I'm looking for advice on how an SP can give a police statement without self-incrimination. I had a client recently assault and bear spray me. I'm somewhat certain that under Canadian law, there's something that says that a victim (me) is immune to criminal investigation.
I'm not in this for revenge. I read a lot of Eckhart Tolle and I believe my attacker's pain body got the better of him. Or perhaps he flashed back to some feisty woman in his past that he projected on me. People are unconscious and know not what they do. Basically, I'm compelled to do the right thing and give a police statement to prevent this individual from doing the same thing to other SP's or other people in general. But I'm torn with respect to how to state the facts.
The constable says I have to tell the whole truth because my statement and testimony would be the evidence. But how do I say it? Do I say I provided COMPANY for X $. And then engaged in other pleasures as a result of me wanting to? Ie. some sort of disclaimer type wording similar to what other SP's write on the bottom of their webpages? I'm guessing the cops will ask if I engaged in sexual relations with this individual. What should I say?
Do I have to provide the intimate details of our encounter pre-assault?
The constable told me that prostitution is pretty much legal in 6 months so I don't have to worry about being implicated.
But what if one day, down the road, I'm in a car accident or some other incident in which the officer looks up my history and then treats me with prejudice based on my old testimony for this assault. Currently the cops can only speculate if I'm an SP or not, but my evidence may be construed as a direct confession to it.
What are the potential consequences of providing a police statement as an SP?
I'm not too worried about him re-attacking. My support network has uncovered where he works and lives. He is also a gang member. He doesn't know where I live because I keep incall and living quarters separate. However, if I provide a testimony in court then won't he be able to find out my real name and possibly hurt anyone that I'm associated with?
Guess I was too white washed growing up to take any criminology in college like every other brown person.
Big mistake. Crim knowledge would really help me now. Ethnic people need to protect themselves from racism of the establishment by knowing the law.
Because of the assault, I've finally decided to begin the process of quitting. I'm quitting soon btw! People have been telling me to quit for a while now but I've been waffling back and forth.
I was "present" enough to deal with pooner lies and bs without total soul depletion so I stayed. The assault was a wake-up call that the dinero is not worth limb or life. I was lucky to keep my life. I'm not a drug addict who needs to feed her habit nor am I a foresaken mother.
Fortunately, I have a good support system for the time being. But then what? How do I get back into the job market after leaving the "socially unacceptable" job market. I don't even want to be an "employee" anymore. Some sort of self-employment is my cup of tea. How do I deal with gaps in my CV if I do apply? Guess I'll just have to say I did reception for a relative or really own up and say I shined bolts for the Queen.
