Police Departments' Policies on Street Prostitution Examined

Two ASU Center for Problem‑Oriented Policing articles raise questions about how police departments handle street prostitution. They ask what the current departmental policy is, how prosecutors approach prostitution‑related offenses, and what typical sentences are given to convicted individuals.

The pieces provide no concrete answers or data, focusing instead on prompting further inquiry into law‑enforcement and prosecutorial practices concerning street prostitution.
