pandering


Explanation:
In law, the word "pandering" is usually used. Notice the definition provided by Merriam-Webster's Dcitionary of Law:

"the act or crime of recruiting prostitutes or of arranging a situation for another to practice prostitution"

The crime of pandering is typically committed by a "pimp".

Pandering is defined under state laws, which vary by state, but usually include solicitation of customers for prostitution services and recruitment of prostitutes for hire.
