Where's the Sex Trafficking?
I read that report and the charges that were filed, but for some reason there were no "sex trafficking" charges levied? Just plain old promoting prostitution charges.
Remember what [B]the definition of Sex Trafficking[/B] is?
[I]Human trafficking, also known as trafficking in persons, is a crime that involves compelling or coercing a person to provide labor or services, or to engage in commercial sex acts. The coercion can be subtle or overt, physical or psychological. Exploitation of a minor for commercial sex is human trafficking, regardless of whether any form of force, fraud, or coercion was used.[/I]

So as far as the info given, it doesn't look like there was any "trafficking" going on. I guess it depends on the case of a few girls that said they weren't paid as to if that was force, compulsion, coercion or just a situation of employer cheating its workers?
This is the problem. Everyone equates all prostitution with sex trafficking, when it isn't. Why is this state with its politicians that want to be just like CA, are cracking down on sex work, taking a VERY conservative, Bible-thumping approach?
