I hate that fucking US soldier more than the slave traders. Fucking piece of shit, I hope he got some tropical std and his fucking balls fell off. Coward piece of donkey dung shouldn't be wearing a US uniform.
I agree x 5000%, Turbo. My wife was the one who found the info about his story but I don't remember which sites we read the info on. I think it might have been a UK news site? Definitely wasn't American because we never hear any real stuff here.
The international sex trade is HUGE. You mostly hear about Eastern European and some Russian women who answer ads for "nannies" in the US and they come over here, get intercepted by pimps, the pimps use brute force to take their passports, then they tell them they can "buy" their passports back if they agree to what the pimp tells them to do. From there, they move them from flop house to flop house and of course they never get their passports back. Along the way, the pimps rape and beat the shit out of them, and they program them to believe that they are associated with the police and the authorities (and sometimes, they are. The stuff surfacing about Vatican's involvement with international pedophilia rings is totally related. But I'm talking about trafficking in young women from various Eastern European countries.) So the girls never feel like they can go to the police because they feel like the police are associated with their brutal treatment, or they'll arrest them and they'll never get to go back home anyway.
I know a girl from Poland who went through this shit, folks. If she hadn't met a relatively "nice" john who also happened to be an attorney who works all over the world, she wouldn't have escaped the system. He prosecuted the dudes who stole her passport, got her out of whoredom, and my wife and I met her working in a New Jersey diner of all places living a relatively happy life. She married the lawyer and had a kid by him about a year ago. I wish her all the best. Most of her female friends who also answered "nanny wanted' ads weren't so lucky.
The Caribbean sex trade is a little different. Much of it circulates between Miami and then various island nations and the girls are kept on rotation, no fixed address, nobody knows who all is working in these situations.
I also used to know a woman who worked in several luxury NYC hotels who described the same shit going on. Except it was with underaged Mexican and Hispanic boys. Michael Jackson regularly rented a penthouse suite at Leona Helmsey's Palace to "entertain" his little Mexican sex slave boyfriends, who were shipped out the next day to the next stop on the sex slave route.
Absolutely fucking sucks and most of the world is clueless about this shit happening.
