"Be Careful Out There. Oh, and Pick up a Weekly for Me."

The world's oldest newspaper may have canceled its print edition, but thanks to the patronage of law enforcement officials, you'll always be able to get the Seattle weeklies on paper. It's where cops get their tips:

Everett detectives have been investigating Paradise Tanning as a front for a prostitution operation since August. That's when a detective found an advertisement for the business listed in a "sensual" section of The Seattle Weekly, according to court documents. The ads were also placed in The Stranger.

Other police departments have uncovered prostitution rings through similar advertisements, detectives said.

"I'm not sure why people think police don't look at these newspapers. We are paying attention and we will respond as we need to," Everett police Sgt. Robert Goetz said.
