The most recent entry in the Unlikely Crimes category: A City Council candidate from Centerville, Iowa—who just happens to be an 83-year-old man—was arrested and charged with prostitution. The 33-year-old victim accuses Ben Clifford Dawson of offering to let her repay a loan by allowing him to perform sex acts on her, the Daily Iowegian reports. Dawson, who allegedly also kissed the victim’s neck without permission, was also charged with assault with intent to commit sexual abuse. The Smoking Gun has the arrest warrants here.
