“The despicable reality is that people prey on at-risk youth every day of the year, but there is additional concern about the problem at huge, crowded events like the Super Bowl. Human sex trafficking is a not-so-hidden crime that exploits the most vulnerable. The AFT and the NFLPA call on New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, and law enforcement and social service agencies in the New Jersey-New York area and throughout the I-95 corridor, to be especially vigilant so that everyone attending the Super Bowl is safe and well-protected. Raising community awareness of this devastating crime throughout the year is a joint responsibility of public officials, schools, community organizations and law enforcement,” said Randi Weingarten, AFT president, and DeMaurice Smith, NFLPA executive director.
