Trafficking versus Voluntary Prostitution – Econlib
SHARE

In a recent Facebook message, a friend shared a story that shed light on the issue of sex trafficking and how it is often misrepresented by government officials. The story recounted an incident involving a female coworker who believed she had narrowly escaped being kidnapped by sex traffickers at a Target store in Raleigh.

According to the coworker, a man approached her and made a comment about her t-shirt, which led her to believe that he was a kidnapper. She was convinced that there had been multiple sex trafficking arrests at that particular Target location, fueling her fear. However, upon closer investigation, it was revealed that the alleged cases of sex trafficking were actually just instances of regular prostitution with no actual trafficking or kidnappings involved.

This revelation highlighted the tendency of law enforcement to sensationalize cases as trafficking in order to secure more funding and media attention. The coworker’s unfounded fear of being kidnapped at Target was a direct result of this misrepresentation.

It is important to distinguish between voluntary prostitution and actual instances of sex trafficking in order to address the issue effectively. By conflating the two, law enforcement agencies not only mislead the public but also perpetuate unnecessary fear and stigma.

This story serves as a reminder to critically evaluate information and not succumb to sensationalized narratives. By understanding the complexities of sex trafficking and advocating for accurate reporting, we can work towards combating the real issues at hand.
