[The Plumb Beach Rest Stop is covered in used condoms]
Last August, as in last year, the National Park Service arrested & summonsed about 80 men for sex related crimes(either propositioning, in the act, etc.).
The NPS conducted undercover operations to entrap proposition people. Apparently it worked well.
In the process they also snagged a few fishermen, whom were there after hours, in the month long sweep whom are now in the process of defending themselves in court. There were many others who just paid a fine and/or accepted a deal.
Just to put this whole thing in perspective. The arrests may have something to do with the threat that the National Parks Service would lose its funding in our area. So to justify their existence they arrested more people in on month than they did all of the previous year.
Hopefully everyone there will all sing kumbaya when the Michael Sandy Memorial is erected.
[More "Coverage"]
[Apparently they didn't read the sign.]
I guess the only positive thing to be said about this is that they're practicing safe sex…on the other hand, ewwww.

WOW six months later, nothing like being current with the news. Was the Pony Express on vacation or caught up in traffic on the Belt ?
Two questions immediately come to mind,
This is Gerristsen Beach news, why ? Was someone caught ?
and
The headline reads, rights violated? No mention of rights anywhere, so what was the deal ? I can't believe that the feds took the time, manpower and money to do a street prostitution operation. You know dam well no one caught in is going to fight it and have their actions displayed in public
