[quote=Anonymous]As a former HSI special agent, I’ll make a couple of comments:  I worked and managed child exploitation cases for many years.  When I worked there, there were no written rules or policies about reviewing the child porn videos.  They didn’t have to be witnessed or monitored.  There were no steadfast time limits for working those types of cases (I knew agents that worked them for 10+ years).  The agents working those cases and reviewing those videos became good at compartmentaling.  Same as a homicide detective or medical examiner.

As far as this new panic/hysteria over human trafficking, I don’t really get it.  I’ve noticed that some of my former colleagues who never worked cases at all (out of laziness), have all of a sudden sunken their teeth into human trafficking (even though they had the opportunity to work these cases years ago).  It’s like the new fad that I guess gives them job security, the opportunity to travel around the world and attend conferences and pad their resumes for post-HSI (retirement) careers.  I understand that any publicity or awareness is great, but what is the general public supposed to do about it.  It’s like saying awareness about serial killers is helpful.  Sure, but what is John Q Citizen supposed to do?  And now we’ve expanded the phrase human trafficker to include pimps.  When I worked the street, most prostitutes put themselves out there because they were drug addicts, were down and out or did it voluntarily.  Most were not physically forced to do it.  [/quote]
