When we talk about the criminal organizationsthe transnational criminal organizations that smuggle people across the bordermost recently in the context of these unaccompanied minor children who came from Central America whose parents paid human smugglersthe cartels. reallylets say $5.000 apiece. these parents have no knowledge of what will happen to their children once they turn them over to these cartel members. Indeed. these criminal organizations are engaged in the money business. anything that will make a buck. They will traffic in children. they will smuggle immigrants. they will smuggle drugs. With regard to these same criminal organizations. somehow. some way. we tend to compartmentalize our brains and say: Well. sex trafficking is different from illegal immigration and smuggling. But it is not. It has the same corridors funded by the same people and operated by the same transnational criminal organizations.
