Abstract
Sex trafficking is a heinous act which deserves the world’s attention. In the US, the issue has been downplayed to the point where it is made to seem like a non-issue. However, the truth is that greedy individuals are stealing the future of young girls and boys and selling it to promiscuous individuals who seek pleasure even at the expense of young lives and bright futures. The main goal of this study was to establish the extent of sex trafficking in America. As per the results, the country needs prompt plans and apt laws which can help save the lives of people who are either shipped offshores or taken to different parts of the country to pleasure fellow men. The situation is sickening, the numbers are shocking, and it is time the US takes a stand against sex trafficking. The country cannot afford to stay silence anymore.

Human trafficking is one of the most extensive and heinous crimes the world has ever witnessed. It occurs in two forms: sex trafficking and labor trafficking and in both cases, people with basic human rights are treated as objects, and a means to an end. This scourge is not just a global issue because even in the United States, the reports have been appalling. Sex trafficking business in America has been thriving over the years, and currently, it is one of the most lucrative business options. People have stooped to the level of trafficking fellow human beings purposefully for sexual exploitation. Moreover, the perpetrators behind sex trafficking often target children which makes the situation sad. Teenagers and young adults have been enslaved while others have been forced into prostitution. These children have seen their dreams and aspirations squashed with greedy men whose love for money supersedes their regard for humanity. Sex trafficking is a heinous crime and America together with the international community needs to institute tougher laws as well as repercussions for the sex trafficking perpetrators.
