Stuck in Traffick

Prostitute. Hooker. Floozy. Call girl. Lady of the Night. Streetwalker. Society stamps a negative label on the women of this dangerous criminal industry. However, a fine line must be drawn between those women doing it by choice and the victims who have no choice. Sex trafficking is the fastest growing criminal industry in the world. There are more than 100,000 minors forced into the sex trade every year in the U.S., with an average age of only 13. They are first recruited, forced, coerced, or abducted by a pimp or his workers. Then they are beaten, raped, brainwashed, and treated as commodities. Some of these victimized women can bring in $15,000 a week. The pimp usually receives every penny. There are more slaves today than at any other time in our history. Slavery in the form of sex trafficking is among us in a hidden and quiet fashion. It’s in our neighborhoods and in our malls. It’s in our suburbs, it’s leaking into our schools, and it’s all over the Internet. Education and awareness are the best tools we have at stopping this heinous crime. “Stuck in Traffick” is a documentary that brings light to the underground world of sex trafficking and what can be done to help these victims.
