that they have a grows under the age of 18 on an average night for most of our growth if they're working just the streets for once angeles they make anywhere between $11500.00 per night and that's anywhere between probably 5 and 10 different clients or are johns per night so you have men who are purposely looking for pregnant women the reason why they are one of their fetish is pretty women is the fact that they don't have to or a condom because the girls who are pregnant so they don't they can't get the pregnant . by having unprotected sex sex workers are at risk of catching sexually transmitted diseases shockingly despite all of the evidence build up against him police officers are still unable to arrest dunya as pimp the young woman deny still working with him probably because she fears the repercussions the case is ongoing. in 2018

police officers in the human trafficking unit dealt with 76 cases of sexual exploitation of a female minor which led to 40 arrests. to make sure the traffickers are sentenced and end up behind bars aaron and sammy often have to make witness statements during hearings at the courthouse. today we hear from him an airy fairy no mr mcconnell wants it. to be true thoughts. trying. to see how. the judge wants to hear testimonies from all parties the 4 victims as well as the accused wearing the blue jumpsuit they will all be questioned by the prosecution. these issues.

this is. your only authorized to film sammy's questioning it's a crucial testimony for the prosecution in this case. she says she changed. her as she said. i. can't. see any money or are there now and. the judge will now give his ruling. proves. this man will be charged with human trafficking with increasing sentences in force here in the united states he could spend a lot of time behind bars something sammy is reassured about the case will move

forward to try and ease the tension it can get there 35 years and 8 months to prison. i felt really comfortable because i knew that i was talking about the truth and what i was told by these victims. in 2018 erin sami and his colleagues succeeded in sending 12 sexual traffickers to prison. to prevent a young girl. from falling back into prostitution and tear them away from their pimps police officers rely on the help of former victims of sex trafficking. chico was a prostitute on the streets of l.a. during her teenage years it's a possibility that she might have a. she is rapping hits but she's not really being cooperate so what i'll do i'll contact actor today i think that sounds very promising i'll see yeah

yeah hopefully in our t.k. is part of the charity journey out which is made up of former trafficking victims she comes several times a week and talks to the women in their cells about her personal experiences to help get them off the streets but when i disclose that i used to be in the life myself they're like they're willing to listen and i always tell them it's the very easy to change something that has been a part of you since you were a child. but i let them know that if i can do within those 6 no reason or a way that they couldn't do it because i don't want special. 30 years old it's a miracle that has survived growing up in los angeles she was raised by a mother suffering from depression and a violent father who was addicted to crack cocaine and 12 years old after running away from home she agreed to get into

a stranger's car. said that he noticed that i was nervous and he offered me some marijuana i tried it for the 1st time and i i passed out or blacked out and. next thing i know i was waking up in this strange place full of pain because i was being raped at the time eventually managed to get away she spent do. he's wandering the streets a little. at that time i was suicidal i didn't want to live anymore so i knew the longer i stayed in the streets so it would take my life i knew that hopping into anyone's car drive walking around the streets a middle and i that someone would eventually abducted me and take my life she ended up under the control of a pimp who took advantage of her vulnerable state and he says oh well you've done it before now you can do it again under. with with

a little bit more guidance and you know as long as you do what i tell you to do i will have to beat you. when those truths seem wrong. but i will just don't hold. any you will get to shape out these days to come to etiquette and in detroit equals betrayal. when something any find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. we said. just that. there's enough.

but i'm also the most companies you know i've been there give us the. when we go. someplace you must get almost you know he goes from didn't you know just to see. someone. you see him a little you kind of this. little kid. in this. peculiar list. because he. was only 12 years old her abuser didn't sell around the streets and she was scared of the police instead she would be sent to motels or the customer's home or deal would last 2 years. one guy told me that i was too i was too old i was probably

about 14 years old at the time so obviously they were and that they wanted someone that wasn't. physically mature but wanted someone to look at the young as possible so i started to go to figure our what was a famous track and los angeles and i started to work on the streets. for 4 years it was passed from one pimp to another around 10 in total she managed to get away by leaving california and finding love however her years of prostitution. so violent that her body has been left permanently damaged i can't that many children because of that. because of the stuff that i've been through. it's very hard for me to. you know because my harmonise are telling me that i need to reproduce but at the same time i see what i'm able to give

to other people and other children and i probably wouldn't be able to do the work that i do the way that i do it if i did have children so it's a hard pill to swallow but it's it's up to. the reason so many women are falling into the hands of pimps is probably because in the u.s. pimping has now entered popular culture. pimps are appearing more and more on social media they show off their new recruits and tattoo their name on them to show that they are their property. tonight the hollywood vice squad are leading an operation that is turning getting sex traffickers sergeant laurie oakes has been in the squad for 13 years and knows

their techniques well. these women get dropped off by men who pretty much run them and we call them because they meet their supervisors or pimps and they are the ones who pretty much stick with these women and put them on the street to work and they take the money from them. the supervisor oversees dropping off and watching the girls who are working the street the also collect the money to give to the panther in general they hide in darker sides. streets close to the intersection. so they stay out here because they have the western corridor which is to the east and then say go which is farther west. and that dog used both is back and forth and this is where they treat women we are going to go with.

sergeant laurie is on the lookout for any unusual behavior coming from drivers in fact prostitutes are often followed from a distance by their supervisor or pimp to protect them. go for it i sit. in a park and i just want. to go on the album are. just a few streets away his colleagues have just stopped a prostitute who is getting into a car with 2 men in the front both the woman and the 2 individuals are arrested for sergeant this is unusual and they have 0 these with someone else driving around with she made concept and had some sense and once she got in a vehicle i think it's not uncommon for a female to be picked up by 2 males and i. think it's a safety issue that. the driver is saying that the girl is his cousin and he's

dropping her home after a family get together. this is the t.v. justice in 5. different. was. always able to see. if the young woman however gives a completely different story. that it's a hard. thing i said. was the press not. when searching the prostitute police find several condoms in an inner bra. in the man's car they find bundles of dollar bills an empty alcohol bottle and boxes of pills they also find the same brand of condom as the girl sergeant laurie

oakes concludes that the evidence is overwhelming for these 2 guys. and they have right now basically just supervise dennis and camping supervising the 4 mobile she's ok and then taken to different locations that are managed by somebody else which will be. the 3 suspects are placed into the cars they will head to the police station where detectives will attempt to clarify the specific rule of each person. sergeant continues his patrol. another young woman has just been arrested in a street adjacent to western avenue where your id. her supervisor or pimp has definitely just dropped.

further away from the scene surgeon laurie oakes thinks he spotted a suspicious vehicle. and peer institute in a dodge magnetic area baby boy link an ex-girlfriend in missouri watching the whole time we took his 1st girl down and he is now going northbound on western and the number one a number 2 lane. main here and stop at the stop sign that is that you're way past that little but when we get units to take this guy down. you know if they look at the santa monica and tried my western at santa monica i had them from the east going front of your name taken down.

started doing this you know. is very sort of the road dog chooses to enter or they're walking or if they're also going to syria but i want to say something to your marriage you know marriage is your warm enough you know you're serious i'm sure or maybe in. the mirror it was so but you're doing. your prayer to this. is this. going to be you know i mean it was horrible but this is mart oh dear. oh dear the operation has been a success for sergeant laurie house pimping is punishable by 6 years in prison this man who had 2 girls under his control was there for at risk of 12 so yeah phones that we found are going to get there we called her phone this phone answers what her i.d. was and her car was in his car so we know there's stuff going on i don't do way
