Posted on February 10th, 2007

Milwaukee police recently started busting people involved in prostitution by cruising Craig’s List. One of the local television stations did a ride-along, and was surprised at one of the women arrested that night.

Annie Schrader is an ex-con who claimed to be reformed. Schrader had done prison time on felony charges of keeping a house of prostitution and maintining a drug-trafficking place, in addition to two misdemeanors related to drug posession.

For the last three years, she ran a non-profit organization called StretcherBearers Ministries that helped female convicts. The orgnaization had a controact with Milwaukee County to provide services through a federally funded program called Wiser Choice.
