supplementing the United Nations Convention against Transnational Organized Crime (Trafficking in Persons Protocol) defines trafficking in persons as constituting three elements: (i) an “action”, being recruitment, transportation, transfer, harbouring or receipt of persons; (ii) a ‘means’ by which that action is achieved (threat or use of force or other forms of coercion, abduction, fraud, deception, abuse of power or a position of vulnerability, and the giving or receiving of payments or benefits to achieve consent of a person having control over another person); and (iii) a “purpose” (of the action): namely, exploitation. 1 The definition makes clear, in Article 3(b), that consent of the victim to the intended exploitation is irrelevant when any of these ‘means’ have been used. All three elements must be present to

    KATHERINE FERNANDEZ RUNDLE STATE ATTORNEY ELEVENTH JUDICIAL CIRCUIT 8 IN AND FOR MIAMI-DADE COUNTY FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 2 Charged in Separate Human Trafficking Cases Arrests focused on procuring for prostitution activities Miami (August 13, 2021) - Miami-Dade State Attorney Katherine Fernandez Rundle, City of Miami Police Chief Art Acevedo and City of Hialeah Police Chief Sergio Velazquez announce the arrest of two individuals for their independent involvement in the alleged procuring and facilitating of prostitution services in the City of Miami and in the City of Hialeah. In both cases, information and police assistance supplied to the Miami- Dade State Attorney’s Office Human Trafficking Task Force proved pivotal in the arrests of 32-year-old Aleksandra S. Soboleva A/K/A Karina and 31-year-old Brian Rodriguez. “Sadly, there are still individuals in our community who feel that forcing young women into prostitution is an acceptable way to make a living,” said State Attorney Katherine Fernandez Rundle. “Such activity demeans the women involved, reducing their humanity to the level of walking cash machines. Rescuing these victims is the goal of the Miami-Dade State Attorney’s Office Human Trafficking Task Force.” In the City of Miami case, Aleksandra S. Soboleva has been charged with: • 1 count of Deriving Support from the Proceeds of Prostitution • 1 count of Unlawful Use of a Two-Way Communications Device • 1 count of Renting Space to be Used for Prostitution • 1 count of Soliciting, Inducing or Procuring Another to Commit Prostitution • 1 count of Direct Another to a Place of Prostitution Soboleva’s charges arise from a City of Miami police operation at a massage parlor located at 4315 NW 7th Street, Suite #37B in Miami.

  • How the Criminalization of Procuring Affects Sex Workers in Canada
    217 Wagadu Volume 8 Fall 2010 TEN ILLEGAL LIVES, LOVES, AND WORK: HOW THE CRIMINALIZATION OF PROCURING AFFECTS SEX WORKERS IN CANADA Emily van der Meulen1 Abstract2: Based on interviews with sex workers and advocates of decriminalization in Toronto, Canada, this article argues that aspects of the Criminal Code’s procuring legislation has detrimental impacts on sex workers’ daily realities and relationships. While the direct exchange of sexual services for money is not illegal in Canada, the laws that surround prostitution-related activities criminalize common work situations as well as sex worker’s personal and business relationships. Sex workers’ lived and intimate knowledge lend them a greater awareness of the effects and consequences of the current legislative framework as well as a greater awareness of what social and legal changes are necessary to improve their lives. Introduction Sex workers have a unique insight and expertise regarding their industry, the role it plays in Canadian society, and the ways in which regulatory schemes will impact their business. Above all, law and policy makers should listen to sex workers in order to understand how the laws affect them, which is a necessary step in ensuring that Canada’s laws comply with the guarantees and protections enshrined in the Charter and other human rights instruments (Childs et. al., 2006, p. 9) Over the past two decades, research on sex work in Canada has largely focused on the effects of the Criminal Code on the vulnerability of, and violence towards, sex working communities (Allinott et al., 2004; Betteridge, 2005; Childs et al., 2006; Hanger & Maloney, 2006; Lewis, Maticka-Tyndale, Shaver & Schramm, 2005; Jeffrey & MacDonald, 2007; Lowman, 1998; Lowman, 2000; Lowman & Fraser, 1995; Maticka-Tyndale, Lewis, Clark, © Wagadu 2011 ISSN: 1545-6196 Demystifying Sex Work and Sex Workers 218 Zubick & Young, 1999; Miller, 1993; Pyett & Warr, 1997; Star, 2006; van der Meulen & Durisin, 2008).

  • Selected Legal Tools for Maintaining Government Contractor Accountability
    Selected Legal Tools for Maintaining Government Contractor Accountability September 26, 2018 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov R45322 SUMMARY R45322 Selected Legal Tools for Maintaining September 26, 2018 Government Contractor Accountability David H. Carpenter Federal procurement statutes and the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) establish largely Legislative Attorney uniform policies and procedures applicable to government contracts “to deliver on a timely basis the best value product or service to the [government], while maintaining the public’s trust and Kathleen Ann Ruane fulfilling public policy objectives.” To meet these ends, federal agencies have a number of legal Legislative Attorney tools at their disposal to help ensure a contractor adequately performs a contract or, if warranted, to hold a contractor accountable for performance failures or misconduct: Corrective Actions. In many instances, the FAR requires procurement contracts to include “inspection clauses” that explicitly authorize procuring agencies to require contractors to remove, correct, or replace rejected goods, or reperform services (together, to take “corrective actions”) for failing to conform to contract specifications and requirements. Relatedly, inspection clauses often authorize agencies to make equitable cost reductions or seek repayment to account for all of the costs associated with deficient services that cannot be reperformed or goods the agency received and accepted despite the deficiencies. Incentive Fees. Under certain circumstances, procuring agencies are permitted to incentivize contractors with performance- based payments. These “incentive fees” can be an effective contractor accountability measure because they can be paid to reward contractors for meeting or exceeding goals or standards contemplated in the contract or withheld or reduced when contractors fail to meet or exceed those goals or standards.

  • Bdsm, Kink, and Consent: What the Law Can Learn from Consent-Driven Communities
    BDSM, KINK, AND CONSENT: WHAT THE LAW CAN LEARN FROM CONSENT-DRIVEN COMMUNITIES Mika Galilee-Belfer* Millions of Americans participate in consensual, mutually agreed-upon activities such as bondage, dominance, and submission—collectively referred to as BDSM or kink—yet the relationship between individual consent to such participation and consent as legally understood and defined is imperfect at best. Because the law has not proven adept at adjudicating disputes that arise in BDSM situations, communities that practice BDSM have adopted self-policing mechanisms (formal and informal) aimed at replicating and even advancing the goals and protections of conventional law enforcement. This self-policing is particularly important because many jurisdictions hold there can be no consent to the kind of experiences often associated with BDSM; this is true in practice irrespective of the existence of statutory language regarding consent. In this Note, I compare legal communities and BDSM communities across three variables: how consent is defined, how violations are comparably adjudicated, and the types of remedies available by domain. In the process, I examine what norm-setting and rule adjudication look like when alternative communities choose to define, and then operate within, norms and controls that must be extra-legal by both necessity and design.

  • Bdsm and Sexual Assault in the Rules of Evidence: a Proposal
    BDSM AND SEXUAL ASSAULT IN THE RULES OF EVIDENCE: A PROPOSAL JOHN E. LUDWIG∞ ABSTRACT Propensity evidence has long been generally inadmissible, but in 1994, Rule 413 was enacted to admit evidence of prior “sexual assaults” committed by a defendant in a current sexual assault case for any purpose. Rule 413(d) contains several different definitions of “sexual assault,” or certain “crime[s] under federal or state law,” including (4): “deriving sexual pleasure or gratification from inflicting death, bodily injury, or physical pain on another person.” Unlike other enumerated definitions, the definition in subsection (4) is the only one that does not contain a “non-consent” qualifier, meaning that even consensual sexual activities can be “crimes” under the Rule. Despite the lack of scholarly attention to this issue, the constraints on judicial discretion to preclude such evidence, combined with the particularly prejudicial nature of sexual act evidence, can have devastating and unintended effects on civil and criminal defendants. Here, I propose a simple amendment to Rule 413 that makes clear that a “sexual assault” is only an act performed without consent, and provides an appropriate definition of “consent” in a newly-added subsection (e). I also critique the underlying proposition—that prior BDSM acts are relevant or probative of propensity to commit sexual assault—thereby undercutting any rational justification for the rule as presently written.
