Summary

During the FIFA World Cup, law enforcement and nonprofits teamed up in Tarrant County to combat human trafficking with a surge of coordinated operations—resulting in 60 arrests and 45 victims connected to resources. While major events don’t inherently spike trafficking, they shine a spotlight on existing networks through the “flashlight effect,” boosting detection and response. Experts stress that lasting change requires tackling root causes like poverty and demand for commercial sex—not just reacting to events.
