Being vigilant against human trafficking

Although human trafficking is not a known problem in Door County, one local agency wants you to be aware of the warning signs that indicate a person may be a victim of the crime. The FBI announced on Thursday that a $5,000 reward is being offered for information leading to the arrest of 38-year-old Adrian Edwards of Milwaukee. He is wanted for his involvement in the sex trafficking of a minor.    Help of Door County Domestic Violence Coordinator Karla Romero says Milwaukee is a hot spot for human trafficking. She shares some of the signs to look for someone who may be a victim of human trafficking.

 

 

Romero adds that you can call the National Human Trafficking Hotline at 1-888-373-7888 or contact local law enforcement to report any suspicious behavior that may appear to involve human trafficking. On Thursday, in New York,  Ghislaine Maxwell, the late Jeffry Epstein’s ex-girlfriend and longtime associate was found guilty on five of the six charges against her, including sex trafficking of a minor.
