propose suggestions you recommend to encourage law enforcement and lawmakers to protect

Constitutional rights of Americans while continuing to fight cybercrime.

Discussion

The following video (FBI and Police Rescue over 100 Children from Sex Trafficking Air Date: 07/29/2013) describes recent efforts in combating child sex trafficking. Millions of children are involved in the global sex trade every year. The sex trade is run by the demand, and it is profitable for traffickers and pimps, among others. After watching the video, please discuss your thoughts on adopting tougher laws toward the perpetrators, while decriminalizing the individuals committing prostitution. How can this be accomplished? What type of rehabilitation efforts would be helpful for the victims?
