“Suffolk County Police Commissioner Richard Dormer’s request for sex workers to come forward with information related to the disappearance of colleagues is no doubt sincere. But casting police as the protectors of sex workers and reassuring the sex workers’ community, through a police spokesperson, that those who come forward “will only be arrested if they have been caught offering to have sex with a member of law enforcement or soliciting sex for money” is pretty cold comfort. Police may signify safety and protection to people whose activities aren’t criminalized, but people involved in sex work are more likely to have experienced officers as predators and steer clear.”
