Camberra Brothel |
They just don’t care what happens to people, they perceive as “junky whores”, as long as they can f### them. If you do a search under the Downer murders you will read all those comments about him being violent to Donna33. Strange enough perhaps it is true as Donna33 has not commented since those posts were made.
Brothels were defined in section 231 of the Queensland Criminal Code in 1897, which explicitly defined 'bawdy houses' in 1901. A further act relating to venereal disease adult services fyshwick control was the Health Act Amendment Act 1911 (2 Geo. V. No. 26). Solicitation was an offence under Clause 132E, and could lead to a fine or imprisonment.
The prosecution read several statements from Grey's victims on Thursday, with many pleading for Chief Justice Helen Murrell to sentence him to a long term of additional imprisonment. On Thursday, he pleaded guilty to an additional count of transporting the underage girl for sex work. Grey maintains he is not guilty of the rape and indecency charges.
The suburbs of King's Cross in Sydney and Islington in Newcastle have been traditional centres of prostitution. New South Wales legalises street prostitution, but community groups in those locations have occasionally lobbied for re-criminalisation. NSW was founded in 1788 and was responsible for Tasmania until 1825, Victoria until 1851 and Queensland until 1859. It inherited much of the problems of port cities, penal colonies, and the gender imbalance of colonial life. Initially there was little specific legislation aimed at prostitution, but prostitutes could be charged under vagrancy provisions if their behaviour drew undue attention.
She said she had seen two older men and a younger man dropping girls off regularly at the premises. Another neighbour said when the brothel first opened, it had its windows broken. Following that incident, she said owners puts screens over the windows for security. Anyone who enters or leaves the premises without lawful purpose will have committed an offence. The brothel, located in a weatherboard house in Skipton Street, has been operating “for months” according to neighbours. It was at the end of that time that the woman said she turned to see the condom on the floor.
You may want to legitimaise it as a career choice for people, but you are in the minority, and I think misguided. A long time ago, a friend came to me because she was having problems with her teenage daughter who had a heroin addiction. She was worried about the much older boy friend, who kept phoning. The family where frustrated and distraught by the whole situation. Then one night the boyfriend turns up and takes her from the home.
I know first hand exactly from a working girl who was in the industry for years the lifestyle, easy money, drugs, friends who come and go in that industry and the list goes on but you have pretty much covered much of it in your posts. Simon Corbell has in my opinion, taken an unusual step in commenting on the ongoing investigation of the death of Janine Cameron. (See today’s Canberra Times, p7, “A-G defends brothel operators over death”) To me, this shows a level of naivety that a man in his position should be above.
None of the three businesses are on a list, obtained by the Mercury, of nine Wollongong City Council-approved sex services. LOCAL councils and the State Government have failed to effectively use laws passed 12 months ago to crack down on illegal brothels, the former tax office auditor and legal brothel lobbyist, Chris Seage, says. What I think you may be asking is how common are drugs used by owners to recruit and retain sex worker’s. It’s certainly not all, so I wouldn’t say it goes hand in hand. Lets not forget that at times too there are lonely people out there that visit brothels who’s partners have passed away, are unable to receive sex from anyone and also lonely people who just want to chat to a female for company.
Owners and managers of sex services businesses with three or more sex workers must obtain a suitability certificate from the Commissioner of Consumer Affairs. The criminalisation of sex works in WA has been a topic of controversy, as it has been found that Perth brothels and street sex workers , have the lowest health and safety levels, according to Perth Now. Unlike NSW, Victoria has somewhat stricter laws governing sex work.
The Australian Capital Territory primarily follows a legalisation or licensing model for sex work. Queensland uses a legalisation or licensing model to regulate sex work. "Are we safe to work in Australia? The system is failing us, not taking our work, our life, our safety seriously."

Street prostitution was controlled by the Vagrancy Act 1902 (sec. 4 ) enabling a woman to be arrested as a 'common prostitute'. This was strengthened by an amendment of the Police Offences Act 1908, which also prohibited living on the earnings. In the October 2012 elections the opposition Liberals campaigned on a platform to oppose allowing more than one sex worker to use a premise in suburban areas but were not successful in preventing a further term of the ALP Green alliance. The legal situation was reviewed again with a Standing Committee on Justice and Community Safety's inquiry into the ACT Prostitution Act 1992, following the death of a 16-year-old girl, Janine Cameron, from a heroin overdose in a brothel in 2008.
