S4 E12 - Red Herring - the trafficking crimes of Anthony Patterson and Janreani Bell CW/TW - mentions of sex trafficking, sextortion, mentions of sexual assault and abuse of minors. Sex trafficking is a crime that we don’t talk about much on this podcast, but we will moving forward. Sex trafficking is defined as the action or practice of illegally transporting people from one country or area to another for the purpose of sexual exploitation. Capture of the perpetrator or perpetrators in these crimes is seemingly impossible as they often work in groups, but with more public awareness being raised on these crimes, we all can start heading into the direction of more leverage and movement into investigating suspects of these crimes. Today we will be talking a bit about Anthony Patterson and Janreani Bell, both who are suspected to have been involved in a major sex trafficking bust. Special thanks to Jay Jones for appearing on today's episode.
