Ads seeking cash for sexual and erotic services still found across site. Ads alluding to exchanges of cash for sexual services and seeking massage clients are still showing up in Casual Encounters section of Craigslist's websites in New York, Las Vegas and other parts of the country.
Craigslist did not respond to a request for comment late today. The controversial Adult Services section on the classified advertisement site's homepage was replaced on Friday with a black and white "CENSORED" box that does not link, just days after a group of state attorneys general had released a statement that they believed the section should be eliminated.
In the statement, attorneys general in 17 states said the site was aiding in illegal exploitation, prostitution and human trafficking.
Craigslist has made no statement since the change to the site, so it is not clear whether the Adult Services section is being removed permanently. In the past, Craigslist has maintained that the Adult Services section was for legitimate adult services, not prostitution. Stream on. By ABC News. September 5, , PM. Feb 8, PM.
