NJ Spotlight News Special Report: Forced Labor

The fish on your plate in New Jersey probably came from far away. China dominates the global seafood industry, with a massive fleet trolling oceans around the world and sprawling processing plants shipping out frozen products far and wide. Much of that ends up in American restaurants, cafeterias and grocery stores. But it is often a tainted catch. A recently published multi-year reporting effort from The Outlaw Ocean Project unveiled forced labor, human abuses and illegal fishing practices employed by the Chinese industry to meet the world's seafood appetite.
