Need help /raided and computers seized

[RawAlex]

doublep, sorry, this is the first she has said about being in a buisness zone. The rest of the time she talks about "in her house" and special permits and whatnot. Until her post just now. honestly, I assumed it was the basement of her house. Nothing else to work from.

My comments aren't scare mongering in the slightest. It is just putting into play the reality of what people face. Most of us don't get hassled because we don't run commercially visible businesses, and most of us don't deal directly in providing physical services of (potentially) sexual nature to end clients. I have never had a surfer in my office (except possibly some of my friends, but I don't ask), and they certainly are not getting any physical services for money here.

Sex related activites + visitors + cash = prostitution in most "straight" people's minds. Most straight people also consider (incorrectly, from my understanding) that S&M / BDSM / domination is a sexual act. Therefore, they see prostitution as the end result. Getting someone to show up with cash in hand asking for a session during the raid is a nice classic touch.

Webwoman, I would "get the facts" except that you have been very, very, very soft on them. Let me start at the top:

"my home was raided by the local and state police"
"The town that i live in approved my home based internet adult business along with a studio that i shoot content and video for my site"
"imagine having to park your car in the front of a house thats being raided with 30 police cars a hugh forensic van parked in my driveway"
"When they did not find what they were looking for they decided to take my 4 computers cameras all my business files and both rooms of furniture that we use for our shoots"

I am using your words as presented.

What I am starting to see here is a story that is changing and morphing, and starting to make me think that we truly don't have anything like the whole story here.
