Human Trafficking - SVU Detectives - Det. Rosheen Lord and Det. Art Volk

Two experienced Detectives from the Special Victims Unit (SVU) at VicPD talk to us about Human Trafficking (HT).  HT is a complicated crime that involves Force, Fraud and Coercion - it occurs in stages and it is very difficult to get out of.  Human Trafficking is one of Canada's fastest growing crimes.   Victoria Police doesn't currently have an HT Unit but many frontline officers have been trained by these Detectives to watch out for signs that might indicate the crime is occurring.   If you know anyone or are concerned you're involved in Human Trafficking you can call:Canadian Human Trafficking Hotline at 1-833-900-1010, or find more information atChildren of the Street at 1-877-551-6611.https://www.canadianhumantraffickinghotline.ca/https://www.childrenofthestreet.com/Sound editing done by Todd Mason.More about the Victoria City Police Union (VCPU):-       Tweet us at https://twitter.com/VicPD_Union-       Follow us on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/vicpd_union/-       Find us on FaceBook at https://www.facebook.com/truebluevictoria/-       Visit our website for information at https://truebluevic.ca/-       Email us at [email protected] for any media inquiries or requests to be on the True Blue Podcast
