San Francisco Adult Entertainment: Speier Calls for Craigslist to Shut Down Adult Section

Some estimate that as many as 100,000 kids, mostly young girls are caught up in the U.S. sex trade right now.
And with the speed and ease of the Internet, that kind of criminal behavior is much harder to track.
Speier said Craigslist has become a conduit for illegal activity and it’s time for operators to shut the adult services section down.
She made that exact request in a letter sent to Craigslist CEO Jim Buckmaster and he responded by saying the company has a zero tolerance policy for crime and would welcome suggestions to prevent misuse.
”I know that Mr. Buckmaster believes that they’re doing as much as can be done and I just don’t agree with them,” said Speier.
She said she will also ask U.S. Attorney Joseph Russoniello to help San Francisco’s Craigslist avoid the facilitation of prostitution and human trafficking.
