A Lee County Circuit Judge was one of six men arrested in a prostitution sting on Friday.
Investigators allege the 64-year-old man was going to pay $300 for sex. He is accused of calling a prostitute to meet him at a Naples hotel, but he actually met with an undercover officer who was working a prostitution sting.
Police say the judge, along with five other men, was charged with solicitation of prostitution. He was apparently the only one of the six who resisted arrest.
Another judge has been assigned to his cases while he faces criminal charges.
If you have been busted for prostitution, you are not alone. According to the FBI, the average number of prostitution arrests each year in the United States is 77,485. Florida takes a top spot each year in the states with the highest number of prostitution arrests.
If you have been arrested for prostitution, you need to seek legal help as soon as possible. The consequences of a conviction are not something you want looming over your head, especially if you have a high profile job. Just because you were arrested, does not mean you are guilty. There are many possible defenses that can be applied depending on your situation.
