America’s sleaziest headlines are often a harbinger of some very telling social remarks. I particularly loved this cause for concern, voiced by a high-priced madam’s neighbours:

Porter could not say for sure how long the illegal activity was going on, but neighbors have been complaining for at least three years.

Among other things, neighbors thought it was odd that all the basement windows were blacked out. Also, they saw lots of modest-looking cars and trucks that appeared out of place in the well-to-do neighborhood.

Welcome to America’s gated communities: Where owning anything short of a Lexus makes you suspect.
