Manhattan District Attorney Cy Vance Jr. announced that he would end the prosecution of prostitution and unlicensed massage-related cases. Those arrested for prostitution or unlicensed massage will be offered strictly voluntary services instead.
The district attorney also said that he would move to dismiss more than 900 cases dating back to the 1970s and more than 5,000 loitering for the purpose of prostitution cases.
