Original Note:
In the US it’s quite common to charge consenting adults involved in Sex Work for Sex Trafficking instead of prostitution because: the thresholds on burden of proof are lower, Sex Trafficking casts a wider net, gets more media attention & financial support for police force https://www.huffpost.com/entry/police-mislabel-nationwide-prostitution-arrests-as_b_59a18c77e4b0a62d0987af79/amp
