Alice Little (30) from the Moonlite Bunny Ranch in Lyon County in the state of Nevada is considered the highest paid prostitute in the United States: in 2018 she earned around one million dollars, the equivalent of about 892,000 francs.
She can only dream of such income right now – there have been dead pants on her bed since March. For her and her colleagues, the source of income is water.
“Arbitrary and capricious” decision
Due to the corona virus, numerous stores and businesses have been closed in the US state of Nevada. Including the sex trade. The initiator: Governor Steve Sisolak (66). While some businesses are now allowed to resume operations, sex workers still have to give up their income.
As the “Toronto Sun” reports, prostitute Alice Little has brought charges against the state. His request: to reopen brothels or organize home offices for prostitutes. In the suit, he writes that the governor’s “arbitrary and capricious” decision to keep all brothels closed violates his rights.
Home office for prostitutes
“Since the brothels closed, sex workers have been financially devastated. We try to make ends meet. Some sex workers, including myself, have focused on making money through online platforms like OnlyFans. “
Other sex workers would have no choice but to practice prostitution illegally in Las Vegas and Reno, where prostitution is a criminal offense, without the safety and health measures that legal brothels provide. “It really is a disaster.”
Reply in 30 days
To cover legal costs, which even the highest paid prostitutes in America can no longer afford due to lost sales, she now relies on donations from the GoFundMe website. Over 6,900 Swiss francs have already been collected.
“So far, the response has been overwhelmingly positive, as sex workers, clients and other generous people have started donating. It is very comforting and inspiring to know that Nevada sex workers are supported during these uncertain times. “
On November 19, the court ordered the Attorney General to respond to Little’s claims within 30 days. (my I)
