This legislation, modeled after similar proposed Southern Legislation, is designed to go after dangerous undercover prostitution conducted via phone.

Also I totally stole the title from the South, I'm not opposed to changing it if people are apprehensive about using the word "Sin".

[Brother Jonathan]

I'll be somewhat contradictory and say I personally don't object to having sin in the title here since it isn't accompanied by citing a religious text. I'll read the act more closely but at the moment I don't really have any strong objections.
