No, I've been trying to get her off get her off of 'em, 'cause she was smoking crack when she first came out, and I told her, she's gonna do that, then I'm not gonna have nothing to do with her.

Right.
Made contact, find out who it is.
She's got a warrant for her arrest for prostitution After she gave us a fake name.
After she offers a false name to law enforcement.
That's right.
And, uh, find paraphernalia in the room on her admission that it was in the room, and that's kind of where we're at.
Right now we're going to do the paperwork on her, get her down to booking, and, uh, give a few nice, kind words of advice to the gentlemen who was spending time with her.
I got no charges on him, so he can come back and enjoy the room he rented for the night, but he'll enjoy the room by himself.
When you talk about working in Vegas, it's as unique as you can get.

Okay.
Thank you very much.
Is there anything illegal in here? Anything I need to be concerned with? No.
What do you do for a living? Um nothing.
What are you doing tonight? I was about to go to the store and then go home.
Is that right? Yeah.
And you've been arrested for what? Prostitution.
Okay.
Is that what you do? Well, I used to, 'cause I have HIV.
You have HIV? Yes.
And you're positive? Do you have full-blow aids, or are you just HIV? I have HIV.
Okay.
How long have you been doing prostitution? Uh, since I've been 15.
Yeah.
And how many times have you been arrested? A lot.
What did you go to penitentiary for? Um, felony for prostitution.
Felony? Okay.
Okay.
Just hang out here for a second.
Okay, so what are you out here? If you've been to prison for it, what are you out here doing it again for? You got no business out here doing it, right? Yeah.
You see what I'm saying? There's absolutely no reason for you to be out here doing that, right? I was I-I just left a friend's house, and then, I'm I was going to the store, and then I was going home.
Okay, but I guarantee you, if a dude pulled up and was trying to get-get with you, you'd be you'd be willing to do it, right? I'm not going to lie to you.
'Cause it's all about the money? Yes.
All right? You tell someone when they stop you that you got HIV? Yeah.
You're gonna tell a trick that you got HIV? Yes.
I'll be with you in a minute, all right? We didn't catch him doing anything illegal as in reference to prostitution-related, but we caught him walking in the street, all right? He's walking down the middle of the street.
Um, so that gives us a reason to stop him and talk to him, and as we, um, originally figured out, it's probably going to be a prostitute, and he openly admitted that if someone wanted someone tried to pick him up right now that he would be willing to do it, so we're gonna run him and see what we got, and, uh, I probably will put a call into vice and let them know that he's out here and out here doing stuff, so unfortunate we didn't catch him haling a car today.
Is this all the money you made just today? It's 20, 30 35.
About 45 bucks? How long you been out here today? I don't know.
You understand the felony prostitution, why you went to prison, right? Yes.
Do you know why that why that was? Um what you mean? Well, because you obviously Did you get picked up by vice? And because you have HIV, right? That made you eligible to go to prison, you know, because if you're out here, and you have tested positive for HIV, and you're picking up tricks and thank God it was an undercover then guess what? That was a saving day for us.
Obviously going to prison, you didn't learn your lesson.
Soon as my partner's done, he's gonna give you a ticket and send you on your way, all right? If I see you down here in the next hour, and you do something wrong again, you won't be getting a ticket.
Okay.
Understood? Yes.
I don't want you down here.
I don't want you out on the street at all.
But I can't stop you from going anywhere except for down here.
Down here, I can put you in jail.
And you know, if I put you in jail, you're good for 24 hours.
That's 24 hours, I'll have you off the street.
You follow me? Yeah.
Okay.
All right? You just got a huge break.
Okay.
All right? Okay.
It's a good thing you didn't get picked up again, 'cause you'd be going back to prison, all right? All right.
Take your stuff and go.
Thank you for your time.
He's been out two months, and he's already back doing it again.
As we looked at the money, he did some work today, but we didn't catch him doing that work.
But we will in the future.
I've got him at gunpoint.
At gunpoint, Cover is code three.
All suspects are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
I've been here nine years, it'll be ten in october.
How I see myself in ten years from now, I'd kinda like to promote to sergeant and work detectives for a couple years, and then eventually come back out and work in the field as a supervisor.

So he thinks you're Bailey? Yeah.
Why would you tell him that? Because I have a warrant, and I didn't want anybody to know my name.
Oh, okay, okay.
The warrant just came out on the 12th of may.
I know, but I've been I've When I first met him was when I originally got discharged, and I was in trouble.
What was it for? Prostitution.
Okay.

Whoever it is, they have to leave a message, okay? Come on out to the patrol car.
Watch your step here.
No, I've been trying to get her off get her off of 'em, 'cause she was smoking crack when she first came out, and I told her, she's gonna do that, then I'm not gonna have nothing to do with her.
She went to that drug program, she got help.
She came out and she was good, and then now, she started messing up.
And I don't want to see her like that.
Do you know how she makes a living? Um no.
Do you know what she's been arrested for in the past? If you know her like you say you do? Yes, she's been arrested for prostitution.
Okay.
And, uh Do you even know her real name? It's Carrie Something like that.
I don't know.
Do you see how that? I'm kind of worried about your well-being if that's her prior arrest and what she does, and if she's still shooting and stuff like that, and you're spending time with her.
Right.
You see what I'm saying? Yes, sir.
You know.
It's not good for you.
Uh-huh.
Okay, just hang out right here on the curb for me, okay? Okay.
All right? Sit here? Yeah, just right there on the curb.

Come to find out, they've got a complaint on them already for the same activities of in and out of the room with different persons, uh, from the security company, or security guard that works on the property.
Right.
Made contact, find out who it is.
She's got a warrant for her arrest for prostitution After she gave us a fake name.
After she offers a false name to law enforcement.
That's right.
And, uh, find paraphernalia in the room on her admission that it was in the room, and that's kind of where we're at.
Right now we're going to do the paperwork on her, get her down to booking, and, uh, give a few nice, kind words of advice to the gentlemen who was spending time with her.
I got no charges on him, so he can come back and enjoy the room he rented for the night, but he'll enjoy the room by himself.

Okay.
Thank you very much.
Is there anything illegal in here? Anything I need to be concerned with? No.
What do you do for a living? Um nothing.
What are you doing tonight? I was about to go to the store and then go home.
Is that right? Yeah.
And you've been arrested for what? Prostitution.
Okay.
Is that what you do? Well, I used to, 'cause I have HIV.
You have HIV? Yes.
And you're positive? Do you have full-blow aids, or are you just HIV? I have HIV.
Okay.
How long have you been doing prostitution? Uh, since I've been 15.
Yeah.
And how many times have you been arrested? A lot.
What did you go to penitentiary for? Um, felony for prostitution.
Felony? Okay.
Okay.
Just hang out here for a second.
Okay, so what are you out here? If you've been to prison for it, what are you out here doing it again for? You got no business out here doing it, right? Yeah.
You see what I'm saying? There's absolutely no reason for you to be out here doing that, right? I was I-I just left a friend's house, and then, I'm I was going to the store, and then I was going home.
Okay, but I guarantee you, if a dude pulled up and was trying to get-get with you, you'd be you'd be willing to do it, right? I'm not going to lie to you.
'Cause it's all about the money? Yes.
All right? You tell someone when they stop you that you got HIV? Yeah.
You're gonna tell a trick that you got HIV? Yes.
I'll be with you in a minute, all right? We didn't catch him doing anything illegal as in reference to prostitution-related, but we caught him walking in the street, all right? He's walking down the middle of the street.
Um, so that gives us a reason to stop him and talk to him, and as we, um, originally figured out, it's probably going to be a prostitute, and he openly admitted that if someone wanted someone tried to pick him up right now that he would be willing to do it, so we're gonna run him and see what we got, and, uh, I probably will put a call into vice and let them know that he's out here and out here doing stuff, so unfortunate we didn't catch him haling a car today.
Is this all the money you made just today? It's 20, 30 35.
About 45 bucks? How long you been out here today? I don't know.
You understand the felony prostitution, why you went to prison, right? Yes.
Do you know why that why that was? Um what you mean? Well, because you obviously Did you get picked up by vice? And because you have HIV, right? That made you eligible to go to prison, you know, because if you're out here, and you have tested positive for HIV, and you're picking up tricks and thank God it was an undercover then guess what? That was a saving day for us.
Obviously going to prison, you didn't learn your lesson.
Soon as my partner's done, he's gonna give you a ticket and send you on your way, all right? If I see you down here in the next hour, and you do something wrong again, you won't be getting a ticket.
Okay.
Understood? Yes.
I don't want you down here.
I don't want you out on the street at all.
But I can't stop you from going anywhere except for down here.
Down here, I can put you in jail.
And you know, if I put you in jail, you're good for 24 hours.
That's 24 hours, I'll have you off the street.
You follow me? Yeah.
Okay.
All right? You just got a huge break.
Okay.
All right? Okay.
It's a good thing you didn't get picked up again, 'cause you'd be going back to prison, all right? All right.
Take your stuff and go.
Thank you for your time.
He's been out two months, and he's already back doing it again.
As we looked at the money, he did some work today, but we didn't catch him doing that work.
But we will in the future.
I've got him at gunpoint.
At gunpoint, Cover is code three.
