NEVADA INTERNAL AFFAIRS LETTER

Jody Williams www.sexworkersanonymous.com Email – sexworkrecovery@yahoo.com (702) 468-4529 Internal Affairs for Nevada Via fax and emai Dear Sirs: Back in 1988 – I did a Sally Jesse Raphael show where I appeared against Joe Conforte, the previous owner of the Mustang Ranch brothel. He brought with him four prostitutes who worked at the ranch – and for an hour the audience heard this was a “victimless crime” and how much “money they were making”. The purpose of the show was Joe was trying to get his brothels expanded into California and outside of the small rural communities that these legal brothels operate out of in Nevada spread across the state. When the camera was off – I had one of these women run up to me in the dressing room begging for help to escape. She claimed she had been drugged, then placed on a charter plane at gunpoint (there's a landing strip at the ranch), where she was told to say what she said “or else”. Her fear was because she

Dear Mr. Husted: Here are a few posts I've made about Nevada's state of affairs with respect to sex trafficking today and money they've received to do something to help the victims. http://traffickingandprostitutionservices.blogspot.com/2015/10/why-we-dont-have-northern-nevada.html http://traffickingandprostitutionservices.blogspot.com/2015/10/internal-affairs-in-nevada.html http://traffickingandprostitutionservices.blogspot.com/2015/09/las-vegas-metro-vic-vigna-karen-hughes.html Nevada's last attorney general - http://traffickingandprostitutionservices.blogspot.com/2015/09/catherine-cortez-masto.html http://traffickingandprostitutionservices.blogspot.com/2015/08/code-red-alert-for-sex-workers-in-nevada.html I'm the founder of the modern day sex trafficking movement itself, and I moved to Nevada in 1996 to get help to victims there who weren't able to get help because of the unique state of affairs there because of the legal brothels
