Our top news story today is about an arrest last Sunday in Conway, Arkansas. A 30 something year old man was selling a minor girl for sex and is currently awaiting trial on multiple drug charges as well as human trafficking charges.
We also get to finish the 3 part news series about the growing awareness in our health care industry about recognizing trafficked victims. As of today there are only 60 hospitals out of some 6,000 hospitals in our nation that are trained or equipped to recognize a trafficked victim that comes in for medial care ... much less to be able to help them with their trafficked condition. But, awareness is growing.
