No person shall loiter in or near any thoroughfare or place open to the public in
a manner and under circumstances manifesting the purpose of inducing, enticing, soliciting
or procuring another to commit an act of prostitution. Among the circumstances which
may be considered in determining whether such purpose is manifested are the following:
that such person is a known prostitute; that such person frequents, either on foot
or in a motor vehicle, a known area of prostitution; and that such person repeatedly
beckons to, stops, or attempts to stop, or engages passersby in conversation, or repeatedly
stops or attempts to stop motor vehicle operators by hailing, waving of arms, or any
other bodily gesture for the purpose of inducing, enticing, soliciting, or procuring
another to commit an act of prostitution. The violator's conduct must be such as to
constitute activity which demonstrates a specific intent to induce, entice, solicit
or procure another to commit an act of prostitution. No arrest shall be made for a
violation of this section unless the arresting officer first affords such persons
an opportunity to explain such conduct, and no one shall be convicted of violating
this section if it appears at trial that the explanation given was true and disclosed
a lawful purpose.
