S.F. law enforcement to stop using condoms to arrest, prosecute sex workers

Police and prosecutors in San Francisco will no longer use condoms as evidence when arresting and charging sex workers, according to an agreement announced Tuesday between The City’s law enforcement agencies and the Human Rights Commission.

The agreement followed a six-month trial period in which condoms were not used as evidence in cases. The moratorium "did not prove to have any substantial negative impacts on public safety and the quality of life of the residents of San Francisco," according to the commission.
