i need to talk to you. >> against her better judgment, teresa met daniel. to her shock, teresa says daniel showed her pictures of the rape that his cousin took while hiding in the bedroom. >> it looked like very compromising pictures. it didn't look like there was a struggle. >> you can traffic your next door neighbor and that is happening to many of our youth. >> assistant u.s. attorney erica mcdonald says as shocking as it may seem to most americans it's not unusual for girls to be trafficked out of their homes. >> people hear trafficking and think it involves transportation. it doesn't. >> over the last two decades she has prosecuted numerous cases where men used every means possible to control teenage girls. >> with each one of these individuals there is something that has made them vulnerable to the trafficker. >> teresa says that daniel's two cousins threatened to show people the pictures. and she had to earn the right to get her pictures back. she had no idea what that meant until she got a call a few days later. >> he said, you know, this is daniel.

i don't think this will be a big issue in the general election. >> danielle? >> i don't see it as a big issue. it is politically dangerous for either side to get into a slugfest over abortion. what you really have is half country is for it, half the country is against it. nothing benefits them. >> would it be dangerous for them now to use iowa as the platform to clarify, make statements about where they are on abortion? everyone's listening, it is not just iowa. >> i honestly don't think so. reality is when it comes to the general, i don't think the democrats will bring this up in a huge ugly debate. they have to talk about their own views on abortion. nobody wants to talk about abortion during the general. >> danielle, eric, we're not done with you guys. you'll be hanging out with us throughout the hour. there are other fiery issues that have all the candidates raging right now. the issue of immigration is another one that is getting the candidates on their feet. >> mitt, you lose all of your standing from my perspective because you hired illegals in your hom

the doctor discovered that daniel's headaches weren't just headaches. they were migraines. >> well, a migraine doesn't feel like a typical headache. it can feel like a throbbing and exploding -- a crushing pain. it can feel like nothing else that you've ever experienced. >> migraines also tend to occur on only one side of the head, and the biggest sign that you have them is if they interfere in your daily life. this all matched daniel's symptoms, but even his mother questioned them. >> i ignored it, probably, for a good year and a half. it started out when he went to camp, and i thought he was not adjusting well, so i said he was making excuses. but then, a year and a half later, i said, "eh, i think this is more than just an excuse." >> like many boys, he's been told that, first off, adolescents don't get migraines, and also that it's a problem only with girls. and both of those are untrue. >> whis true is that girls are more likely to get migraines. boy or girl -- the pain can be really bad. >> i couldn't stay in school, and i couldn't concentrate, i
