Susan Finkelstein Is Wondering About The Integrity Of The Police

October 28, 2009 at 1:46 pm by  

Philadelphia - That was the Facebook status of Susan Finkelstein after her arrest on charges of soliciting prostitution and related misdemeanors. Married with children, current Penn grad student in liberal arts and onetime assistant PR director at the University of Pennsylvania, Susan posted an ad on Craigslist.com: “DESPERATE BLONDE NEEDS WS TIX” (read the ad here) that simply states “Diehard Phillies fan — gorgeous tall buxom blonde — in desperate need of two World Series tickets. Price negotiable — I’m the creative type! Maybe we can help each other!” Police happened to come across her ad while looking for illegal activities and had an undercover cop give her a call. They arranged a meeting at a Bensalem bar on Monday night.  At the bar, Finkelstein was willing to engage in various sexual acts in return for a ticket, said Bensalem Public Safety Director Fred Harran. Then, she asked if the ticketholder had two tickets, and he claimed he did and she was willing to up the sexcapades.

Personally? I was wondering why everyone was even reporting on this. Including me. But I don’t have anything better to do at the moment. I did find one news article where the police were surprised by all the publicity as well and tried to downplay the arrest. “It’s only a prostitution arrest. It’s not that big a deal,” Harran said. He is afraid people will think Bensalem police “had nothing better to do.”

Finkelstein’s attorney, William J. Brennan, said what happened was not a crime. “She was looking for tickets, not sex,” calling Finkelstein a “live-and-die Phillies fan” who simply wanted tickets for herself and her husband. Which she ended up getting from Wired 96.5 radio station. They gave two tickets to Finkelstein and her husband for Game 3 in Philadelphia. Oh, and because I know some of you may be wondering, seats for tonight’s opening game in Yankee Stadium go for anywhere from $249 to $9,500.

Awwww! I love happy endings! Seriously, I do. Surprisingly, the people in the mall who occasionally give free massages do not. In fact, I found out sometimes happy endings can be very illegal.

    the philadelphia police should stop by my neighborhood bar around 12:30 – 1 am. they would find people of both genders willing to negotiate sexual favors in return for a simple well tequila shot. go on with your bad selves fighting heinous crime, philly PD!

    Prostitution has no business being illegal. Who do we think we are telling two consenting adults that they are not allowed to trade services for products?

    The fact that we haven’t moved past this yet is testament to the arrogance and ignorance of Americans.

    Glad she got the tickets, though. When I was in Philly a couple weeks ago, the support for the Phillies was EVERYWHERE. I haven’t felt electricity like that related to a sports team in, well, never. I’m from Seattle, for christ’s sake.

  • eracsurfer

    Hey Athena, you were in my neck of the woods.
    It is amazing the outpouring of support in the city…when they are winning.
    Don’t get me wrong, I really think that they will win (in 6).
    However, if they do happen to emulate the Eagles and choke, there will be a sudden rush of broken arms and legs at the emergency rooms from all of the people jumping from the bandwagon.

    Sorry, just my 2 cents. (Go Phils!)

  • absinthe

    athena, my theory is that sports team mania is much more fervent in cities where it snows. don’t know why.

    To be fair, the department that busted her is the department that is out trying to make sure your kids are protected from online predators and other illegal activity online. Like it or not, prostitution is illegal and they were just doing their job. They stumbled upon her online ad is all.

  • absinthe

    i just wish they used their resources more judiciously.

  • Boughtthefarm

    I actually feel bad for this woman.

    Indeed. It’s not like they’re entirely without discretion.

  • http://www.dreamindemon.com Morbid

    Oh Jesus, here we go again.

  • biteme

    I’m glad they busted her, she deserved it just for lying about her beauty and thinking she was worth the price of admission. Hell I’d be surprised if her services are worth a ball park dog and beer. That’s what she gets for trying to cheat the public.

    Phillies in 5! I hope she enjoys the game.

  • Wildheart

    She’s worried about the integrity of the police?? Pot?? Kettle?? lol

    Actually, I agree wholeheartedly with Athena. It is absolutely asinine in this day and age that prostitution is illegal. Although trading sex for products is probably not something I would do, I would never dream of telling someone else(other than my boyfriend :) ) they couldn’t. If they are consenting adults and what they’re doing doesn’t harm anyone else, then it’s their business and no one else’s.

  • Leila

    Penn grad student, so you’d think she’d be a little more intelligent.

    I can’t wait for the day that this sort of activity isn’t illegal, though. I agree whole-heartedly with Athena and Wildheart.

    If I were to pay upwards of $19,000 to have sex with her she better have some special tricks up her sleeve, like the sun would have to rise out of her asshole.

  • Coyote

    I wonder if she’s related to the Finkelstein shit kid.

    If indeed the sun DID rise out of her asshole – it’d be worth a helluva lot more than $19,000.00! ;) LOL

    I personally never understood men paying for sex. So many hussies/barfly’s out there giving it away for free (or for a beer or 6) – why pay someone? It’s not like they are better looking or even good at it most times (so I’ve heard) It’s mind boggling. Maybe if I were a man I’d ‘get it’… but since I’m not, I don’t.

    I guess “Kudo’s” should go to the chicks that can get a man to ante up tho!

    LOL. Send her off to military school!!

  • CassieMomma

    I wonder what her husband is thinking about all this? LOL!

  • Boughtthefarm

    There are a few things I would have sex for…but I’m not into baseball so this wouldn’t be it! I heard on TV this AM that a radio station gave her 2 tickets for FREE!

  • The Nihilist

    I’m kinda feeling bad for her husband in all of this. I wonder why he doesn’t mind if his wife goes out and blows and fucks any old stranger who can give his wife tickets….

    But other than that, I agree prostitution should be legal. But until it is, we cannot blame the police for doing their jobs. We bitch enough when they don’t.
