Is there any history of this sort of in-depth operation? Wasn't the last major issue when they took down that studio running ads on bedpage and what they did was keep the ads up for a couple more days to catch some johns. Unfortunately, many of whom probably thought it was safe to see that particular studio again.

I agree with Capital. It’s probably going to take a few more months before they get enough evidence for the next round of stings. Unless you’re actually on site when the busts goes down they’re probably not going to come after you. If you don’t have much to lose being caught in the scandal (business, marriage, high profile social status) you can probably visit the studios again.

Very well said. Everyone needs to do their own personal risk assessment if you decide to return (or keep going) to the studios and AMP's. It's been pretty laughable to see guys on here be judgmental / preachy towards the guys that do decide to continue hobbying in the current climate. We're all grown men here.....do we really someone on a whore message board to tell us it's risky to see an escort?!? "Gee thanks.....I had no idea that I could be arrested if I decide to see an escort!!!!"

Yeah; everyone pretty much on point

At this time I think its best to lay low for several months at least.
