In Guam, zero new criminal human trafficking cases were filed in federal courts in 2021. Zero defendants were convicted. There were zero active defendants, so zero percent of active defendants were charged with sex trafficking, and zero percent were charged with forced labor. Since zero defendants were convicted federally, none were ordered to pay restitution to their victims. Federal courts have never ordered a convicted Guam human trafficking defendant to pay restitution, and only in 2012 has a Guam trafficking defendant been federally convicted (two).

estimate of trafficking in the state but instead serve as an objective summary of federal efforts to address human trafficking in that state. The Report does not capture
data from state prosecutions, federal or state civil suits, or unreported human trafficking cases.
