Vermont Prostitutes Are Just One Mouse Click Away
South Burlington, Vermont

This week a young lady who placed suggestive ads on Craigslist pled not guilty to the prohibited act of prostitution. It’s a crime very rarely charged in Vermont.

“Unless you have a third party witness that somehow identifies a problem and reports it, you wouldn’t know about it,” South Burlington Police Chief Trevor Whipple explained.

Police say it was witness complaints about heavy traffic of men to room 137 at the Liberty Suites motel that led to her arrest with one of her johns. Police say he confessed he paid her $200 for sex.

And police learned that prostitution was no longer so rare in Vermont.

“Certainly by looking at postings on Craigslist that there was more of it going on,” Whipple said.

She was one of dozens of Vermont women offering erotic services in and around Chittenden County on the website Craigslist.

Her ad notified potential customers to be ready for a good time because she is a girl of many talents and everything is possible in your time with her.

We called several of the women offering erotic services on Craigslist. We wondered if they would openly offer explicit sexual services. Some did.

Tiffany: “This is Tiffany.”

Reporter Brian Joyce: “Hi Tiffany. I’m calling to inquire exactly what services you’d be providing and what the price would be?”

Tiffany: “Well, pretty much anything you want.”

Joyce: “Like what?”

Tiffany: “Anything you want.”

Joyce: “You mean sexually?”

Tiffany: “Yes.”

Some of the women were suspicious but made it clear they knew they were breaking the law.

Amber: “You’re not a cop are you?”

Joyce: “No, I’m not a cop.”

Chittenden County residents we spoke with say it’s a quality of life issue that needs to be nipped in the bud.
