Every Parent’s Worst Nightmare: How To Protect Your Children Against The Crime Of Human Trafficking
Human trafficking is a real problem that is facing the United States today. As more awareness is built on the issue of child slavery, more stories continue to come out about experiences with this tragic pandemic facing the world. Primetime recently reported on the story of a girl that they refer to as ‘Debbie’ that was a victim of human trafficking.
Debbie’s story began with a phone call from a friend who wanted to stop by her house. As she was about to go back inside, Debbie went to give her friend a hug. She was forced inside the vehicle where she was tied up and blindfolded. This all happened right in the driveway of her home. Debbie was driven around Phoenix for hours and finally ended up at an apartment that was within a half hour of her home.
At the apartment, the girl was threatened and abused. She described to Primetime that the person who kidnapped her asked her where Debbie would like to be shot. At that point, he began playing with the gun, counted to three, and pulled the trigger. She opened her eyes to see him laughing at her, and she was scared for her life.
After that, Debbie was drugged and gang raped. The perpetrators took her to the living room where a middle-aged man was waiting for a teen to take advantage of. He and four other guys raped Debbie. She was later found by police stuffed in a drawer under the bed, too scared to even cry for help when the police first came through the home.
For some, getting tricked into a human trafficking ploy comes through the offer of a lucrative modeling career. No matter how it happens, the problem is real. An Oklahoma woman shared with a local Fox station that she thought she was going to die. The woman, who goes by ‘Jules’ to protect her identity, believed that she would end up being a Jane Doe at the morgue. Jules was shocked by the inhumane response of these predators. The 19-year-old at the time told one of her clients the truth about her age, as he thought the girl was a minor. He was only outraged that he had paid ,000 for what he thought was a minor, and she really was not. Jules said that she was often sold off as a 13-year-old girl.
