No, sex trafficking is not a minor crime. |

He was just trying to be one with the ladies. |

He's not accussed of sex trafficking. This was a sting operation with no actual transaction and no accusations of prior activity. |

He didn’t know that |

Even if the transaction were as he intended, the accusation would not be of sex trafficking. |

He communicated with someone he thought he was making a deal with for sex. Traveled to the location where the sex was to take place. May be one of the men with the exact cash amount requested for sex. Actual transaction is not part of the crime of solicitation AND the fact there is no accusation of prior activity: we have no idea if that is true and even if it is, so? |

None of this has anything to do with sex trafficking. He attempted to enter into a transaction with a consenting adult of a type that's illegal in his state but not in all states. This is a minor crime, should he even be convicted of it. |

| Well, I can see why he could only access it by paying for it. |

I'd meant that he was not targeted based on prior suspicion. His arrest appears to have been incidental to the greater goal of this particular police operation. |
