11:45 pm
knowing the words and then the idea to do. good. and i don't buy that in a can matter. the son of god national i'm going to try not. i. just thought. goes on miles on them because i'm a lawyer. and. doesn't know how to set the commute. but i bet all small. unit was one of those missed out on a. feel good. shot and know it and went on my route to my name a few. tika
11:46 pm
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 her ordeal 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 in that they wanted someone that wasn't as physically mature but wanted someone to look at the young as possible so i started to go to figure our which was track of famous track in 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
11:47 pm
leaving california and finding love however her years of prostitution were so violent that her body has been left permanently damaged i can't imagine any 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. 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.
11:48 pm
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
11:49 pm
street they also collect the money to give to the pin in general they hide in darker side streets close to the intersection. so they stay out here because they have the western corridor which is to the east and then figo up which is farther west. and then i don't use both is back and forth and this is where they treat women we are going to go with sergeant laurie oh she 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'm not going to join us. and i don't want. to go on about the murder. just a few streets away his colleagues have just stopped a prostitute who is getting into
11:50 pm
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 these males driving around she made cars. appleton had some sense unless she got an idea. but it's not common for a female to be picked up by 2 males and. it's a safety issue for that. the driver is saying that the girl is his cousin and he's dropping her home after a family get together. for somebody. i . was able to visit a. young woman however gives a completely different story. i.
11:51 pm
think i was. present. when the 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 which 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 what they have right now basically is a supervisor and this and them being the supervising the female that she is ok and taken a different locations that are managed by somebody gets tricky. and. the 3 suspects are placed into the cars they will head to the police station where detectives will attempt to clarify the specific role of each person.
11:52 pm
sergeant continues his patrol. another young woman has just been arrested in a street adjacent to western avenue. her supervisor or pimp has definitely just dropped her off. further away from the scene surgeon laurie thinks he spotted a suspicious vehicle. frequency at the. pier institute in the dodge magnum i think there may be a link to make sure all 3. watching the whole time he took his 1st girl down and he is now going northbound on western and the number one made number to leave. me here
11:53 pm
and stop at the stop sign that is. so let me get a units to take this guy down. show you where at the santa monica and try light western in santa monica. he's going front of your name taken down. after being cheated the driver pulls over and doesn't resist. he was there he backed up watch this still. doing it and as we were driving off he was looking to make sure if she was looking so he gives it like a sort of
11:54 pm
a signal like don't say nothing and don't speak and then he gave me the which training and experience of so much time on the job i know what that means he's involved. in his trunk the police find items that leave no doubt about his activities. the woman told him you know there are a lot of fun. women to see other people's ladles. see just the fact that he was. working. closer in the car they find the i.d.'s of 2 young girls one of them belongs to the blonde girl who was arrested earlier. now we also found the girls i've been in there with they did together so now we've got them all going up together so now the investigation begins about human trafficking. to suspect and pimp is taken to
11:55 pm
the police station despite the evidence he is denying everything he insists that he doesn't know the young woman. his daughter doing this you know. it is very sort of their own daughter choose to stare at their water or at their disposal in a series but i want to say something to your marriage you know marriage is your warm enough you know you're serious i'm joe i'm in the. the mirror was so rich you're doing. your predicate this. is this very.
11:56 pm
very big you know i mean i was going. oh. oh 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 therefore at risk of 12 so yeah he's always found learning together we called her phone this phone answers or whatever id was in her car was it is car right so we know there's stuff going on i do way she's going to go down for at the very least supervisor trust to show no i think very nice for a big defeat. in 2018 more than 106 traffickers were arrested by the l.a.p.d. . 6
