Recommendation

As part of a community awareness campaign, Sgt. Joe Bermudez and Caridad Mas-Batchelor of Florida’s Miami-Dade Police Department delve into the realities of the crime of human trafficking. They point out that it is often misunderstood and confused with smuggling, but community members can learn to recognize a set of telltale signs that someone is a trafficking victim. This simple, informational video, produced by Citizens Crime Watch, focuses on community education and will be particularly useful for civic groups and local leaders, including executives, teachers and clergy.

Take-Aways

  • Often misunderstood by the public, human trafficking has a specific legal definition.
  • Community awareness can help fight human trafficking.
  • Coercion of a trafficking victim can take many forms.
