    All things considered in Karla’s story has a strong impact on my opinion that human trafficking is one of the most horrendous crimes. The thought of being raped for twelve hours and by as many as thirty men each day, seven days a week makes me feel bitter to my stomach. Life is disturbing when you are held against your will and violated every day. Karla missed out on things such as driving, prom and hanging out with friends that most girls twelve through sixteen usually participate in, she was robbed of her teenage years which are supposed to be a cheerful time of life. I cannot fathom how people can be so immoral and enslave people or encourage enslavement by paying to rape slaves held hostage.…

    The DOJ issued a warning stating that: “Among children and teens living on the streets in the United States, involvement in commercial sex activity is a problem of epidemic proportion” and claiming that “Child sexual exploitation is the most hidden form of child abuse in the U.S. today.” Yet, it is an epidemic that has gone largely overlooked and untreated. The truth is, there is no way to be sure how many are forced into prostitution every year here in America. The estimated figure is that 15,000 women are trafficked into the U.S. each year, but that the number of American girls trafficked on American streets is 10 to 20 times greater. The most common estimate mentioned by the DOJ and child protection agencies puts the number at around 300,000-but believe it to be closer to 800,000.…

    (ONE) How could this still be happening? How is it possible that every hour over 130 women or children are kidnapped and sold into human trafficking? But that’s just the number of reported cases (“Trafficking” para.1). It would be larger if it wasn't for the fact that the people who do this absolutely horrendous act make sure to keep it very secretive and hidden to the outside world. Nevertheless, how can such “brutally misogynistic violence” (Kristof 133) happen and go without world outcry or major concern everywhere?…

    Sex trafficking is the second largest criminal enterprise in the world, falling close behind illegal drugs and arms trafficking. In spite of currently being second, many believe is will soon be the largest, and is currently is a $7 to $10 billion industry (McClain & Garrity, 2010, p. 244).. This is due to this differences in contraband. Contraband in sex trafficking is the humans, more specifically in this situation, the children, which can be sold and resold to be used over and over again, and even being the most profitable (Jordan, Patel, & Rapp, 2013, p.356).

    With human trafficking being an already severe crime in the United States, the sex trade industry is what has so many young womens lives turned upside down. With the single largest demographic age for targets and victims being between the age of 12 and 15, the long term-impacts are more horrendous than any other (Chaffee & English, 2015). Although the age of 12 thru 15 is when a vast majority of girls are first exploited, the age can range tremendously. However, it is supported that a great deal of the youth vulnerable to a future in the industry are but not limited to, runaways, homeless children in the foster system, or those who have been prior subjects of abuse (Greenbaum, 2014).…
