‘Security guard for prostitutes’ beat three victims with 2-by-4, holding one captive for a week, prosecutors claim
CWBChicago ^ | 5/10/16 | Tim Hecke

A Chicago man who told investigators he works as a security guard for prostitutes chained a customer to a metal pole in a basement apartment for a week, forced him to liquidate his stock portfolio and withdraw more than $32,000 in cash from two banks, then beat him so severely he suffered broken ribs and a punctured lung, according to prosecutors.

While the victim was confined in the apartment, one of the assailant’s sex workers, who was also allegedly beaten with a two-by-four while locked in the basement, assured the victim he would get used to the attacks, prosecutors said.

Dionte Young allegedly carried out those attacks and a third beating with a two-by-four while on felony pretrial release, making him the sixth person accused of killing or trying to kill someone in Chicago this year while awaiting trial for a felony.

You can’t make this stuff up. There are too many demented people running around loose in blue states.

probably part of the AP Style Guide .... like “hooker”, “pimp” has such bad connotations, so instead of “the hooker’s pimp”, we now have AP NewSpeak,”the sex worker’s security guard” ...

Nothing wrong with "procurer" or "whoremonger" or "owner/manager of short term sexual services establishment."

How long before the Demoncrats adopt this as a fund raising tactic?

I want to know if morale improved and if not, what choice to make other than a 2X4. I’m trying to raise a future Olympian and the usual methods aren’t cutting it.

Dionte Young allegedly carried out those attacks...

Without looking, I think the 'Security Guard' is NOT Caucasian!

Never heard a pimp called “a security guard for prostitutes” before.”

It’s the new and improved DEI job title.

New job title... just like a garbageman is a sanitary engineer...

I probably wouldn’t recommend investing in Dionte Young’s escort and security business, you’ll take a beating.
