Olympic Shame 18+:Prostitution, violence and crime gripping Rio Brazil

 Vila Mimosa, Rio’s oldest and largest prostitution zone, where 3,000 women offer their services in more than 70 bars, has been hit by the deepest recession in a century.
A flyer printed in English states that an hour’s sex during the Games will cost 60 reals (£13), down from 90 reals (£20), while a threesome is priced at 40 reals (£9) per girl for half an hour, and 80 reals (£18) for an hour.But even with discounts, the trade has not been what they expected. It was the same for the World Cup two years ago, when visitors were put off by the prospect of being mugged.
Rio has seen a steep rise in violent crime recently, with 2,000 murders in the first seven months of this year.More after d cut....

Is this still Obodo oyibo?

And dis?

Militias now run the litter-covered favela, in the west zone of the city, where the poor ended up after they were evicted from their homes for the Games.
This, and the battered economy, has seen many women end up working as prostitutes, say charities.

It is legal for over-18s, but illegal to be a pimp.
In Vila Mimosa, a mile from the Maracana Stadium, worker Tatiane tells how she has learnt to say: “Hello baby, want something tasty?... Let me show you a good time.”
With a dragon tattoo on her back, ­turquoise eye-shadow, a belly ring and the bare essentials covering her up, the mum sees 15 to 20 clients every Friday, Sunday and Monday, from 3pm to 9am.
She takes clients upstairs via a spiral staircase at the back of the bar she operates from, and into a cell-like room with a single bed, stool and bin.
Tatiane’s husband thinks she is a bar manager.
She told the Sunday People: “He’d kill me if he found out. I like doing this. It’s easy money.
"I will be targeting English men – I hear they like us sexy Brazilian women.”
Around Copacabana beach, prostitute Juliana uses Facebook and Tinder to attract Westerners.
She says: “It is the ambition of all the girls here to be with an Olympic athlete.”
But tellingly, she adds: “The Olympics are an opportunity to meet nice people with money and perhaps escape… leave this life behind.”
