Dave Elms of TER IN JAIL
 
Dave Elms was arrested on a felony charge and booked into South Bay/Torrence Lockup 6/4/08 at 10:41AM
He was than transferred to Los Angeles Men's Central Jail on 6/5/08 at 20:33.
He is allowed visitors
There is no bail
His court date is 7/1/08 which is the same date he already was scheduled to appear for a parole violation of a felony conviction related to drugs and guns.
Case Number YA06435401
Booking No.: 1497328
Source: The Los Angeles County Sheriffs Dept.
There is a great deal going on - I am working with a well known national newspaper who is carefully preparing a major story on Dave Elm's abuse of providers.  
 
Updates based on Questions received:
All I know is it was a felony arrest warrant.
 
He already was scheduled for a parole violation hearing 7/1. His scheduled court date for this arrest is the same. I don't know if they rearrested him based on the prior parole violation for a felony related to drugs and cons or if this is a new charge. The case number for this charge is different than prior so it probably is a new charge.  He was convicted of old felony on 9/7/2006 and after spending 3 days in jail was put on 36 months formal probation with conditions.  
 
Prior convictions:
Convicted on 1 count of disorderly conduct-prostitution 2/23/1993
Convicted on 2 counts of possession of a narcotic controlled substance in 1998
Convicted on 1 count of controlled substance with firearm in 2006
 
He also has a State Tax lien on his home in the amount of $6849 filed in 2007
 
We still need folks to talk to the reporter "on the record" the story is being delayed and reporter says will be bigger than we even know but he can't go into details.  
 
A major problem for the part of the story on extortion of gals to provide him sex or that being his demand is few credible companions are willing to come forward on the record even with names protected. He has many providers very scared of him, even in Phoenix. Reporter is getting impression that most companions are a bit "flaky" and doesn't know what to believe.  
 
Since the notice he is now tucked away in jail for awhile a few more providers have contacted me considering talking to the reporter. dave@davephx.com
 
There is also suspicion but unconfirmed that the "bigger story" the reporter refers to but can't talk about might be an ongoing FBI investigation of TER, similar to what happened with TBD.  With TBD it took a few years of investigation behind the scenes before the bust of big doggie and it appeared that the Feds took over the TBD board for awhile.  Some providers are telling me they want nothing to do with TER, certainly not post on it during this time before potentially media attention and LE activity. Again this is unconfirmed but I have now heard this from more than one source.

New York Times Article Out on Dave Elms of TER

Good article in my view.  I am glad I wasn't mentioned since I preferred just to lead him to the real story about Dave Elm's abuse and extortion but not be part of it.

Interesting new facts The felony charges against Mr. Elms stemmed from a night in 2006 when the police were called to a hotel where they found him with 3.8 grams of cocaine and a loaded semi-automatic weapon. A prostitute was there and said Mr. Elms had forced her to perform oral sex at gunpoint, but there was not enough evidence to press charges on that accusation - just the drug and gun charges.

Latest arrest: Mr. Elms, 37, was jailed this month on accusations that he failed five drug tests since October, a violation of his probation from a 2006 drug and gun conviction. If he is found to have violated his probation, he could be sentenced to four years in prison.

Thanks for sharing the story Dave, I have many lady friends that escort and know them from my many years in the hobby.  I too was a fan of TER once upon a time until these ladies were confirming the stories that were coming out on the net.  The guy just didnt keep things honest, the ladies I know would never associate themselves with TER, and this is just another black eye, that shows the type of person running the show over there.

 Glad that this finaly came to light.  Im also very curious about the above post the TER ASPD relationship.

RE: ASPD is the same as TER.......................

 

um....no it is not. they are 2 different sites unless you are referring to aspd being watched by l.e. like ter in which case you worded it wrong but i gotya..... 

 

AND AS FOR THE STORY....WOW! It sounds like a very bad man just got taken off the streets. If I was an escort he has seen I would want to come forward but on the other hand it would end my days as an escort so really I wouldn't know what to do..

I think the support needs to come from the ladies, I immediatly stopped going there once I found out what was going on.  The industry needs to go somewhere they can trust.  I never even go to TER anymore, I choose sites like tna, bigdoggie, and eros.  Just my thought
