Illinois Mayor Arrested In Prostitution Sting
The mayor of a town in Illinois was busted in an undercover prostitution investigation.
If you plan on holding a political office, it's always best to stay out of trouble. I guess this guy didn't get the memo.
According to daily-chronicle.com,
"The La Salle County Sheriff's office used a female informant posing as a prostitute named "Nicky" in a sting operation that led to charges against eight men."
"Those who have been issued notices to appear in court on charges of solicitation of a sex act include the mayor of Sandwich, a Putnam County public defender and a Peru hospital administrator."
"Solicitation of a sexual act is punishable by probation or up to a year in jail, and a maximum fine of $2,500."
Well, that's not going to look good for their "public figure" positions.
