Columbus woman charged with prostitution
A Columbus woman accused of prostitution was arrested Sunday afternoon near North Lumpkin Road, authorities said.
Shanita Evette Cannon, 36, was taken into custody at 5:15 p.m. Sunday on prostitution and obstruction charges. She was booked into the Muscogee County Jail under bonds totaling $500 until her 2 p.m. Tuesday hearing in Columbus Recorder’s Court.
Officials have released few details about the incident.
In November 2015, Cannon was one of three women arrested in a prostitution sting in that same area. She allegedly told an undercover officer she’d have sex with him for $15, but it would cost $40 for “anything else.”
