New legislation that would increase
penalties for prostitution near city schools — inspired by the anger over the open sex trade happening near PS 6 in West Farms — is getting some push back by a
civil rights group that says the
stiffer penalties will only make it harder for prostitutes to get out of the lifestyle.
Noncompliance with the ADA, Fair Housing accessibility laws, and many others all carry
stiff financial
penalties,
civil fines and more — there is no room for assumptions.
