The latest example of outdated laws conflicting with reality. It’s called the world’s oldest profession for a reason, and it’s never going to stop because of some idiotic statute.
Olympic gold medalist and former Ohio State wrestler Kyle Snyder was arrested Friday in a prostitution sting, per multiple reports.
The 29-year-old was one of 16 men who were charged during a sting operation on Columbus’ North Side conducted by Columbus police.
According to Columbus police Sgt. Joe Albert, the department posted ads for escort services to the internet in an attempt to bust those looking to engage in prostitution.
Snyder allegedly called and texted police around 8:15 p.m. on Friday upon seeing the online ads and later arrived at a nearby hotel to meet up for what he thought was a legitimate escort service.
Before his arrest, Snyder was known as the youngest wrestler to win a world championship, NCAA championship, and Olympic Gold Medal in the same year when he competed in the 2016 Rio Olympics while a student at Ohio State University. Snyder represented Team USA a second time at the Tokyo Olympics in 2021, taking home a silver medal.
More recently, he signed with Real American Freestyle, Hulk Hogan’s new freestyle wrestling league, which Hogan has promised will be “bigger” than WWE or UFC.
