When a Baltimore police officer was dragged making a prostitution arrest on Friday, the name of the suspect turned out to be a familiar one to bloggers who post about the sex trade in Pigtown. The woman named Empriss has made recurring appearances on Baltimore John Watch.

This is a group of video vigilantees who take pictures of suspected prostitutes and johns on Washington Boulevard and surrounding streets and post them for all to see. They love close-ups of license plates and the men who circle the area. Today, they linked to an alternate site, a guide for johns seeking sexual services, which complained about police using undercover officers to curb the trade.

At one point, John Watch published a photo showing Empriss, identifiable by her tatoo.
