As the Allied island-hopping campaign encircled Japan, thousands of Japanese soldiers were cut off from their command and were presumed killed-in-action. Faced with a desperate decision between dying in suicidal charges and going into hiding, most Japanese soldiers chose suicide. The holdouts, on the other hand, chose to live, even if that meant suffering deprivation, hardship and shame. Most of the holdouts gradually emerged from hiding during the late 1940s and 1950s.

Prostitution has often been called a victimless crime. After all, whose business is it if someone wants to pay for a little erotic pleasure? Unfortunately, drug use, robbery and disease can accompany that good time that someone paid for.
As we rush further into the 21st century, we’re finding that prostitution is far from victimless and history proves this. Usually it is the prostitutes themselves that are the victims; however, sometimes a murder is committed. Let the buyer beware. It might be bad for business, but occasionally prostitutes kill. The motives vary as much as the unfortunates who practice the world’s oldest profession. Amazon Exclusive! Order here! |
