Summary
Federal prosecutors are cracking down on sex traffickers along Seattle’s Aurora Avenue, with one man sentenced to 20 years and two others indicted this year — but residents say arrests aren’t stopping the problem. A multi-agency task force is working to protect victims and build cases, though locals are frustrated, installing barriers and demanding more street-level enforcement and resources for survivors, especially young girls. Prosecutors note investigations take time, and not every case makes it to trial — but they’re committed to holding traffickers accountable.
