I had one of those Chris Hansen shows playing in the background while working, when I heard something that perked up my ears. Usually when Chris asks where someone met the decoy, it's something like Grindr or some other weird fringe dating site (in this series). This time when Chris asked where they met, the pedo's response was bleeped out. They're usually not shy about naming some pretty vile-sounding sites, so I was curious why this of all things was censored.
I'm like 90% positive the guy says they met on
"Seeking Arrangements", an escort site that thread veterans are familiar with. For the uninitiated, this is where Boogie met the majority of his sugar babies (though it's not confirmed that Dezi came from there, Boogie claims they met on Instagram).
What's interesting about this is the pedo outright says "someone told me there are young girls [on SA] that are getting in trouble and have no interest in living their life straight". So apparently pedos know that they can find underage girls on Seeking. Aside from that, the fact that Chris Hansen and a PD
chose to put up decoy listings on SA should be proof enough of a known issue. I'll add the context that part of the purpose of this Hansen series is to not just expose pedos, but shine a light on the human trafficking issue by working with police task forces. Do you see what I'm getting at?
The accusation against Boogie is that he's been participating in/enabling human trafficking for as long as he's been using SA. The broader accusation against Seeking is that they provide a platform for human trafficking.
To be clear, people can traffic themselves. The decoy's scenario was that she was an underage girl looking to make money by being an escort.
"All commercial sex involving a minor is legally considered human trafficking. Commercial sex involving an adult is human trafficking if the person providing commercial sex is doing so against his or her will as a result of force, fraud or coercion." Point being, the types of coercion (& force/fraud) Boogie attempted on various sugar babies to get them to stay could be seen as attempted trafficking.
Last thing. That linked page also mentions labor trafficking. While being Boogie's live-in bang maid isn't really a conventional type of labor, there's still an argument to be made there.
