I don't know, how did this become a Federal crime?

IIRC - Buford T. Justice tried to nab The Bandit on violating the Mann Act.

IIRC, at least one of the charges against Charles Manson came under the Mann Act because of the young women he moved around in his cult, but that would have been a bit less serious than the other charges against him!!
