Thats 2 campaign chairs for Donald Trump arrested...and Trump won both those states they were working in...so ALL his campaign chairs should be looked at.
All of Washington is invloved its not just democrats. Of course Donald has not done the arrests personally but he has allowed our states to go after these guys. Do you really think that they would have arrested a VP of Dyncorp if Donald Trump wasn't president?
maybe so but i prefer to be a little more optimistic and see that things have changed from the Obama times. 10 times the arrests of the previous year and more arrests then the past like 5 years already. If you don't think its positive then that is your choice.
The bottom line is that over the past 8 years there have been on average 1155 arrests per year. This year alone in the first 4 month there have been 4011!!!!!! 4 times the amount.
These arrests were for violations of one of the U.S. Code Sections listed in this table's Methodology. Arrests were not included for those made in a joint investigation with other agencies when a state or local code was used nor for Child Exploitation cases when a different provision of the U.S.Code was used for the basis of arrest.
Stats NEED context. The FBI doesn't count busts made in conjunction with local and state law enforcement, or busts where a local or state statute is referenced in the charges.
So there really is NO strong evidence for a rise in arrests. Let alone a rise attributable to any one source.
You referenced the 1155 average arrests p/yr, (According to UCR crime data I presume, seeing as how most of these were FBI related arrests)
UCR only records arrests made STRICTLY UNDER TITLE 18 of the US code.
So it's not an accurate representation of the TOTAL ARRESTS MADE P/YR, only a total of arrests made where Title 18 was the only statute referenced in the charges.

How has he "allowed" those states to go after them?
Why not?...and these are ONLY arrests...do you really think there will be any convictions?
These arrests are just to placate the masses while the elite walk free and taunt you because they know they are untouchable;

How many of these investigations started under the Obama administration?
Solentgreenispeople ago
some of the major busts are over time but most of the April ones are not while Obama was in power.

So it's fair to say this is nothing more than a political narrative and has no bearing on the actual course of FBI investigative procedures?
Especially on a state level?

this article shows how many arrests per year http://www.11alive.com/news/local/human-trafficking-arrests-hit-record-high-in-2016-/392507923 Why are you trying to discredit this information?
shizzle_mcbobblehead ago
I'm not, I'm saying its average.
You referenced the 1155 average arrests p/yr, (According to UCR crime data I presume, seeing as how most of these were FBI related arrests)
UCR only records arrests made STRICTLY UNDER TITLE 18 of the US code.
So it's not an accurate representation of the TOTAL ARRESTS MADE P/YR, only a total of arrests made where Title 18 was the only statute referenced in the charges.
Solentgreenispeople ago
its not based only on UCR data if I went by just that it would be for example year 2015 750 total arrests and 2014 952 total arrests
shizzle_mcbobblehead ago
Seeing as how there are only two metrics for nationwide arrest data, you're still not getting a comprehensive look at the total arrests per year.
FYI, UCR has 980 2015 arrests for child exploitation in general, which would be a better metric for this then strictly human trafficking.
Not trying to come off dickish... Just want to make sure all the ducks are in a row...
