Reviews Submitted as Evidence in L&T Case
Doing some research in connection with landlord tenant dispute that led to filing of two civil cases, learned:
+ Provider used a private apartment as her incall location. Provider appears to have argued (in absence of any written lease) that her use of the space was a "legal tenancy" that gave her rights of possession. If evidence is submitted to court or jury, the ads, pictures and reviews will make it clear how the space was used. Appears the case was filed by the prostitute/provider against the 'landlord.'
+ Scores of reviews were posted online, several include descriptions of the incall location (address, details of the space itself). Ads include statements such as "google my number for reviews" and "reviews speak for themselves." The reviews may have helped provider get business, but may not be so helpful in context of LT dispute?
+ In several of the "ads" posted by the provider, pictures included showed details of the space (making a connection between the provider and the specific incall location used)
+ Possible that the photos and reviews will be used as 'evidence' (that space was used for illegal activity); or the reviews will be used to get the plaintiff to drop the case (against the alleged landlord) for fear of embarrassment, outing or exposure to criminal liability?
Local law enforcement appears to have taken notice. Whether or not they attend any hearings or trials, and if so what they might or might not do with the information (that space was used for advertising/providing) are open questions.
Will attempt to follow this and provide updates.
