(Chuck Muth)<\/em> – Katelyn Newburg of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reported<\/a> recently that an underage girl was raped and robbed by a 27-year-old man, Dijan Anderson, outside the Bellagio Hotel on the Las Vegas Strip.<\/p>\n

The girl, reportedly under 16 years of age with autism and other developmental disabilities, \u201ctold a security guard at the hotel\u2019s north valet area that a man took her purse and punched her in the head because she refused to solicit sex for him.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe girl told officers she was on the Strip with other people when they were approached by a group of men, including Anderson, who asked her to solicit men for him,\u201d the RJ reported.\u00a0 \u201cThe girl \u2018said she wasn\u2019t going to participate and started to cry because she didn\u2019t like it,\u2019 the (police) report said.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAround 3:30 a.m., the girl and Anderson began walking through Bellagio; the girl told officers he then took her to a bushy area outside the casino and raped her, the report said.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ms. Newburg continued\u2026<\/p>\n

\u201cSurveillance footage showed that Anderson and the girl walked behind some bushes and that 20 minutes later the girl came back without her purse and a man was running from the area, the report said.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cLater that morning, surveillance footage showed Anderson speaking with a woman near the MGM Grand and hitting her multiple times. Bystanders try to help in the video, but Anderson \u2018chases them away\u2019 while appearing to hold a gun, the report said.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Horrific.<\/p>\n

But it can\u2019t be ignored that this assault occurred in the one county in Nevada, Clark (Las Vegas), where legal brothels are prohibited by state law.<\/p>\n

The Nevada Legislature has authorized a Brothel Study Committee to look into the employment conditions of women working in Nevada\u2019s legal brothels.<\/p>\n

But if legislators are truly interested in the health, safety and welfare of women in Nevada who work in the sex industry, they need to look at the dire and dangerous conditions faced by those who work where commercial sexual services are ILLEGAL.<\/p>\n

THAT\u2019S where most of the real problems are. THAT\u2019S where the real dangers lie.\u00a0 And ignoring them won\u2019t make them go away.<\/p>\n

Mr. Muth is president of Citizen Outreach, a limited-government grassroots advocacy organization, and government affairs counsel to the Nevada Brothel Association.\u00a0 His views are his own.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/span>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
