Sex Trafficking Charge Nuances

• 🧐 A colleague's perspective suggests the charge can sometimes be misapplied, potentially affecting individuals who don't see themselves as victims.
• 🚩 Public awareness campaigns about human trafficking are critiqued for focusing on rare scenarios of strangers abducting people, rather than the more common reality of coercion by known individuals.

Suge Knight's Pardon Prediction

• 🎤 Suge Knight, speaking from prison, predicted that President Trump might pardon Diddy if he is convicted.
