No, this was someone who was just there to protect me, because after a huge, violent thing that happened to me in which a person was charged with attempted murder, I choose to set boundaries around my sex work and what I would and wouldn't do. I no longer would do car dates, and if a person did not want to come to my home, we didn't go. I had a safety person there for me. Because of the safety person—when I was hurt without a safety person—it changed drastically when that person was there. Other things did happen that were forms of violence, but that person was there to protect me. But, unfortunately, in the eyes of the law, that person could have been, would have been, charged with living off the avails, and procuring, which he was not. It was my adult decision.
