E64:Punishing the Wrong People: How Criminalizing Sex Work Hurts Trafficking Victims

Send us Fan MailLet’s start with the lie: that criminalizing sex work is done to protect the most vulnerable. That it helps victims. That it stops traffickers. That if you just lock up the pimps and fine the buyers, the violence disappears. But in reality, many of the people being arrested, fined, and jailed are the ones who need help the most.This episode isn’t about theory. It’s about lived experience. About survivors who were punished instead of protected. About laws that don’t just fail to save lives they make it harder for people to escape.Support the showCheck out our socials!Thank you so much for listening 💖
