（单词翻译）
And many of the white girlfriends are actually prostitutes because he hangs out in the vice1 district. At the height of Jim Crow, crossing race lines for sex was considered a huge threat to social order.
Authorities begisn to think about ways to bring him down through his relationship with white women.
A new law is created, called the mann act, making it illegal to transport women across date lines for
immoral2 purposes. It was also created in part to
entrap3 Jeff Johnson. With the Mann Act in place, the cops got a lead about one of Johnson's girlfriends, named Lucio Cameron. The tip actually comes from Lucio's mother who doesn't want her daughter dating a black man.
Cameron Lucio's mother goes to the police and tells them to arrest
Jack4 Johnson for kidnapping her daughter. Lucio's mother tells the press I would rather have my daughter locked up forever in an insane
asylum5 than become the plaything to this .
Lucio thought another way. She actually loves Jack Johnson. She claimed she had already been a prostitute so Jack Johnson didn't force her into that, and that they had a bonafide relationship. so the case falls apart.
The bureau of
Investigation6 tries to search out other leads for possible girlfriends to
implicate7 Jack Johnson. They find a woman named Belshiriver who again was another prostitute that Jack Johnson met in Chicago back in 1909 before the Mann Act was passed.
but that didn't seem to bother federal authorities.
Because Belshiriver was a scorned ex-girlfriend, she decides to cooperate with the police and presses charges.
