NEW ORLEANS, LA (WWL-TV) -
Security in
New Orleans will be tight when the Super Bowl rolls into town in less than
three weeks and part of the focus for authorities will be to target a
disturbing form of organized crime.
Advocates
say human traffickers set up shop in Super Bowl host cities, trying to cash in
on the celebration. In fact, they said it's one of the largest human
trafficking events in the world.
WWL-TV reports police are
getting special training to identify possible victims.
"Between
federal law enforcement here in New Orleans, state law enforcement, non
profits, there are a lot of people coming together," said Kara Van de Carr
of Eden House. "They recognize this is an issue. There have been multiple
trainings, conferences and there are people coming in to actually combat the
problem."
Advocates
said human trafficking is a problem in the New Orleans area year round, as it's
an easily accessible city and one known for its tourism.
