Abstract

This article explores ‘good practice’ in sex trafficking cases with respect to the following three points: (1) clarification of what is meant by ‘good practice’; (2) sensitivity to cross-national and comparative criminal justice practice when considering replication of ‘good practice’ between jurisdictions; and (3) the ‘place’ of the victim in different criminal justice jurisdictions. The article does not offer descriptive accounts of ‘good practice’ in sex trafficking cases, but critiques suggestions for ‘good practice’ in sex trafficking cases that are made without due consideration of what is currently on offer for victims of crime in general. Examples from the author's research on policy recommendations for ‘good practice’, and examples of criminal justice practice in selected EU member states, are briefly referred to as illustrating some of the problems encountered when promoting ‘good practice’ in sex trafficking cases.
