slides: MA Cities and Towns With the Most Prostitution Arrests

Tuesday, October 07, 2014

 

In 2013, the state of Massachusetts arrested 920 people on prositution related charges, according to data released by the Massachusetts State Police.

Even more startling is that 70-percent of the arrests made were prostitutes rather than johns or pimps, signaling that while the arrests are being made, the demand for prostitutes is not being lowered at the same rate.

Although some cities handle prositution-related arrests well, arresting a high percentage of johns and pimps, other cities have extremely high percentages of women being arrested while the men involved with prostitution walk free.

Check out the slideshow below to see which Massachusetts towns and cities made the most arrests in 2013 and a break down of how many men and women were arrested.
