Organized Crime & Trafficking in Persons

For a Department of Justice-funded project to study the link between transnational organized crime and trafficking of persons, withour partner, Texas Christian University, GC is doing case law research to identify organized crime networks involved in sex, labor, or organ trafficking. The project is looking at closed cases to help create victim profiles, perpetrator profiles, and to analyze the crimes for recruiting, marketing, and retailing techniques and patterns, as well as other related issues.
