Once again as we all prepare for the 2025 Super Bowl between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles held on Feb 9, 2025, at the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans, there are headlines everywhere about the heightened concerns related to human trafficking. Law enforcement officials are warning visitors that they have increased their presence in New Orleans to ensure that young people are not lured into exploitation, and no one is victimized by sex buyers.
Hospitality businesses such as hotels, motels, Resorts, and airlines, Uber drivers and travel businesses are all being trained to recognize signs of human trafficking. Posters are being installed in bathrooms in businesses across the area.
It is true that for many years, there has been an increase in the number of cases of human trafficking at large scale events. They are often referred to as “circuit girls”. These are girls engaged in commercial sex who are brought across the nation to provide sex services at large scale events where there is increased demand.
Be sure to join us as we discuss sex buying and selling at these events and many of the dangers involved in purchasing commercial sex including having your photo taken, blackmail by sex sellers and their agents, connection to organized crime and most importantly the enhanced risk of being arrested.
