How Often Does HJJ Get Busted?

Hey guys,

So I am relatively new to the hobby but I have been hobbying A LOT over the past year or so.

However, the recent HJJ bust somewhat worries me. My question is: Is this kind of big news that will change the landscape of HJJ or is this a pretty common/once-in-a-while occurrence over there that is just part of the territory?

For those of you that have been at this longer than me, does this typically affect the field of providers?

In my limited time span/view thus far I have had one or two good reviewed providers, not on ECCIE, but on BP say they are not taking new customers currently. I really have never heard of this, especially via voice over the phone. I think it makes everyone a bit more skidish.

Know the boundaries, rules, and keep your head up and eyes open and you should be fine.

I have noticed that areas with a high concentration of spa's rub and tug places tend to get hit more frequent. SW Houston area seems to get a pass though but then again that area has a high Asian/Chinese/Korean population..

but the spa's on 1960 that got raided recently are fairly close to each other, and other tenants will complain.

Might get more discussion here in co-ed.

this raid was targeting a pimp that was not paying income tax, was committing fraud, and possibly "distributing".....

your average rub n tug lady in hjj is not quite that caliber of target.

HJJ are small fruit hanging compared to the bigger players in town that get more traffic and know that pay-outs to LE is necessary to do business in Houston,,,Most of the whores that work in those subsets of the hobby aren't that attractive, don't have good IOP, are truly trafficked, don't have good skills, and are sketchy all around,,,The loss of HJJ is no real loss,,,Most of the Johns that play frequently the right way haven't even heard of those places for good reason. They suck.

Not as much as it should be...

The Office Pimp thought he was above it all, the other pimps, the whores, the government, and everything else,,,He's a civilian wannabe that got his ass checked and he will pay dearly for his arrogance when sentencing comes around.

High concentration areas get more attention because it's easy to find them and pick them out in the collection,,,LE doesn't have to do too much work,,,1960 gets targeted because it's so close to whiteyville where people give a shit about their property value,,,The Ones off of SW is located in the hood where people don't have much power or say in the matter and are a bit more laid back.

The word is out that LE is doing more stings,,,We have the NCAA crap going on in Houston and also it's close to summertime when city thinks of itself as a tourist place and so LE presence has to be stronger,,,You have to wait and see right now but eventually it's going to be business as usual.

They think they can go anywhere and put a spa sign up and make money like they can do in the ethnic sections of town.
