Washington lawmakers consider bill to make patronizing a prostitute a felony

Washington state lawmakers are considering a bill that would elevate the crime of "patronizing a prostitute" from a misdemeanor to a felony, in an effort to combat the rampant sex trade and related crimes in areas like Aurora Avenue. Residents near Aurora Avenue have reported frequent gunfire and turf wars among pimps, with prostitutes regularly walking the area. Prosecutors from Pierce and King counties, along with a Seattle police detective, have urged state lawmakers to enact legislation to address the issue. -------------------------------------------------- For more on the lead story: https://komonews.com/news/local/lawma... _______________ Stay up to date with our social media: KOMO News on Facebook:   / komonews   KOMO News on Twitter:   / komonews   KOMO News on Instagram:   / komo4   KOMO News on TikTok:   / komo4seattle   Subscribe to KOMO on YouTube:    / @komonews   Watch more top local news stories:    • Видео   For all of the day’s top local and national news, visit http://www.komonews.com/ Watch our live newscasts and other live video at https://komonews.com/watch Download our iOS App: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/komo-...
