"As Missouri's Attorney General, the greatest responsibility I have is to protect Missourians and their families. Human trafficking is modern-day slavery. We must demand an end to trafficking happening here in Missouri to children as well as adults. The Missouri Attorney General's Office is on the forefront of combating this exploitation. By working with law enforcement partners and advocates from across the state, we will end this practice and ensure no one's life is for sale."
