LOL. Trafficking was never that big of a problem. See the link:

In 2011, when in the Dallas area, Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott said, “The Super Bowl is one of the biggest human-trafficking events in the United States.”
Earlier, a police sergeant there predicted that 50,000 to 100,000 prostitutes might arrive, enough to fill a stadium.
After the game, The Dallas Morning News reported there were 59 prostitution arrests, and none were of minors.
n 2012 in Indianapolis, there were a reported 68 prostitution arrests, two that involved human trafficking.
In 2013, New Orleans had 85 prostitution-related arrests and two cases of trafficking, according to the Advocate.
In 2014 in New Jersey, where the game took place in East Rutherford, there were "45 people arrested and 16 juveniles rescued in a two-week crackdown,"
In 2015 in Phoenix, there were 71 prostitution arrests, and nine of the suspects were underaged.
In 2016 in Santa Clara, Calif., there were 42 prostitution arrests, with two girls under 18.
In 2017, Houston had 217 vice arrests over 10 days — 56 for prostitution (four were ID'd as trafficking victims), 11 pimps and 100-plus johns.
Last year in Minneapolis, police arrested 94 men and "made contact with 28 potential victims ages 17-49," presumably women in prostitution. Six told police they were trafficked.
Justice Department numbers show that 2,515 trafficking cases were investigated in a 30-month period starting January 2008. Seemingly, the feds have stepped up their game since. In 2012, there were 1,923 cases of human trafficking nationwide.
Granted, victims are often hard to find and often won’t cooperate. But the numbers seem underwhelming compared to the purported crisis. And it would seem if you want to solve a problem, you should be accurate in enumerating it.
End of quotes from that article.
Now look at this story about a girl being trafficked, then look at her picture:

Look, it is tragic when real trafficking goes on, but that story makes it sound like the chick in the article above was a straight A student and a virgin. Real trafficking is when you are doing something against your will.
For the most part, trafficking is just an excuse for law enforcement to arrest and steal from johns. It turns prostitution from a victimless crime into ones where women are victims and quite frankly, I am sick of that.
Strippers and hos are now all victims. They all had full ride scholarships to Harvard until men corrupted them, the poor things. As you can see above, there are not that many women trafficked, and LE is tripping over itself to inflate the numbers.
