Three individuals have been arrested on charges of operating a “high-end brothel network” in Massachusetts and Virginia with a clientele that included elected officials, military officers and government contractors with security clearances, the Justice Department announced Wednesday.
Regardless of whether someone was trafficked, folks in positions of power chosing* to disregard the law is itself an issue.

It shouldn't. But if elected officials are breaking the law instead of fixing it, that is bad.

Not really.
I'd give 0 shits if people in 'positions of power' smoked marijuana while it was illegal.
Heck, I'd support them for their civil disobedience!
