Description
Human trafficking is a serious crime and violation of human rights in the United States, and federal laws have been enacted to combat it including: - Trafficking Victims Protection Act...
show more- Trafficking Victims Protection Act (TVPA): Enacted in 2000 and subsequently reauthorized, the TVPA is the cornerstone of anti-trafficking legislation in the United States. It defines trafficking in persons and establishes various means to combat it, including prevention, prosecution, and protection for victims.
- Federal Laws: There are several federal statutes specifically targeting human trafficking:
- 18 U.S. Code § 1581-1595 (Peonage, Slavery, and Trafficking in Persons): This section of the U.S. Code addresses various forms of human trafficking, including forced labor, involuntary servitude, and sex trafficking. It outlines criminal penalties for offenders.
- 18 U.S. Code § 2421-2429 (Transportation for Illegal Sexual Activity and Related Crimes): These statutes criminalize transportation for illicit sexual activity, including transporting individuals across state lines for prostitution or other unlawful sexual activities.
- 18 U.S. Code § 1951 (Interference with Commerce by Threats or Violence): This law, commonly known as the Hobbs Act, prohibits robbery and extortion that affects interstate commerce. It can be applied in cases where trafficking involves coercion or extortion.
- Victims of Trafficking and Violence Protection Act (VTVPA): Passed in 2000 as part of the TVPA, the VTVPA enhances protections and assistance for victims of trafficking. It establishes the "T Visa" for victims of severe forms of trafficking who cooperate with law enforcement, allowing them to stay and work temporarily in the United States.
- Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act (CAPTA): CAPTA, initially enacted in 1974 and reauthorized several times, requires states to have laws and policies in place to address child abuse and neglect. This includes provisions specific to child victims of trafficking.
- International Marriage Broker Regulation Act (IMBRA): Enacted in 2005, IMBRA regulates international marriage brokers and requires them to conduct background checks on U.S. clients and disclose certain information to foreign national clients.
- Justice for Victims of Trafficking Act (JVTA): Passed in 2015, JVTA strengthens existing anti-trafficking laws and enhances support for victims. It expands law enforcement tools, increases victim restitution, and provides additional resources for prevention and victim services.
- Customs and Immigration Enforcement (ICE): ICE plays a crucial role in investigating and prosecuting human trafficking cases, particularly those involving international borders. It works in collaboration with other federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies.
Using these laws and cases like the R. Kelly case as precedent, the prosecutors have a roadmap on how to get to the finish line when it comes to these kinds of RICO/Human Trafficking cases.
The question is, do they have the evidence?
