Note, most of the arrests mentioned in this article were for prostitution. Great use of FBI resources in the weeks leading to Orlando. Way to go, FBBi's.
Really? A guy was arrested for attempting to "buy" a 7 year old and you are upset with this? I think prostitution should be legal as much as the next guy but 7 year olds? Like it or not, prostitution is illegal and who are we to question who should be investigated or not.
None of us know the facts of Jessy's case but if she was arrested for human trafficking, it could be as simple as she gave a girl a ride or she was paying for a hotel room for another girl.

People need to let the free market system work. Banning prostitution is an example of big government and unintended consequences. Isn't it our bodies and we have the right to choose?

Which is fine when those individuals have made that choice for themselves and not been coerced or forced into it.
Re: The TS Jessy Dubai Case
To quote directly (with emphasis added) from the article, "Of the adults arrested, nine were arrested for trafficking and 26 were arrested for prostitution, the FBI said."
I commend the FBI for arresting the perv who solicited the 7 year old, and as far as I'm concerned they can cut off his dick and balls and feed them to the dogs. But why is the FBI using this useful endeavor as a pretext for running stings to bust hookers, possibly including Jessi?
As others have noted, human trafficking laws are vague and over broad, and have become a tool of choice in the Feminazi's war on prostitution.
this bust produced both a good outcome, taking Denver resident James Brent Anderson out of circulation, and some bad ones for the 26 escorts.
It leaves me feeling that we have another "War on Drugs" in the making, with Jessi as one of its victims. And look how that war turned out. World beating incarceration rates, wholesale havoc in minority communities, and a drug problem which has metastasized into the white middle classes.
As Sherman said, Wars are hell. Hobbyists, you could be next on the firing line.
Re: The TS Jessy Dubai Case
Bail is at the discretion of the court and sometimes it is not correlated to the crime. Flight risk and/or continuous danger to the community are the determining factors at a bail hearing. $40,000 or $100,000 it doesn't matter, there is really no guideline to the amount made in bail. In addition, when your are arrested you can be held 24-48 hours before you have a bail hearing. Failure to do so can result in you being free to go. So with those factors, there is not much to go on unless you know what she has been charged with.

I live in Los Angeles and maybe there is more tolerance here but most of these jobs do not require a privileged background that affords ample educational opportunities early in life nor the luck of the draw. However, they do require consistency, punctuality, patience, the tolerance to work with others, and the desire to blend into the mainstream. I recognize that not all TS women may want those things.
um all of those jobs you named are low paying jobs where it would be next to impossible to have 30k sitting around in the bank which is the point of what nikka, steven, and wendy were saying.

Prostitution in Colorado is a misdemeanor. Again, she is facing multiple charges including one charge that is a felony. We have no clue what those charges are except "human trafficking". If it is human trafficking, there is another person involved. So, it isn't simple prostitution. Jessi might not be a victim. TS "stars" have fallen to the dark side before. For example, Sylvia Boots murdered somebody and Sheeba Starr killed somebody in a car crash while she fled the police.

True, but she also said she went from being fine to 75k in debt in 3 days. No idea what her financial situation is or what is actually going on, but she wasn't completely lacking resources.
Re: The TS Jessy Dubai Case
Here is the Colorado statute on human trafficking18-3-501. Trafficking in adults. (1) A person commits trafficking in adults if he
or she:
(a) Sells, exchanges, barters, or leases an adult and receives any money or other consideration or thing of value for the adult as a result of such transaction; or (b) Receives an adult as a result of a transaction described in paragraph (a) of this subsection (1). ]
(2) As used in this section, "adult" means a person eighteen years of age or older.
(3) Trafficking in adults is a class 3 felony unless the adult or adults who have been trafficked are illegally present in the United States, in which case trafficking in
Colorado Revised Statutes 2013 Title 18 247
adults is a class 2 felony.
So the state claims Jessi received something of value in exchange for arranging some P4P. So does the player on the opposite side of the transaction. So hobbyists, beware.
Prosecutors routinely overcharge defendants to squeeze them for plea bargains and or to snitch.
since this very broad statute used aggressively is a threat to everyone in the game, it behooves this board to support Jessi's defense
