NET News: Sold for Sex: Trafficking in Nebraska | netnebraska.org:
NET News reporting project on sex trafficking in Nebraska
"Somewhere in Nebraska, right now, there’s sex for sale. Experts believe a lot of the time this isn’t prostitution. It’s someone being trafficked through what’s legally defined as “force, fraud or coercion.” It’s an ugly industry whose victims are mostly women and often children."
"Two new 30 minute NET News documentaries report on sex trafficking in Nebraska."
First of two: “Sold for Sex: Trafficking in Nebraska”. It examines how trafficking happens in the state, the fight to stop it and what is being done to help victims."

Special Report: Sex trade battle is now an online war | Boston Herald
"Cops who once ran street-corner stings now fight the sex trade online — using social media campaigns to thwart sex buyers — and stake out the hotels, “massage” parlors and apartments where men buying illegal sex meet the girls that pimps are advertising online."
"They’re targeting “johns” and even young men who have never bought sex with facts about what they’re doing to opiate-addicted girls and women whose lives are controlled by abusive pimps."
"The twin strategies are to deny human traffickers the anonymity of the web, while making buyers aware of the consequences of their actions."
