Several hundred demonstrators marched from City Hall to the Statehouse yesterday to publicize the issue of human trafficking and demand an end to it.
Trafficking is modern-day slavery, forcing most victims into the sex trade and other forced labor. It occurs worldwide, including in central Ohio, not just in far-flung places such as Thailand, the organizers of March for Freedom-Columbus said.
Among the throng were as many as 50 survivors of trafficking.
