[QUOTE=JoinemUs;2560748]Seems to me that a provider who advertises is "obtaining" US.
If WE ran ads looking for a provider, then arguably we might be doing the obtaining, instead.

[QUOTE=Skatar018;2560892]It's a good question Oldmonger & one I hope none of us have to find out in a court of law.
However the chapter & section that is linked is pertaining to commercial sex work & or benefits financially or by receiving anything of value from human or sex trafficking.

I believe that this section pertains to johns & customers.
[URL]https://malegislature.gov/laws/generallaws/partiv/titlei/chapter272/section53a[/URL][/QUOTE]The Commonwealth has cast a wide net to charge business owners and employees with trafficking. It doesn't take much involvement to be charged with trafficking. None of this seems right if the providers perform willingly.
Some foreign prostitutes have used the US trafficking laws to avoid prosecution. When arrested, they claim they were trafficked. Immediately, the women go from being criminals to victims. Agencies rush to provide them with needed services, and they can't believe how well they gamed the system.
Stay safe,
OM.

I think it's time to introduce berqas. To me that seems like a natural logical progression, and it would also cover all bases.
Last spring, the USA Supreme Court ruled officers need a search warrant to see what's on your phone, unless you consent to a search.

[URL]Boston.com[/URL] has an article stating that the Burlington Police Department will be conducting stings over the next few months. It's mentioned using online sites and hotels to focus on sex trafficking. This happened last year as well so be careful.
