What a horrid crime it is. January '23 is Human Trafficking Prevention Month. A few of the top cities for human trafficking are D.C., Atlanta, Miami, and Las Vegas... but it's getting just as bad in some other areas. I remember the first time I saw a notice to keep eyes open for trafficking. It was at a rest stop on I95 and until then I really didn't know the magnitude of it. The fear and loss of dignity that these monsters give to their victims is inconceivable.

I just read this from the State Department. 🤬
"The International Labour Organization (ILO) and the Walk Free Foundation, in partnership with the International Organization for Migration (IOM), released Global Estimates of Modern Slavery in September 2022. This report estimates that, at any given time in 2021, approximately 27.6 million people were in forced labor."
 
An awful thing, but not one I really understand.

Who are the victims and what are they being forced to do?

Does it say how many of these people are where? How many in the US?

Even here? I thought we were relatively safe from that as it seems to be predominant down south and in the west. :(

Read the article below, Rob. That'll answer your questions.

"It is estimated that between 15,000 to 50,000 women and children are forced into sexual slavery in the United States every year, and the total number varies wildly as it is very difficult to research. One study from the Department of Health and Human Services estimated the number between 240,000 and 325,000, while a report from the University of Pennsylvania put it at between 100,000 and 300,000."

Nowhere is "safe". It's more prevalent than people realize and not segregated to any particular area. It's happening everywhere.

Frankly, what I want? The list of visitors to Epstein's Island. I want the names of anyone who went twice or more.

If they're who I think they are, how can we fight what our politicians take part in?
 
Reno’s not a big town but has a significant problem with human trafficking especially young women being used for sex. There’s public service announcements telling people to be careful and be aware of their surroundings.
 
As old as human civilization. Slave sex for wealth industry as always. With Earth monkey overpopulation and suddenly within modern decades, total world race cultural diffusion A to Z, powerful elite overlords bred over centuries in regions with warlike kingdoms to indigenous seasonal subsistence nomadic like Earth folk, barely surviving their planet niches. What fertile cultural societies we humans have now for that to boom and fester. For decades, have been hiding personal awareness from a level of much rot in our world though for others, Let It Be! One reaps what they sew. It is what it is.

Human trafficking is a horrible crime and happens more often than we realize. Feds arrested several human traffickers in N.J. over the past ten years. Here's one of the stories that broke almost a year ago:

@Alligatorob the victims in the above article are mostly Mexican immigrants being forced into prostitution. But I've read that American girls have also been kidnapped for that purpose.

I hope there's a special place in hell for those who commit these crimes and I hope their hell starts when they are imprisoned.

You’ll probably never know who all visited the island now that Epstein was murdered.
