The Attorney General’s Office is cracking down on human trafficking. During a news conference on Monday, Attorney General Josh Hawley announced he’s starting a statewide task force for the cause. The task force will utilize consumer protection laws to make an attempt at stopping traffickers throughout the state. He named numerous people to the task force, including prosecutors, law enforcement officers, and representatives from advocacy groups all across the state. At this time, no Lake Area representatives have been named.
