  • A frantic father pounds the streets, searching for his daughter. Schoolgirls, abused by pimps and enslaved by heroin, disappear into cars and shadowy motel rooms. A band of policemen desperately try to fix a system that punishes rather than protects. This visceral film follows those caught in a web of underage sex trafficking spun deep in the cracks of American society, in a gut-wrenching exploration of the lives destroyed by it.

    My wife and her mom were tailed several years ago heading down to Chicago. The van kept waving at them to pull over. They kept moving on the freeway and eventually got off at an exit they were not supposed to in order to ditch the van. Ladies watch your backs!

      And then they got attacked by a guy in the backseat that the nice people in the van were trying to warn them about.💀

    Great documentary. Real but not exploitative. CZcams is filled with so many creeps interviewing these young folks and asking questions such as: "What's the worst thing that's happened to you out here?". This may be the first I've seen that could actually educate and dissuade a young person from falling into this trap. Well done. Thank you!

    Does the state enable traffickers/pimps with its' policies on dugs and drug use? 90% are dependent on a substance. The state's policies create the leverage the trafficker needs. It is that simple. That doesn't mean the policies are wrong or unjust, but you can't deny that relationship to concept.
    Also, there should be way, way more Summons issued instead of arrest. It's the same bloody thing, except the arrest facilitates so much negative results, for all parties including the public. Streamline some benches, and just start pumping people through the process, so their public activity is documented. Offer programs and resources, but stop arresting people that are not dangerous. The detective's actions are admirable, but the state should not parent those who need it, they will just end up with a nation of babies. Cz that's what the next gen will learn, cz that's all their parents knew. That is the same direction we are on now.
    We need freedom to be freedom, i.e. personal choices, in private, are not the state's business. Public activity is the state's business. And when that is in place, above all, we need Justice. Real Justice. Not just murder, sa, death and mayhem Financial, obviously, but that is so depleted at present. So much 'theft' goes on over the counters over the phones, this is what creates monsters who sell their children to johns. Injustice from the time they are kids. There is a world, a dream, that we are somehow all aware of, and so many people grow up in a world that is nothing like that. They are stolen from, lied to, cheated their whole lives, with no one who cares to even listen to the injustice, let alone right it. But then, this store owner, gets justice for his candy bar, the neighbor gets justice for walking on his lawn, a girl makes up a story and a kid is getting state justice for something he didn't even do, all the while it's, 'go to school, be honest, get a job, you will have a good life. NO, that's not how it works. The cheaters, criminals, monsters win, cz they are actively playing a game that others are not.
    Fix that.

    Thank goodness, some people are trying to help these girls. One of the best people I knew was a girl who was my student. She told me that she became a prostitute at the age of 12!!! She couldn't stand men and lived with her girlfriend. She decided that she wanted a child, so she did go with a man for that. She turned out to be a great mother. When I was in the hospital, she came every day. I was paralyzed after an operation and she fed me because I couldn't feed myself. I will always be grateful to her. I moved out of that area and lost touch with her. I hope she and her girlfriend and her baby did o.k.

    That social worker at the trial getting on her high legs tels so much in my opinion ! How can a system feeling no guilt or any even a small glimpse of will to improve whatsoever can be repeared ? In allll these cases i see the exact same arogant response by social workers .... Oh yeah so it's totally normal to trust an incarcerated man with violence history to decide to have the lucidity to judge what hypothetic girlfriend to keave his child to ....to not see that Myls was covered head to toe with injuries emaciated and CIGARETTE marks on his HEAD.... here alone....with a total stranger .....of course would believe anything that came out of her mouth without verifying total BS and her arrogant attitude is disrespect to Myls family

    Natalie and all of you young beautiful women/souls. You're only fault is being young and inexperienced, in the scheme of life you're still babies. You are beautiful beings that wanted or needed to take your own path not knowing the extreme evil, darkness that preys on your light. Don't EVER come down on yourselves for venturing out you brave warriors. But absolutley be kind to yourselves for taking flight too soon.
    P.S. Natalie had i have been a witness to what that waste of space and air was doing to you...he would have been ended in the most horrific way possible. I have friends.
    I wish you and all the beautiful girls safety, courage to change and soooooooooo very much love!!!!

    Women and children need to be aware as they sre usually the target for traffickers. I don't go anywhere alone. I am very aware because my mother drummed it into me from a young age.

He knew the city she was in , he was scared and was never built for confrontation. He should have hired people yet he didn’t . In any city there are guys you can employ that will do what you can’t . I hate listening to this guy why he pretends . You sat there did nothing and allowed your daughter to leave then you allowed her to stay gone .
