'Shorty' the Dwarf Pimp

It's not often you come across such headlines.

Dwarf Accused Of Pimping Runaway To Face Judge

And what the hell, it's local news for me, so that provides ample cover.

A dwarf charged with prostituting an underage runaway will appear in Kings County, N.Y. Supreme Court on Monday.

Jacqueline Green, a.k.a. 'Shorty,' due to her 3 foot 9 inch height, is charged with promoting prostitution and child endangerment for allegedly pimping a 15-year-old that ran away from a troubled home.

According to published reports, Green is accused of using her Bedford-Stuyvesant apartment as a sex pad for clients who paid $250 per half-hour for intercourse, and $100 per half-hour of oral sex.

Clients were found using Craigslist.

Seems the neighbors were most fond of Shorty.

Neighbors at Green's Brooklyn housing project were not surprised by the arrest, where she was described as a "hustler," and a "player."

Reginald Forden told the Post "I didn't know she was a pimp, but I'm not surprised."

Even diminutive people have to earn a living.

Some little people with attitude probably got to WCBS, because they later changed the headline on this version: Alleged Teen Prostitute's Pimp In NYC Court Monday.
