In other news today, there were seven defendants indicted on various charges for running a prostitution ring with the business name of Room Service Entertainment. New York AG Cuomo claims in the press release that the business only operated on Craigslist, but then admits that initially the business also "advertised in The Village Voice and other local papers." Obviously it was the cost of advertising that led the company to the internet classified ad giant, Craigslist. It sounds like the pursuit of Craigslist has too much to do with the low to nothing cost of advertising on the website when we reflect on Cuomo's recent attacks of the company in the news and the headliner for this press release: ATTORNEY GENERAL CUOMO ANNOUNCES TAKEDOWN OF PROSTITUTION RING OPERATING ON CRAIGSLIST.
As for the seven defendants that face up to twenty-five years in prison for their alleged parts in this business: Not to worry, the NY AG's Office usually settles for time served and probation when you take the plea deal. The Manhattan Madam, Kristin Davis, can attest to that.
