Do You Know Where Your Husband Is?

In an effort to stop prostitution and clean up some of Escambia County's less desirable neighborhoods, sheriff's deputies in Escambia County, Florida, will soon be informing women about their spouse's unethical and illegal behavior.

Sheriff David Morgan will send out letters to wives of men who have been charged with soliciting prostitution. The unusual law enforcement tactic is meant to embarrass, humiliate and discourage the "John" from buying sex off the nearest street corner. Women we spoke to like the idea.

"It'll embarrass them but they deserve it fully," says Cheryl Reeves. "You go out messing with other women, you'll come home with all kinds of diseases. I'm all for it."

The idea of sending out letters to wives also has the approval of the local health department.

"We have high rates of sexually transmitted diseases," says Dr. John Lanza, director of the Escambia Co. Health Dept. "This initiative would help us in lowering those rates and it's good for public health and it's an interesting way of doing things."
