It's one of the biggest cases of human trafficking in our area.  And part of that case will end today (MON) with a sentencing in federal court.  Dozens of women and girls from the most desperate of circumstances were lured into sex work by a Topeka man.  As Sam Zeff reports, the sex trafficking ring was being run out of night club in -- of all places -- Lawrence.
