FRAMINGHAM -

Police busted a transsexual Somerville prostitute Saturday they say charged an undercover detective a $165 "donation" for the "full service." Clovis P. DeMoura, a man, was charged with prostitution for a fee after posting a craigslist.org ad in the "T4M" section that read, "Hi boys... today is my last day here! (Framingham!)" police said."

$165 sounds like an odd number.  But exchanging sex for money is against the law in most places, regardless of who you are.  But what strikes me as odd is that someone on Craig's List is actually telling close to the truth.  And I'm not sure where they myth that if you ask an undercover officer if they are a cop they are under some sort of legal obligation to tell you ever got started.
