FBI uncovers largest human trafficking operation in US

CNN reports that 6 California-based job recruiters have been indicted in federal court for what basically amounts to importing slaves from Thailand by falsely promising them jobs under the H2 visa program. Not only were these unscrupulous individuals planning to detain these Thai workers and make them work for free but in some cases even demanded that they pay additional money to them or they would have them arrested. The FBI says this is the largest human trafficking ring they have uncovered to date in the United States. More on this story here.
