EX MADAM CALLS FOR NEW YORK TO BECOME A ZERO TOLERANCE SEX TRAFFICKING STATE
Florida will soon become the state with the harshest sex trafficking laws. Last week, the House Judiciary Committee unanimously advanced a bill to strengthen and broaden state statutes against human trafficking in Florida. The bill recognizes the multi-jurisdictional nature of these crimes so it would bring it them up to a federal level, and would authorize wiretapping and forfeiture much like RICO offenses.
Kristin Davis, the former Manhattan Madam, who supplied prostitutes for Eliot Spitzer , was convicted for promoting prostitution and served four months on Rikers Island, today, stated that “New York is not tough enough on sex trafficking crimes”. Davis now heads Hope House, a non-profit set up to combat sex trafficking.
