Scene Classifieds Customer Busted for Alleged "Rub 'n' Tug"

It is well-known that the last few pages of the Nashville Scene are bastions of purity and generalized wholesomeness. You won't, for instance, find scintillating pictures of lingerie-clad, buxom blonds, or, for that matter, "twinks" with washboard abs.

Ok, so that's not really true. At all. But they simply want to engage you in intelligent conversation. Seriously.

In fact, we're on such an elevated moral pedestal that a massage therapist who advertises with us stresses that said services are "NON-EROTIC." But that's not entirely accurate. At least that's what the police are saying.

Veronica Wright, 61, placed the ad to the right in this week's edition of the Scene. Metro Nashville Police are saying the "Complete Stress Relief" advertised didn't mean only deep-tissue massage. Wright was arrested Tuesday and charged with allegedly promoting prostitution.

What follows is perhaps the most entertaining police affidavit I've ever had the pleasure of reading:

"Once inside, she directed him to a rear room where a massage table was. She then requested for the (Confidential Informant) to get undressed and he got naked. The defendant then began to perform a massage on the CI and she then asked him if he wanted a "hand-release" (manual masturbation) for an additional $100, and without saying anything she began to perform an act of manual masturbation on the CI. Your affiant and other officers were able to listen to the conversation of the CI and those around the CI as they took place live due to a transmitter the CI had in his possession."

Please, Pith readers, don't burn up the police lines all at once with inquiries like, "How does one go about becoming a CI?" They have drunks to cuff.

And don't call that number above, 'cause Pith is going to go out on a limb and say she probably can't return your call. For now, anyway.

The real question is--if he was naked, where was this recording and transmitting device?!

Ha, that's dude's orgasm sounds were on tape, and the cops were listening. Cops are pervs.

Aunt B - he was probably asked to squat and cough afterwards

Anonymous, that was my thought. Don't they usually get CIs by letting minor criminals off the hook? Like "If you wear this wire to your next drug deal, we won't arrest you for this 3 lbs of pot."?
So, what exactly was a guy doing where he was like "Okay, fine, getting naked and getting a handjob while wearing a wire that may or may not be shoved up my butt so that all the police can listen is better than being arrested for..."?
One wonders.

Aunt B, apart from potential rectal microphones, what part of that assignment isn't awesome???

The part were you contract an STD

An STD from a "hand-release" is unlikely, not impossible but pretty far down on the list of risky behavior.
I just would think though that just the offer of exchange of money for a handjob would be enough for arrest here, but for some reason it sounds like the CI (and the cops listening) wanted to make sure he did a thorough investigation and stuck it out until the end. Way to take one for the team!

Hargrove, I didn't know you had a thing for handjobs from 61-year-old prostitutes. Now I know what to get you for your birthday next year.

Yeah, any kind of handjob STD is probably going to be wart-related.

The potential rectal microphone AND the whole Metro police department and a judge and whoever is there for the trial getting to listen in on it?
I don't know.
Maybe I'm just bashful.

That's an exhibitionist's wet dream. Not that I'm one of those weirdos, or anything.

Just wait till Metro starts outfitting CIs with ball gags and leather harnesses.

The Nashville Scene running ads for prostitutes...you "journalists" must be very proud.
What a disgrace.
