296 – Understanding and Pursuing Labor Trafficking Cases Collaboratively, with Derek Marsh

Dr. Sandie Morgan is joined by Derek Marsh, the Associate Director of the Global Center for Women and Justice at Vanguard University. The two discuss the importance of shedding light on labor trafficking as well as understanding labor trafficking cases collaboratively.

Key Points

  • The same approach and attention given to sex trafficking should be used when approaching labor trafficking as both are crimes.
  • While labor trafficking cases have decreased, collaboration when pursuing cases gives victims to opportunity to be liberated and ensures those who have committed the crime are held accountable.
  • Investigating and identifying labor trafficking is difficult without collaboration because of its tendency to involve foreign nationals.
  • It’s important to have knowledge of the signs of labor trafficking to keep individuals who could possible be in a labor trafficking situation from being exploited.
