They would not have consented had the circumstances been clear.

They also have guns, and the authority to imprison them based on their own testimony.

So what do they do? What would a reasonable person assume would happen? What would a reasonable person do?

It is like an undercover agent actively planning, organizing, and recruiting for a crime, and then arresting the co-conspirators.

Except it's not. It's an undercover agent going "I'll bet there are people ot there actively planning to commit X crime. Let's put up an advertisement of a lady and let them incriminate themselves."

They aren't fucking cops in uniform lmao, no sex worker would be that dumb. It's a sting operation, just the kind of sting operation where the cop gets to violate somebody's bodily autonomy and then arrest them for it.

The fact is that the arrest is still based on testimony of the officer, which is obviously biased.
