Unfortunately there are many people throughout many societies who do believe that prostitution should remain illegal and its consequences (which they don't address) should be swept under the carpet and not discussed. The posts below yours illustrate that perfectly. Even in the cases I quoted from the US and UK, many of the investigations were delayed because the police and other authorities simply didn't care much that prostitutes kept disappearing until the bodies just kept piling up.
