Submitted by paula on Thu, 01/17/2019 - 1:08pm
As January is Human Trafficking Awareness Month, one might ask, “exactly what is human trafficking?”
Human trafficking is defined as the recruitment, transportation, transfer, harboring, or receipt of persons by means of coercion, abduction, fraud, deception, for the purpose of exploitation. Sex trafficking is defined as a commercial sex act that is induced by force, fraud, or coercion, or in which the person induced to perform such act has not attained 18 years of age. Of particular note is the automatic classification of trafficking in children under 18 years of age.
