Police Say Angela Eversole Sold Sex for Gas

Miss Marilyn
Who is Angela Eversole? A 34-year-old Kentucky woman who is facing charges of prostitution. Local police say her client, Kenneth Nowack, offered her a $100 Speedway gas card and about 25 gallons of gas. Anthony Schaffner, Angela Eversole's boyfriend is denying the charge, claiming that Angela Eversole is definitely not a prostitute, according to WCPO-TV.

According to one source, police were hoping to catch a prostitute who was selling sex for money. They said they discovered that Angela Eversole was meeting at the Days Inn on Dixie Highway for illegal sex. She is also being charged with conducting business without an occupational license.

As gas prices continue to climb, many people find it difficult to make ends meet. That Angela Eversole allegedly found it necessary to sell her body for gas shows she was in legitimate need of help. Still, if true, that does not make it acceptable for persons to engage such activities. Prostitution is the oldest form of work known to man. Payment is normally taken in monetary form. What message does it send when someone is willing to accept gas for payment? It screams desperation.

Personally, I have found it quite difficult to afford gas these days. Do I shun what this? No! What items would I consider selling for gas? First, I would evaluate my needs. First item, my laptop, it has a estimated value of $250 and would probably give me enough gas to get by for a month if I'm careful. Next item, a $1200 coffee espresso machine which is never used. Has an estimated value of $430. A few items, that I could quickly get rid of are gold jewelry. Of course, my bicycle would be the fourth item that would sell for a few dollars. Or I could just use it instead and not burn any gas. Is it easy to sell off your personal belongings? No. Many people are finding it difficult to keep up with just their basic needs.

Here are some helpful ways to make money on the internet. Setting up a Craiglist's account is easy. You can sell items off online, all you need is a digital camera and an e-mail address. If tough times started to corner me, I would keep writing more Associated Content articles. There are many creative ways of making money on the internet. If you're into entering data, you could easily pick up a job at mTurk. This website allows you to pick up easy hits. They usually need work such as transcripts or blogging done.

As the economy continues to take a dive, should not we that have good jobs and homes treasure that? Many companies are laying off tenured workers due to slowing production. It is imperative then, that working Americans make a diligent effort be educated citizens and be able to quickly switch gears in case a pink slip or otherwise should hit us.

A good question to ask yourself is, "If I were laid off today, would my current assets sustain me for a period of six or more months?" If your answer is negative, then it is time think of creative ways to save.

    Hey, at least she wasn't trading herself for drugs! She picked something useful :) I think prostitution should just be legalized and monitored- why can't you sell your body for something in return? Don't women have sex with their husbands to get the dishes done? All kidding aside, if they would allow women to be prostitutes and then have them be tested regularly for STDs and make them have an ID card or something, the government could make a lotta dough with it. Call it a "sex tax" everytime you pay a prostitute to get laid! Works with cigarettes, the US could really make a lotta money and get out of debt....

    Interesting article. On another note - I've never heard of mTurk before - thanks for the tip. I looked at the site and bookmarked it. BTW - I LOVE Craigslist...its a great place to get useful items for less. Over the years, I've gotten a gas scooter, photo printer, and an elliptical for really good prices.

    Interesting article ! I guess the most that I can do is sell the last pair of shoes for gas, because I wouldn't be able to afford the gas to go out anymore !
