Human Trafficking in the US

Question 8 • [HSHEAC] Health Sem 1 (26-27)

Is this a case of human trafficking? Why or why not?

Answer
A
no, because Eddie did not force Tonya to have sex with the other man
B
no, because Eddie did not make Tonya move to a new location as a result of the trafficking
C
yes, because Tonya was a minor when she had sex for money
D
yes, because it happened on more than one occasion

Explanation

Yes. When a minor is involved in a commercial sex act—sex in exchange for money or something of value—it is considered sex trafficking, even if no one used force or made the minor move. So the reason is that Tonya was a minor when she had sex for money, not that it happened repeatedly.
