Kraft was originally charged with a low level misdemeanor (I assume) for soliciting prostitution. It would not be uncommon for a person to get charges like this dismissed upon completing a class and 100 hours community service.
Charging Kraft with human trafficking would be like charging a guy smoking a joint with international drug smuggling.
Here is what happens. Local law enforcement arrest the clients just to blow up their arrest numbers. The best way to get federal grants for fighting human trafficking is to claim you made 100 arrests related to human trafficking. But most of those arrests are just clients who have nothing to do with human trafficking.
