On April 6th, 2018 seven business members from back page.com were arrested on 93 counts for facilitating prostitution, conspiracy, money laundering, & many others. The website has also been seized at this time. This site has been the leading forum for online prostitution ads as well as underground sex trafficking of minors since 2010. They have been protected by the law until congress passed the "Stop Enabling Sex Traffickers Act of 2017".

Here is a very short explanation of the case!
