Where the boys are

As rightly noted by one of my students in our Human Trafficking Law seminar at FSU College of Law, much press and many studies fail to recognize that men and boys are also victims of human trafficking.

This article (http://www.thegavoice.com/index.php/news/atlanta-news-menu/2328-atlanta-drag-personality-arrested-on-human-trafficking-charges) describes how in one instance, boys were lured to the offender's home for sex, but then not permitted to leave, and allegedly locked in a closet. Sigh, boys, too, are vulnerable to exploitation and abuse.
