Florida Gov. Rick Scott wants to earmark roughly $4.5 million in
the state budget to fight human trafficking and help victims
recover in a safe place after they're rescued.  The bulk of the
money will create 30 rape crisis centers statewide and help
improve law enforcement response to crimes of rape and sexual
abuse.  Scott said on Wednesday that $1.5 million will also
provide victims of sex trafficking with a safe place to go after
they've been rescued.  In the past, victims have often been
charged with prostitution or held in juvenile detention
facilities. The "safe houses" around the state will help victims
heal in a therapeutic environment.  Juvenile Justice and child
welfare officials also announced a pilot program that identifies
trafficking victims.
