For all you peeps that are interested in the news...six Dominatrixes were busted yesterday for selling more than just a flogging and some ropework.A place in midtown Manhattan which i won't name was entered into by the NYPD and the six were carted off in handcuffs to jail for selling sex as well as their avowed profession.While sexual favors are frowned upon in most S&M Clubs,this place took things a step further and now all six will have to appear in court in July to face prostitution charges as they posted bail rather expediently after their arrest.There was no further comment on the arrests.

Thats strange ..... When I visit www.nypost.com and try searchign on the word 'Dominatrix' I onlky get 2 articles .....

http://www.nypost.com/seven/04012008/entertainment/whip_it__whip_it_good__104442.htm
A rather well rounded article that points out that pro-doms are NOT prostitutes and pointing out that dangerous and risky activity are the small minority. The overall tone of the article is very positive toward kink and paints BDSM as an ordnary activity that normal average people engage in.

http://www.nypost.com/seven/03312008/business/hopeless_hipsters_104333.htm
Just a short mention of the word dominatrix when describing an outfit worn by Jannet Jackson.

(Remind me again how the mainstream media always paints kink in a negative light?)

In fact, the only article I could find at all on any kind of 'prostitution ring' in new york was from last months Eliot Spitser case.

So even though there is no article, no name of the persons involved, no name of the business in question, no police report, no copy of the court records, and no indication that this event even took place at all, I am sure that isnt going to stop anyone from mindlessly repeating this little bit of ~news~ over and over and over and spreading the word to all their friends citing this as yet more 'proof' that kink as we know it is about to be destroyed totaly under the heavy handed crush of government oppression.

That made me giggle for some reason.

When you call up the NY Posts website the top news banner shows the main front page story, e.g this time the All
Clear story on the Bell Cops, at the left side of that picture (in the banner itself) it says top atories and lists the numbers 1 2 3 if you click on those they take you to the 3 major stories individually instead of having to wait for the banner to cycle through. The link for the BDSM/Prostitution bust was on the 3rd stories page (ratty hotel poisoned my cats) on the left hand side of the banner in the red section.

Thats odd, cause when I click on those little page-icons on the bottom left the third one takes me to the 'pet got sick at hotel' story ...... they must be using rotating articles depending on what IP you are comming from.

In any event, the articvle DOES exist despite my claims otherwise. So if you will excuse me now I am going to go crawl under a rock and die from a fatal overdose of embarasement.

I had no problem connecting.
Here, the cut and paste:
April 26, 2008 -- The naughty mistresses at one Midtown S&M club were being way too nice to their customers, court papers say. Six dominatrices from Rebecca's Hidden Chamber on West 31st Street were in Midtown Community Court yesterday, facing prostitution charges after allegedly offering more than just whippings and humiliation to some undercover cops. Elizabeth Brown, 27, Marilyn Kross, 34, Ashley Davitt, 24, Heather Cousins, 19, Olivia Black, 39, and Angela Torregoza, 28, were arraigned on misdemeanor prostitution charges and released on their own recognizance. The sextet couldn't be reached for comment, and their workplace was closed yesterday afternoon. The criminal complaint shows you couldn't beat their prices - each "agreed to engage in sexual conduct . . . to wit: sexual intercourse in exchange for $220." That's about 1/20 of what Ashley Dupre allegedly charged former Gov. Eliot Spitzer for the brief tryst that cost him his job. A former customer told The Post that Rebecca's Hidden Chamber was well known in the S&M community as one of the rare dungeons in the city where customers can persuade a mistress to have sex for money. That's a no-no at most S&M clubs, where customers can indulge in various fantasies perfectly legally as long as there's no sex for cash. "In most of the others, the sexuality is muted, but this place does a little bit extra for a little bit extra," said one married male customer who asked not to be identified. At the Hidden Chamber, "you can negotiate prices for different levels of intimacy," he said. "It's not advertised, but it's known." The club's Web site describes itself as a "polite dungeon . . . "fully equipped with the finest most modern fetish equipment and accoutrements." The site says it has more than two dozen whip-wielding women ready to make customers' fantasies come true - no matter what they are. That includes "Bondage and Domination, almost any Roleplay (we have remarkable actresses on staff who love roleplay sessions!), Fetish Exploration, Corporal Punishment - from light spanking to severe caning, CBT, Teasing and Denial, Foot and Leg Worship, Crossdressing and Forced Feminization, Medical Roleplay." Upstairs neighbor Steve Cooper, 63, says he's seen all kinds go into the Hidden Chamber - "Hasidic Jews, Jersey guys, wealthy people with limos waiting outside and young people in their 20s." "If you're wondering what it's like to live in a building where that's going on, it's annoying," he said. The mistresses are due back in court in July.

it was crappy when the Post put up their legal names... especially when you consider that they were busted and not actually convicted, the scene needs to ban together to protect Professionals and let P/people remain remain innocent until proven guilty.

in my understanding, R'sHC has a sterling reputation. having no personal experience with the place, my word means very little.
however, having worked at three different commercial dungeons and knowing what goes on in those places and knowing People that worked at the HC, i am appalled at the legal action that was taken against them. almost any other dungeon should have been raided first.
the Post is a fucking rag and always trying to stir up shit in the BDSM scene.
A/anyone that cares about alt lifestyle at all needs to boycott that piece of shit paper, because they will out Y/you in a heartbeat.
that article is just the latest with it's 'former customer' testimonial and lack of any real information about what the Dommes with some of the best reputations in the Pro scene allegedly did.
the article, along with those promoting it, make me sick.

at this time They need Y/your support, not more unfounded gossip.

Tough s***, as far as I'm concerned.  "Arrest records are public records. They may include detailed information about the person arrested, the incident leading to the arrest and the victim. These records can be closed if their release would endanger an ongoing investigation or public safety. If the person arrested is found innocent of the charges, he or she may ask to have the record sealed and claim they have never been arrested."

i was commenting on the filthy rag. thanks for your legal opinion.

the Post also gave the name of a man injured in a dungeon recently, and the name of his non-suspecting wife, luckily in another country and the town they were from. he was outed way beyond reason, the only thing they left out was his phone number practically. most BDSM activities are not illegal in NYC, so what criminal activity is the Post protecting you from, 1000 miles away?
are you going to say tough shit when a publication rubs your mother's nose in it?
do you want your coworkers and neighbors to know what you do in your free time?

Newcomers that actually believe you don’t buy sex from the other locations will of course come to the Palace of Pain now.  The Palace of Pain just got a boat load of free publicity didn't they?  Would be a shame if they close up now.
