Rhode Island Woman Charged With Trafficking at Connecticut Casino A 24 -year-old woman was arrested at the Two Trees Inn at Foxwoods Casino for her involvement with human trafficking and the promotion of prostitution. A 16 -year-old female victim was rescued after the Mashantucket Pequot tribal police collaborated with the FBI on an investigation at the Foxwoods. The investigation came about because of a tip alluding to the pervasive use of prostitution websites at the hotel. William Dittman, the chief of the Mashantucket police, said he was “sure (the prostitution) didn't develop here, but it led here. ” Dittman said he believed this situation was an isolated event.

Problem Gamblers & Illicit Sex Gambling alters the person’s mood and the gambler keeps repeating the behavior attempting to achieve that same effect. Just as tolerance develops to drugs or alcohol, the gambler finds that it takes more and more of the gambling experience to achieve the same emotional effect as before. This creates an increased craving for the activity and the gambler finds they have less and less ability to resist as the craving grows in intensity and frequency. –National Council on Problem Gambling
