Because one naughty murderer can ruin it for the rest of us, several state prosecutors have directed their ire at Craigslist hookers in the wake of the tranny-loving Craigslist killer Philip Markoff‘s recent arrest. A year before the highly publicized murder, Craigslist had already introduced strict measures to its erotic services section, requiring sex workers to cough up a credit card and an operational phone number, such as the land line to their methamphetamine-laden Holiday Inn hotel room.

A sheriff from Illinois says those measures are not going far enough. He recently filed a lawsuit against Craigslist for “facilitating prostitution,” and now attorneys general from several states are jumping aboard the cock-blocking wagon. But the prosecutors will not succeed in bringing down Craigslist hookers, no matter how fervently the competing prostitute-facilitator David Forrest prays at night. “Craigslist cannot be held liable, as a matter of clear federal law, for content submitted to the site by our users,” the company stated before the meeting.
