I have heard people say that prostitutes must continue to work, even after these five awful murders, to "put food on the table for their kids." This is untrue, no-one needs to resort to prostitution to have access to food or shelter for either themselves or their children - there is state-aid for this. It is reported that all five had a drug habit, as do 95% of all prostitutes in this country, and that is the real cause.
I am not being judgmental, I feel great sorrow for the women and their families. The real criticism and scorn should be for those men who use and abuse prostitutes. But let's be honest about the real causes of prostitution and not try to pass it off as a respectable career.
