According to unsealed federal court documents, Poon smuggled undocumented women from Thailand, China, Korea, and Malaysia to be sex workers in her brothels.3 Agents also seized $31,500 in cash and 3,000 condoms from 4 Poon's house. Additionally, court papers indicated that the women were part of a trafficking circuit that rotated sex workers between Canada and major United States cities, including Los Angeles, Houston, Chicago, and New York.5 In a four-part special report beginning October 6, 2006, the San Francisco Chronicle reported sex trafficking as an $8 billion international business, with California, New York, Texas, and Las Vegas among its largest commercial centers.6 The special report centered on You Mi Kim, a sex trafficking victim from South Korea who was tricked into believing that leaving her family and working in America as a waitress would lead to","PeriodicalId":334951,"journal":{"name":"Asian American Law Journal","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125673934","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Rapoport","doi":"10.15779/Z386K46","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.15779/Z386K46","url":null,"abstract":"Hong Kong plays a key role in U.S. efforts to fight international criminal activities in Southeast Asia, because of its unique geographical and political position. However, as of July 1, 1997, the People's Republic of China formally regained control of Hong Kong, which raises concerns over the extradition of criminal fugitives to and from Hong Kong. The reason being that, although there is a proposed U.S.-Hong Kong extradition treaty, there is no U.S.-China extradition treaty making continued U.S.-Hong Kong extradition controversial. Moreover, the current extradition framework creates tension between the Judicial and Executive branches of the US. government. The author argues that the level and extent of Mainland China government interference with Hong Kong will shift the burden of approving extradition from the Judicial to Executive branch. He concludes that continued extradition is dependent on Hong Kong ensuring that the basic rights of criminal defendants are respected and that the continued willingness of the U.S. to extradite fugitives to Hong Kong after 1997 will depend on Hong Kong's integrity as a separate and independent jurisdiction.","PeriodicalId":334951,"journal":{"name":"Asian American Law Journal","volume":"100 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124033950","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
