Jeffrey Epstein’s arrest reminds us we need to keep fighting human trafficking

This week America was rocked by the news that multimillionaire Jeffrey Epstein was arrested for running a sex-trafficking ring of minors.

The details, revealed by a federal indictment recently unsealed, are still emerging, but what we know so far paints a grim picture: Epstein, apparently with the help of several women, groomed and sexually exploited dozens of girls, some as young as 13 years old. Epstein, who has been under investigation for years, has once before been convicted of soliciting prostitution from underage girls.
