Central Florida Second Highest Number of Child Sex Trafficking Cases in the U.S.
Just finished reading this article published in the March 2012 issue of STYLE – Lake and Sumter (Counties) magazine. I knew that Texas and Florida were hotspots for recruiting and trafficking, just didn’t realize how big, how close and how bad the problem was. The statistics in the article are alarming at best, heart-wrenching in reality. The greater concern is that the “industry”, if you can dignify it that way, is growing at an alarming rate, slated to outpace the drug trade. Written by Jim Gibson and titled “Dealing in Flesh”, it’s an eye-opening expose and reminder about the sense of urgency and level of action we should all be taking. Well written, informative and challenging article with tremendous human trafficking information.
