94-Year Old Didn&;t SolicitHooker
By encinoman
In an ugly case of police entrapment, justice has finally been done, if late:
&;The undercover Manatee County Sheriff&;s Office detective on the street corner that afternoon in November took 30 steps to go chat with Milio&; The woman opened his passenger side door and leaned inside&;.&;Do you want to party tonight?&; the woman asked Milio.
Manatee County Judge George K. Brown Jr. ruled&;&;This particular 93-year-old man was encouraged and/or enticed to proceed with the police officer&;s direction of conversation,&; Brown wrote.
Now Milio, 94, can be admitted to the assisted-living home. He suffers from dementia and apparently they didn&;t want to take him if he was guilty.
The entrapment here is disturbing.
But what if he did actually solicit a prostitute? Honestly, why is it a crime to want to feel a sexual response at his (or any) age and be willing to pay someone to achieve it?
