Sold: the business of sex traffickingSexual violenceJürgen Rudloff’s chain of ‘wellness spas’ sold sex as a health service for men. But his business model was fatally flawed – as his trial for aiding and abetting trafficking revealed Until his dramatic fall from grace, Jürgen Rudloff was the self-proclaimed “brothel king” of Germany.
