Kron 4s Ella Sogomonian says the report points out that some of the biggest problems are in San Francisco and san jose. Antihuman trafficking organzation polaris found an average of around 200 illicit massage parlors in both San Francisco and san jose each. A task force with the city of San Francisco is actively combatting the problem but with a major hurdle. Sot vanessa russell, love never fails many will not come forward becasue its the only income they have and also for fear of being deported in a way that criminalizes them. In the last three years the report shows San Francisco shut down 400 of the parlors. They do this by using code enformcent inspections to check in on businesses that stand out. Polaris lists some of the warning signs are extremely low prices compared to the average in the area, late night hours, clientele based mostly on men, covered windows, and an appearance that the employees are either living at the parlor or are being brought to work in groups. Traffickers also take to the internet using sites like wechat and kakaotalk to recruit victims. Sot vanessa russell, love never fails to reach them in their native language offer them a job that is very differnt from what they are experiencing so certainly there is an opportunity to do some digital stings.

Antihuman trafficking organzation polaris found an average of around 200 illicit massage parlors in both San Francisco and san jose each. A task force with the city of San Francisco is actively combatting the problem but with a major hurdle. Sot vanessa russell, love never fails many will not come forward becasue its the only income they have and also for fear of being deported in a way that criminalizes them. In the last three years the report shows San Francisco shut down 400 of the parlors. They do this by using code enformcent inspections to check in on businesses that stand out. Polaris lists some of the warning signs are extremely low prices compared to the average in the area, late night hours, clientele based mostly on men, covered windows, and an appearance that the employees are either living at the parlor or are being brought to work in groups. Traffickers also take to the internet using sites like wechat and kakaotalk to recruit victims. Sot vanessa russell, love never fails to reach them in their native language offer them a job that is very differnt from what they are experiencing so certainly there is an opportunity to do some digital stings.
