And ultimately they would need to prove that the venue could be 'reasonably suspected' to be an illegal brothel, and that you knew that.
A few years ago I had some issues with backpain, and went to see a very good ML in a shop in the Redcliffe/NL area on a regular basis. Back then I could have sworn that the place was legit. Only when I found this forum, did I realize that it was not that legit.... lol.
So if you are afraid of a getting-caught-in-a-bust scenario, you basically can't go to ANY massage shop, except for strictly remedial/physiotherapy type of places with licenced therapists.
But you're right, mud does stick.....and depending on career/family/social environment, some people are more vulnerable than others.
I, myself, fortunately don't need to care about any of this anymore - and I would fight any BS charges with full force.
