I imagine you have a vision in your head that all prostitutes were trafficked as children, abused, and are selling their bodies against their will. Prostitution is spectrum... like autism.

But yet you're specifically talking about hookers who are victims of sex trafficking in your posts.

I just read the court filing. Wow. It has everything, drugs, drugging, sex, coercion, trafficking of underage girls (some mentioned as under age 16), boys, sex workers, other women. Good grief, he had cameras in every room. The court paper filed starts a few years back (JLo mentioned, she was Diddy's girlfriend), Cuba Gooding Jr. mentioned (and he was taking part in forcible sex activities, onto present).

I wonder who the politicians, athletes, and "other notable international people like Prince Harry" are.

He may be all of that, but he may also be a nasty creep as well.
Sounds like it. Like R. Kelly, Epstein, Wienstein, and Michael Jackson.

True, it might have legs like Weinstain, or Michael Jerkson.

Oh, and they need a force of 50 paramilitary cops to arrest the guy? Feds always have to make a show of force.
Yeah, it wasn't like he was going to jump out with a grenade launcher strapping!

Well, he kept changing his name.

His name is Sean Combs.

Then it was Puffy.

Then it was Puff Daddy.

Then it was P. Diddy.

Then it was Diddy.

Then he added 'Love' to his name: Sean Love Combs.

Then he was Diddy again.

I've heard of him, but never listened to his "music".

I have been talking about the redefining of what the word "trafficking" means. I have no opinion as to P-Diddy's guilt or innocence.

That’s not true at all.

Sex trafficking is the illegal transportation of people from one country to another for the purpose of exploitation.

For example, the owners of an Asian massage parlor could get that charge, not the clients who went there to get their happy ending. A pimp could get that charge, not the clients who saw his women.

Furthermore, a recent high end brothel has been busted and none of the owners have been charged with sex trafficking at the moment. Only for operating a high end brothel.

The point is no one gets charged willy nilly for sex trafficking just for seeing a prostitute.

I know what the common definition of sex trafficking is. I am saying some cities are charging Johns with sex trafficking for using the services of a prostitute.

As was pointed out to me by a member here, it's part of the Nordic model approach to prostitution.

#1 on the list is charge the Johns, not the prostitutes.
