Description

Defendant appeals from a conviction for prostitution, a gross misdemeanor under Minn. St. 609.32, subd. 4(1). Defendant contends (1) that statements made to her parents after her release on an appearance bond were inadmissible since the state failed to give pretrial notice regarding its intention to introduce such statements into evidence; (2) that she was denied her constitutional right to a fair trial as a result of prosecutorial improprieties; and (3) that she was denied her constitutional right to equal protection as the result of discriminatory enforcement of the prostitution laws. The trial court denied defendant's motion for a pretrial hearing on the claimed discriminatory penal enforcement of the state prostitution law. Officer Matthew Vincent of the Minneapolis Police Department's morals squad, at the instigation of an informant, Curtis Mohler, investigated prostitution on May 3, 1971, in the Dayton-Radisson Arcade. The informant at 10:30 p.m. introduced Vincent to Joe Connelly, a security officer at the arcade, who, according to Vincent's testimony, told the men to come back later when he would attempt to procure for them a girl. Officer Vincent testified that after their return to the arcade about 1:30 a.m. defendant propositioned them. Defendant denied this and stated that she had merely come to the arcade after a local bar had closed to ask Connelly to join her for a meal. About 3:15 a.m., some time after defendant left the scene, Connelly was arrested for procuring a prostitute. A short time later, upon hearing of Connelly's arrest, defendant went to the courthouse to inquire about her friend and was herself arrested.
