Backpage’s Co-founder and CEO, As Well As Several Backpage-Related Corporate Entities, Enter Guilty Pleas

541 US Attorneys news releases from 2013-today mentioning backpage.
that's just federal.
now we dive into the info ops.
Backpage was part of an alternative weekly media empire.
They used their media arm to slam all criticism of backpage[.]com, which was making them HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS.
Spring 2012: what they did to @NickKristof observer.com/2012/03/the-ba…
They used their revenue from child sex trafficking to try to put another weekly out of business, by selling below-cost ads in their paper. to cut the competition off at the knees.
they could, because they were earning HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS on child rape.

They tried to weaponize the first amendment.
Backpage tried to claim, for YEARS, that they were not responsible for the content posted on their website, they were just the medium content producers used to publish advertisements.
That was false.

Remember when the democrats said Trump was lying about the human #trafficking occurring at the border? They said it was something he saw in a movie...
Why are Californian politicians so against securing our border?

side note - the first set of numbers in the original post are only through June 30, 2018. That means 2018 numbers likely were about the same as 2017 & 2016, as pictured above.

Imagine if @realDonaldTrump law firm was linked to #Backpage and #ChildTrafficking the #MSM would be going nuts but OBAMA's attorney and his WH Counsel Law firm has and not a peep. Time to talk about #PerkinsCoie again and how @DNC HRC & BHO law firm are!
Not only did Perkins Coie represent Osama Bin Laden's right hand man and got him free... but they helped destroy the values of our nation.

Today, Moldova is regarded as the poorest country in Europe. Moldova is primarily a source country for victims of human #Trafficking, who are frequently forced to become sex workers in the Middle East. endslaverynow.org/blog/articles/… via @EndSlaveryNow
#sextrafficking
During the era of the USSR, human trafficking by crime groups was low. However, human trafficking occurred on a massive scale at the hands of the state. In the 1940s and 1950s, more than 250,000 Moldovans were deported to labor camps in Siberia.

Every single person who lamented the seizure of #backpage #backpageseized needs to read this. Especially page 31, the beginning of Section E.

Don't cry for these people that were arrested.

Fun fact: a lot of the women and minors being exploited in the illegal sex trafficking trade -get this! - don't get to keep any of the money they 'earn' by being bought and sold.
Let's dispense with the fantasy that BackPage didn't know that many of the girls being trafficked for sex on their site were underage.
