A centuries-old crime, human trafficking occurs not only in
undeveloped countries, but also in some surprising locations. Right
here in the United States, individuals are recruited, transported,
and held by unlawful means-either through deception or under threat
of violence. Approaching the topic from a law enforcement
perspective, Combating Human Trafficking: A Multidisciplinary
Approach provides an unprecedented look at the investigation of
this phenomenon in America. Beginning with historical,
sociological, and psychological perspectives, the book discusses
how authorities can best conduct an investigation of trafficking.
It reviews federal agencies responsible for confronting the
problem, examines relevant laws and legal trends, and discusses law
enforcement awareness and training. Individual chapters written by
experts in law enforcement explore a host of topics, including:
Border issues between Mexico and the U.S., including the
trafficking of people, drugs, and firearms The role of the Internet
in human trafficking Child victim recruitment into sex trafficking
How sexually oriented businesses such as escort services, hostess
bars, and massage parlors can be fronts for sex trafficking The
prevalence of human trafficking among street gangs Forced labor
aspects, especially with respect to illegal immigrants How victims
are chosen Theoretical, practical, and ethical considerations in
providing effective services to victims An ideal resource for
police investigators, police training, and community outreach
organizations, the book is also suitable as a college text for
criminal justice courses. It is hoped that the awareness created
through this text will provide the knowledge and tools needed to
help to end this form of modern-day slavery.
