Slavery, Prostitution Ring in ‘Massage Parlors’ across Four Counties in Florida Busted

Bad news, and good news: As you’ll have heard, there is still slavery in the world, and there is still (or again) slavery in America, operating in the shadows. The good-news story is that some of the human traffickers have been busted.

They’ll be solicited for sex, will arrest the workers and shut the place down. And the problem goes away, but not really goes away.

Safe, Legal, and Rare
