Yeah and cop is just 14.6 per 100k. Prostitute is 14 times more deadly. Thanks for putting your life at risk to make us happy.

These deaths (and the people they interviewed) must be street walkers because it actually says "the average prostitute gets physically (but non-lethally) attacked approximately once a month" and I don't know any working girls that fall into those statistics. I'd really like to know how many working girls are killed daily. It's hard for my mathematically challenged self to appreciate or understand how often is 204 out of 100k. Is this 1 murder a day in America? 2 murders a day in America? I really have no clue :-(

(According to recent statistics, the death rate for prostitutes in the U.S. is 204 out of every 100,000.)

Danger:
Prostitution is one of the most dangerous professions in the country; worse than Alaskan fisherman, or loggers, or oil rig workers. According to recent statistics, the death rate for prostitutes in the U.S. is 204 out of every 100,000. For fishermen, it is 129 out of every 100,000. Also, the average prostitute gets physically (but non-lethally) attacked approximately once a month. One reason for these numbers is that prostitution is illegal in every state (even Nevada where it is only allowed in brothels in certain parts of the state). When prostitutes face violence they have nowhere to turn without being arrested themselves. Consequently, prostitutes are an easy target, and even serve as the butt of jokes about violence and murder on TV shows and movies.
