Go Against Sex Trafficking
Up to three hundred thousand girls are sold into prostitution every year in America
Girls are usually sold at the ages 12-14
33% of teens will be taken into prostitution two days after running from home
Minors were sold approximately six a week and 10 to 15 times a day-that's about 60 to 75 minors being sold a week
Child pornography has become a three million dollar industry
Each year, at least 50,000 women and children are sold in the U.S. only
30% of female victims are forced into labor
The number one sex trafficking city in the U.S. is Atlanta where 500 young girls are sold monthly (Atlanta is the tenth city in the world where sex trafficking occurs)
Despite the DMST law(Domestic Minor Sex Trafficking) victims are usually prosecuted as criminals and the ones who actually committed the crime of sex trafficking walk away without even a small jail setence
