Those hilarious deputies

So the fax comes over this afternoon from the Lexington County Sheriff's Department.

Officers with the Lexington County Multi-Agency Narcotics Enforcement Team (Net) on Wednesday, Feb. 15 arrested four prostitutes and a woman who managed two houses of prostitution on Bush River and St. Andrews Roads in the St. Andrews community, it read in that tone only the legally-afflicted (and reporters who have studied a little too heavily from the cop-speak stylebook) can manage to achieve.

But it's nice to know that even when the going gets heavy, our men and women in county brown can keep a lighter touch.

The name of this operation? But of course:

Operation Hoe-Down
