WHAT I WANT TO USE IN MY RESEARCH PAPER FROM PREVIOUS POSTS ABOUT SEX TRAFFICKING!

"While many Americans have heard of human trafficking in other parts of the world -- Thailand, Cambodia, Latin America and eastern Europe, for example -- few people know it happens here in the United States. The FBI estimates that well over 100,000 children and young women are trafficked in America today. They range in age from 9 to 19, with the average age being 11."
---I want to use this quote because many dont believe that sex trafficking occurs in the U.S. and it help supports the existence of this teribble act.

Debbie, was 15 when she was abducted from her own driveway. She was waiting for her friend Bianca to arrive. When Bianca arrived, she pulled up in a cadillac with two men, Mark and Matthew. The men made Bianca shove her friend into the vehicle and tie her up and threatened to shoot Bianca if she didnt obey. Debbie was taken to an apartment 25 miles away from her home. There she was treated like a dog and subject to various abuses. She was gang raped and forced to have sex with over 50 men and thats not including the gang rapers who had sex with her on a periodic basis. Her "pimp" broke her down until he gained complete control over her.

Miya, a 19 year old, was working at the mall when she was lured into sex trafficking. She was approached by a young women and nicely dressed man. They said that they were modeling agents looking for new models. They asked her to go back to California with them so they could do more photo shoots at their office and she agreed. They gave her a makeover which she thought was for the photo shoot and had no idea that it would be for a much more "insidious reason." Miya was forced to work as a prostitute.

They both were reunited with their families thanks to the help of law enforcement and having the nerve to endure such harsh conditions. The man who lured Miya was charged with pimping and pandering in connection to the young girl he was traveling with. The people who took Debbie were chaged with kidnapping and sexual assault.
---I would like to use this because it is the summary of two girls who were victims of sex trafficking and it kind of tells bits and pieces of their stories.

When we hear the words "sex trafficking," as Americans we immediately think of women and children overseas who are being forced into the sex trade or who are brought into the United States for the purpose of sexual exploitation. We don't usually think closer to home — Americans trafficked by Americans. But I want you to think about young women and even girls that you have seen late at night when you come home from work or a social event. Maybe you have seen them in the streets in short dresses and spike heels. You turn your heads to look away. We do not look at the faces of these young women and girls who are forced to be out in the street. Maybe we think this is what they want to do or they wouldn't be out there. Maybe it is easier to believe that it is an empowering choice they have than face the harsh reality of child sexual abuse, physical and mental abuse, and the pimps that prey on the young women and girls.
---this also shows that sextrafficking isnt only in foreign countries, that it happens in America and by Americans.

Wyndham Hotels to prevent child sex trafficking at their properties, after a sex trafficking ring selling girls as young as 14 was discovered in a Wyndham hotel in California. Now, another sex trafficking ring has been busted using Wyndham properties near Washington, DC. Will this latest scandal finally inspire the company finally do the right thing?
Virginia resident and MS-13 gang member Alonso Bruno Cornejo Ormeno was recently indicted for trafficking girls for sex at a Super 8 hotel -- a Wyndham property -- in Manassas, Virginia. At least one of the girls was 15 when she was sold, and Ormeno advertised her as a "high school girl" and "fresh out of the box." According to the indictment, Ormeno rented a room at the Super 8 where he sold sex acts with a number of girls and women for $50 each. He told an informant his business was booming, and his cell phone was ringing off the hook. Six or seven clients a day would stream in and out of the room, but no one at the hotel reported it.

Research Paper Thesis

My starting thesis: Sex Trafficking is an underlying problem in America that is becoming more and more prevelent.
Now, I dont know where exactly I wanna go with this paper, but if you have any ideas?? Just leave them in the comment. Thanks!
