If you have not realized it by now, using Craigslist can lead to an ambush robbery and even death. Especially when you are a person soliciting for sex. A young Washington, D.C., lawyer and his family learned this the hard way. David Messerschmitt, 30, logged onto Craigslist looking for gay sex in the man for man section. He soon received a reply from dcguy456 who wanted to meet for anal sex. The two set up a meeting time at a posh D.C. hotel for their rendezvous.
