Well their are US corporations knowingly importing product mfg'd with
slave labor in China and elsewhere overseas. Are these guilty of
conspiracy to violate US anti-slavery laws? If the location of the
offense doesn't matter any more (only that some product related to the
offense in imported) there is a whole new area for prosecution.
