A Vancouver student testified Monday he used a website to arrange a two hour sexual encounter with a Calgary escort.
Neither individual can be identified because of a court order, however the university student told Justice Patrick Sullivan that he contacted the woman through the Hollywood Escorts website. After a series of phone calls, he learned that the woman would be flying into Vancouver in a couple of days. The two agreed to a fee of $500 and to meet at a Vancouver’s Century Plaza Hotel.
He said he met the escort in the hotel’s lobby and then headed to her room.
“We talked a little bit, she gave me some massage,” the man told Crown prosecutor David Torske. “We agreed to money, then I had sex wither, then I took a shower and then I left.”
Court has previously heard the woman jumped to her death from the 22nd floor of the hotel about 12 hours after he left on Dec. 21, 2002.
The accused, 40, is on trial for living on the avails of prostitution, in regards to this escort.
The former firefighter faces 14 other charges including procuring and keeping a common bawdy house. His lawyer Patrick Fagan, has applied for a stay of all the charges. He’s trying to persuade Sullivan that the city has legalized the sex trade because it requires all escorts to be licensed, therefore, the accused should never have been charged.
The trial continues today.
