The Null Device

The BBC has a disturbing exposé of the sex slave trafficking racket:

Another Latvian girl who applied for a job as an au pair, was told that she would be met at the airport by her family. The "family" turned out to be a pimp who took her straight to a brothel where she was expected to service her first client that first night. She was never paid for that night nor for the three months of sex slavery which followed...
"You can get up to ten years for selling or importing drugs into Denmark and the longest sentence anyone has ever received for importing women is a year, and even then the Judge apologised to the man in court, saying it was a long sentence. You could cry!"
The policy in Denmark and the UK, of removing women quickly without allowing them to give evidence, could well increase the number of women who become ensnared. In Copenhagen, Dorit Otzen says, "the police give the girls twenty four hours and then they're out. The pimps just go and collect another batch week after week, month after month."

(It's interesting to note that the article mentions Australia as a model for needed anti-sex-slavery legislation.)
