Was Robert Kraft in the massage parlor at the time of the raid or was his name on the list....

4. Am I the only one that finds the civil liberties aspect of this case troubling?

Having served 30 years in the Navy and knowing the kind of conditions that a "bar girl" in the Philippines is subject too, I find sex-trafficking and coercion into sexual servitude disgusting.

I am troubled by the actions of law enforcement here.

I'd like some more details, because it appears that unless they had cooperating witnesses within the massage parlors, they either clandestinely planted hidden cameras, broke in overnight and planted hidden cameras, or ran hidden cameras through the walls or ventilation systems.

That seems like a pretty steep slippery slope. I understand that there is no protection of the 4TH Amendment if you are engaged in criminal activity, but I'm not sure where the limits are to what law enforcement can do.

If they suspect you of filing a false tax-return, would they be able to break into your home and plant hidden cameras and listening devices in your home?

I'm all for prosecuting the hell out of human traffickers. I think that good old fashioned gum-shoe work could have accomplished that.

If you suspect that women are being held against their will, arrest the owners of the business. In most states, it's a violation of the law to require employees to sleep at their place of business. Arrest the owners if that if going on.

There have to be some limits. Are we to assume that everywhere we go, there are law enforcement hidden camera's?

To me, that's a bridge too far.
