Critics Charge Craigslist Functions as Bulletin Board for Child Prostitution [USA]

Richard Blumenthal, attorney general of Connecticut, has called for classified advertisement service Craigslist to shut down its adult services section…"The continued prevalence of prostitution ads belies Craigslist's promises to combat them," Blumenthal said...”…There is no reason, technological or otherwise, that open prostitution and human trafficking cannot be eliminated from the site."…Andrea Powell [advocacy group] Fair Fund's executive director…[says] "Craigslist is the Wal-Mart…of sex trafficking,"…Admittedly, it is very difficult to know if a minor is behind a particular sexually explicit ad...she explained. Thus, "unless Craigslist is willing to monitor every single ad that goes up, I don't see how they can continue to have this [adult services portion of the] site up."
