Sex for Sale
The illegal, multibillion-dollar global sex trade includes brothels, massage parlors and online escort agencies and is one of the oldest professions. Take a look inside this illegal trade where pimps treat women as commodities — bought and sold, used and abused, then discarded.
Human Cargo
Mexican cartels dominate an extremely lucrative industry exporting undocumented migrants and squeezing them for cash.
