CL Meeting on Human Trafficking Friday — 6 Comments

  1. Human trafficking occurs in the Chicago suburbs.

    Important to learn about how it works, what to look for, the ways one form of abuse can lead to another, etc.

    The 20th is this coming Friday.

  2. The majority of human trafficking occurs at the Borders where Border Patrol has been ordered by the Administration to ignore it.

    Pass all the state laws you want; as long as we have a President who ignores immigration law enforcement, human trafficking will increase.

  3. I’d bed my teeth its happening right now in McHenry County too.

  4. There is plenty of human trafficking that has nothing to do with illegal immigration.

    All races, all income levels.

    It happens everywhere because people are mobile for example as they drive from point A to point B, they stop to eat at a fast food restaurant.
