<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">Defendant was charged with three violations of federal sex trafficking laws, specifically the sexual exploitation of minor girls and women in commercial sex acts. One of the
victims was still a minor at the time of trial. The other two were 18 or older, although one had been a minor at the time of the trafficking. The government made a motion in limine seeking a protective order preventing the use of any of the victims' full names
during the trial, and keeping confidential the identities of the minor victims. Defendant opposed the motion. Under The Child Victims' and Child Witnesses' Rights Act, 18 U.S.C. § 3509(d)(3)(A), a protective order may be issued concealing the identity of
a minor victim. On this basis, the court found it was appropriate to conceal the identity of the one minor victim. However, the court determined that it was appropriate to conceal the identities of all the victims, including the two adult victims, under additional
statutory authority and case law. The court noted that the Crime Victims' Rights Act, 18 U.S.C. § 3771, provided statutory support for protecting these victims because it requires that crime victims be reasonably protected from the accused, and that they be
treated with fairness and respect for their dignity and privacy. Additionally, referencing case law from multiple jurisdictions, the court stated that protective orders may be granted in favor of protecting an adult victim of sex trafficking because of the
legitimate and substantial concern over "the likely adverse personal, professional, and physiological consequences of publically linking their identities to their past lives as sex workers." Applying this general law to the facts of the case, the court found
that all three victims' identities should be protected given the explicit nature of the testimony, concerns raised in the mental health evaluations, and possible safety issues. Although the court noted that the public did have a First Amendment interest in
access to full information, here the possibility of detrimental effects of disclosure outweighed the First Amendment interest in disclosure. Accordingly, the government's request for a protective order preventing the use and disclosure of the full names
of the victims during trial was granted. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">The governor of Kansas is expected to sign into law a new bill passed by the state's legislature to update the state's nearly decade-old human trafficking laws. The bill targets
the problem of commercial sexual exploitation of underage women, and seeks to eliminate the word "prostitution" from the laws as part of an effort to recognize survivors of sex trafficking as victims. It will also establish a fund for survivors, financed by
fines imposed on sex offenders. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
