Policing sex traffic is much like policing regular traffic. You have to stand right there in the middle of it, telling those involved when to yield, go, go harder, etc.
Don't forget what a huge problem we're talking about here. Studies indicate there are over 600 million sex slaves in the U.S. alone, give or take.
