The Portland Police Bureau is releasing a new edition of the Talking Beat podcast featuring a discussion about sex trafficking.

Every year, women, men and children are trafficked worldwide – including in the Portland. Human Trafficking—which includes sex trafficking—occurs every day on our streets. Not only does this crime deeply impact its victims, it can also have wide-reaching criminal components that include illegal drugs, guns and livability issues that affect neighborhoods.

The podcast includes a discussion on the collaborative and victim-centered approach of the Human Trafficking Unit, which in addition to PPB includes Victim Advocate and human trafficking survivor Robin Miller and Multnomah County Senior Deputy District Attorney JR Ujifusa.
