The Deptment of Justice currently run by that wretch Merrick Garland, made recent modifications to its website. The DOJ’s Child Sex Trafficking webpage removed three sections from its “areas of concern”:
“International Sex Trafficking of Minors,” “Domestic Sex Trafficking of Minors,” and “Child Victims of Prostitution” have all been removed.
The section was added during the Trump Administration and used to highlight how international sex trafficking is a major problem in the United States. “Recovered victims originate from all over the world including Southeast Asia, Central America, South America, Western Europe” and more. It also noted foreign victims are easily targeted by traffickers who convince them a better life awaits them in the states, only to be subject to a life controlled by their captors or sold into prostitution.
2022 global law enforcement data from the DOJ showed more than 90,354 victims of trafficking were identified in 2021 and 109,216 were identified in 2020. It came amid Biden’s border crisis as traffickers continue to smuggle children into the U.S. As of July 5th, 2023 Health and Human Services (HHS) said they had at least 6,127 unaccompanied children in its care. In FY 2022 the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) referred 128,904 unaccompanied children to the Office of Refugee Resettlement.
