I enjoyed it, it is interesting to follow them on their investigative journey. I am surprised to hear that paying for sex is not illegal.

Can't believe that a 19 year old girl would do that. The guy living in the uni halls was funny.

This reminds me of another documentary I saw about sex trafficking, think it was on HBO and was about a Ukrainian guy searching to find his wife who was taken when she was pregnant.

Really amazes me that someone could do this to another person all for some money.

Good series of programmes - absolutely pathetic sentences handed out to them in the end though. The longest was given to the person least involved with the actual trafficking side (the money launderer), and the woman at the top was given three years in Thailand when they said she'd be likely to get 20?! ******* ridiculous, most of them will be out in half that anyway, seeing as they were given three years or less.

Personally, I think this should be up there with the likes of rape, murder and paedophilia in terms of sentencing, as it's possibly the most depraved, degrading thing one human can do to another. Makes me angry even writing about it now.

Agree 100%.

Thought the program itself was excellent, slightly slow to get started but by half way through the first episode I was hooked.
