A federal jury has convicted 36 people for their roles in an international sex trafficking ring, making the case the largest of its kind in the United States, prosecutors have announced.
U.S. Attorney Erica MacDonald revealed that the final five defendants were found guilty in U.S. District Court in St. Paul, Minnesota late last week.

I thought they just got started. Where are all the 'famous names' we were promised?
All I saw were the words “large” and “bust”.
Thais
No Clintons. No Podestas. Incomplete.
“...This is just one case. We’ve had sex trafficking busts in our area (another state) recently. I’m thankful these people are being rounded up.”
Same here. I noticed a lot of child porn and human traffickers being arrested within the last year. Way more than I remember in the previous Administration.
Not sure if President Trump is responsible for this up tick in bringing these scum to justice, but it’s definitely under his watch. The real test will be if these evil traffickers get the sentences they deserve.
Eventually they may find someone less afraid of their rich and influential clients than they are of prison.
Well, it’s about sex trafficking adult women ... not small boys and girls.
They arrested 35 Thais and 1 white guy.
They show the mugshot of the white guy
Where’s Slick? Haven’t seen him in a bit.
The previous four administrations derailed prosecutions after the initial arrests.
I wonder who initiated the federal investigation and provided the evidence for the federal prosecutor and jury. It couldn’t be the FBI since the rank and file are as worthless as FBI leadership.
“It couldnt be the FBI since the rank and file are as worthless as FBI leadership.”
Sadly, like with other criminal enterprises, they may just be taking out the competition.
Laws are for little people. I mean that:
Sessions showed that the Swamp and its outside-DC denizens are not subject to the same laws as We The People.
Weinstein was a sacrificial swine who became excess baggage when Hillary lost. Had she won, the Clinton bag-man would have remained untouchable.
As it is, he is being handled with kid gloves.
Only the ordinary criminals feel the weight of tbe law - and, of course, Trump and anyone who ever said hello to him.
Look at how Mueller and Weissmann have not only survived but thrived after all their prosecutorial crimes.
I pray that doesn’t happen with this Administration.
Way too many evil people out there. On both sides of the political spectrum.
