This is probably a stupid question but don't understand it because it keeps happening more now than ever especially since Diddy. If I take my girlfriend to a restaurant she does not want to go to across state lines is that sex trafficking? Since we will probably have sex later?

It takes different forms, but one horrifying example is smuggling people in from poverty-stricken countries and forcing them to be sex slaves. People with no resources that have very little chance of rescue.
