HUMAN TRAFFICKING: IF YOU SEE IT IN YOUR CITY, IF YOU HEAR ABOUT IT, IF YOU SUSPECT IT, REPORT IT.

SUCCESS STORY
  • Susie, 39 years old, was in high spirits at the airport in Mombasa. She boarded a plane on her way to Germany to spend a three-month holiday, courtesy of her 'boyfriend' who had lavished gifts on her. All hopes of an exciting, wonderful stay in a foreign land were shattered on arrival in Germany, when her boyfriend/trafficker confiscated her passport and denied her food for several days before informing her that she would work as a sex slave. She was raped repeatedly, beaten, and threatened with death. After enduring gross exploitation, Susie used a cell phone to call police.

Wow, great post. Scary stuff that's for sure. At least this one had a happy ending. They don't always.

Have a great week.
