Trump seems to have had connections to human trafficking, not only through Jepstein but possibly his own network. During his first term there was a lot of people who went missing both at the the border which some theorized was murders and cover-ups but could have just as easily been kidnappings. During the Floyd protests there was this same thing happening of unidentified masked men in unmarked vehicles grabbing, seemingly random, people. Again, this was thought to be simply feds doing extrajudicial arrests. There could be a darker thing happening here. It could be by design to give cover for one or several human trafficking networks. It would be extremely difficult to separate "legitimate" arrests from wanton kidnappings. As long as there is enough on-the-books chaos with real ICE and feds eating up attention, it would be hard to notice random abductions. The US already has a terrible track record with missing persons of color. These networks would be opportunistic feeders whenever there is social chaos. Even if officials don't have any knowledge of this happening, or direct connections, the networks that do exist could still use the opportunity.
I don't have any real evidence other than "people intimately involved in a widely known human trafficking scheme coincidentally do the thing that makes kidnapping super easy." But it's also the thing that nobility, royalty, and fascists have been doing. Alexander III deported people like this because he accused them of terrorism (and killing his dad). So it's not like they need the trafficking reason to do this.
