Yes, now at Appeals Court and the lawyers are throwing reams of paper at each other.

Thing about the opioid epidemic and human trafficking is that I saw with both instances the Feds scheming years in advance. They were trying to incite movements, and they succeeded in creating evil enemies the government was supposed to slay. With opioids, the DEA's Draconian tactics have led people from safer prescriptions to street drugs and the result is more people dying now than ever. With FOSTA, the data shows that human trafficking while not non-existent wasn't the crisis it was made out to be. It really was a way for the feds/LE to seize assets obtained via prostitution.
The latest with Robert Kraft is the woman who allegedly gave him the HJ has denied doing so. Maybe the bullshit human trafficking angle in that case, and the Jupiter police's and DA's despicable conduct moves the needle but I doubt it.
If FOSTA does make it do the Supreme Court, I bet that they uphold the law... at least this go round.
