That doesn't make any sense. It was a state-run sting operation, geograpically contained to a hotel located in that state. Men responded to ads, showed up, were arrested. There was literally no sex worker involved to be trafficked, and there's no federal component of this. Accordingly, there's no indication that federal law enforcement was involved at any point, nor would there be any reason to think there would be. Even if men from other states showed up to answer the ad, they're still going to be charged with state crimes. Which is also why the term "reduced" makes no sense--you can't reduce an apple to an orange, they're two different things--any federal charge would require entirely different set of facts. Besides which, "reduced" in a criminal procedure context applies to charges that have been already brought and were then dismissed, usually due to a plea, a stage Snyder isn't near.
