Hey people,

Please may I have two question, which concerns the legal terms?

1) Please what does it mean if an particular person is being held in prison and is pending federal trafficking charges?

What does the underlined text mean?

2) If the person is catched for booking on solicitation charges. Please what is that mean?

thank you in advance for effort.

trafficking - drug trafficking. importing or distributing illegal drugs.

solicitation - generally related to prostitution.

Is that enough to fill in the blanks, or do you still have a few questions?
