go further and look at other moral panics. white slavery! black metal satanists! pedophile rings in nurseries! dungeons and dragons, for christ's sake! people get whipped up, send some poor people to prison, and stop paying attention for the inevitable judicial reversal

I just think of how most people either aren't aware or don't really think about how mundane most prostitution is. It's rarely the subject of sensationalism except for periodic filler. Also note "dragged" versus the routine of sex workers having a boss and not a bodyguard.
