Hello my fellow citizens
Need peoples' with this.
Please see this article I received on my Google alert: http://www.850wftl.com/human-trafficking-victim-speaks-hopes-warning-others/
Note the article mentions some interesting things about this poor victim:
For 14 years Castillo was a victim of human trafficking. Castillo talked to our news partner CBS 12 News and said “I was being abused, raped, burned, beat in any kind of way. And I lived in a cage.”
From Central America to Mexico, Castillo was used for work and sex. Eventually she ended up in Texas where she worked on a Texas farm growing crops for five years, and at night she was forced to have sex with multiple men.
“They raped me in a group of 30 men,” she said with tears rolling down her eyes. “I would lose conscious back and forth. It’s like, I was alive, but I was dead.”
“I only ate twice a week,” Castillo said. “I had to see so many men a day. I felt dirty.”
Castillo says one day she escaped from the farm, and took her baby with her."
MY REACTION: omg She lived in a cage? She ESCAPED FROM A FARM!!!!!!!!!!

Comet Ping Pong has cages stacked up in the hallway outside the firewood room. Have you seen that picture? This is so sad. I remember seeing something about a migrant farm worker who was being abused by an employer. The Mexicans on farms are easy to exploit. They can't go to the authorities for fear of being deported.

Frontline did a program called "Rape in the fields" about migrant female workers being raped. This frontline program only touches the surface: https://youtu.be/pUv2X_f_kK4

I think the one I saw it in was a movie about wanting to increase the pay for migrant farm workers by 1 cent per pound. Can't remember the name.
