SA police crackdown

The ABC is reporting a crackdown by South Australian police that seems to be motivated by the threat decriminalisation poses for corrupt (?) police influence in the sexual services industry.

"Police told the committee that their priorities in policing sex work was on organised crime, drug trafficking, child abuse, and sexual servitude, but conceded under questioning that "very few" charges related to those priorities."

"Potentially SAPOL are worried. They are potentially worried that the decriminalisation bill is going to pass through Parliament, and that they're going to be stripped of some of the power that they currently have as gatekeepers of the sex industry."

I agree, it has been really bad in S.A this last couple of years. But SAPOL have a long history of been bad to sex workers in S.A. That is why Adelaide has such a huge cottage industry.
