me and a female went to her house and we left together. i was stopped by the police and told to exit my vehicle. officer proceeded to ask me where i was coming from. i was arrested for prostitution, yet the officer did not witness me pick up the person, did not witness the sexual act, or the conversation that me and the female had. yet officer asked me questions then proceeded to read me my miranda rights then arrested me and the female because was a known prostitute. i never saw the female before that encounter. i was given a traffic ticket as well, but was never asked for drivers license, insurance, or anything associated with a traffic stop. since the female was a known prostitute i was arrested along with her.

Based on your facts, it appears that probable cause existed for the officers to issue the charge. That is the legal standard required to support the charge, although a higher evidentiary standard (proof beyond a reasonable doubt) applies to trial proceedings. For a confirmation of this assessment, and to determine the possible alternative dispositons and consequences, you should consult directly with a NY licensed lawyer before you try to resolve these matters.
