Donelson man who advertised services on Craigslist arrested for prostitution

Tuesday, June 24, 2008 at 10:37am

A Donelson man who advertised "sensual massages" on a popular Web site was arrested last week on charges of aggravated prostitution, Metro police said.

James Donoho, 41, allegedly posted ads on Craigslist advertising sensual massages, which prompted a citizen's complaint and a Metro police investigation.

Donoho then agreed to meet two police operatives on separate days at his house at 2531 Stinson Road to perform sexual acts for money, which lead to the aggravated prostitution charges, police said. He is also charged with unlawful use of drug paraphernalia after detectives found a metal crack pipe under a mattress.

Donoho admitted to Specialized Investigators Division detectives that he is HIV positive, according to a press release.

Donoho's bond was set at $21,000.

Craigslist leads to creepy people doing illegal things, who would have ever thought of it! Fire up the presses City Paper...oh, we gotta wait until Friday to print this. Boycot Craigslist (especially the erotic section) until Friday!

Craigslist, a place for shady behavior? I am shocked (note sarcasm).However, reading Craigslist Rant & Rave section is better than most television programs.

Another corner store closes and somewhere yet another profits from increased demand-a story old as time. This isn't news, its history.

I'm so glad violent crime has ended in Metro so that the cops can focus on the trivial offenses. How wonderful? No 3 year-olds shot while in a car, no home invasions, no stores held up, no drive-by shootings, no murders, no armed robbery, no theft. Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeee

I highly prefer them arresting HIV positive whores over giving out traffic tickets, personally.

kosh, are you saying that an officer should have been stationed at the car where the child was shot? I guess you think an officer should be at the home invasion? An officer should be every where a crime is being committed! kossh, stop blaming the police, and put the blame where it should be, on the ones committing the crimes!

There must be a break-in at TITAN1's home or computer. Sir or madam, we know that you are not TITAN1. This same poster said the exact opposite within the last two years in defending an Adam Jones. To imply that TITAN1 put blame on the one committing the crime is proof enough someone is stealing an identity.
