This sounds like your typical entrapment sting for solicitation of a minor for sex, where a deputy pretends to be a minor.
guess that means you'll have to be a little more careful, eh?
sorry; not sorry...

Agreed.
No sympathy for these scumbags, but law enforcement tries to tack on "trafficking" to everything.
It's basically a form of marketing for them.

If you're planning to meet a 14 year old for sex, how are they getting to whatever location you're meeting them at? They aren't driving themselves.
Well, they can.
But "trafficking" involves using force to move them, which is literally impossible until the meetup.

How does a 14 year old girl randomly decide to start having sex with old guys for money? It is almost always put into their mind by an adult figure.
How are they managing the financial/business side of the transaction? Again, an adult is involved.
None of this was ever considered "trafficking" until very recently (funny enough, as weed legalization started and civil asset forfeiture was at risk).
Go read reviews of Taxi Driver from the year of its release. Tell me how many of them call Jodie Foster's character "trafficked".

If we're talking about the term "human trafficking" it makes a huge difference.

You do know police pretend to be minors and arrest perps for these crimes (just with more proper names), right? No minors ever exist.
You can't traffic a minor if that minor doesn't exist, my dude
So we will need to involve the minors in these operations? Why?
Or do we need to catch these guys after the full involvement with a minor so that we know their intentions are clear? So how far does a pedophile have to go with a child before it's a crime? The crime has to fully happen right? Conspiracy to and attempt of don't go far enough with crime involving children. We need the crime and the name of the child?

Dang, there were only two arrests in the Epstein case with one taking the whole rap..:

That’s what you want trafficking to be, not what it is in reality. The criminal statutes don’t require force, although force can certainly be part of what trafficking is.

Were you aware that criminal statutes criminalize attempts to commit crimes that aren’t carried out?

This
If the transition(s) are not somehow recorded in the system or video taped, then the must not exist in the dark. Thus he always wins the argument, because who can prove humans are evil, if they aren’t caught at every turn.
