We get to hear part of an audio news story out of Florida today. A 12 year old is sold into the sex slave industry and kept in a cage for some 14 years! She had a baby girl and then made a daring escape, her trafficker shot her in the head but she survived and is now telling her story.
I also get to share a current story out of Pennsylvania. A state law passed there in 2013 is allowing sex trafficking victims to sue hotels and motels that knowingly let them be trafficked in their hotel/motel place of business! I haven't been able to find out if Arkansas has a similar statute but I am working on it! The story states that only a "handful" of states have this kind of law and I want to know if Arkansas in one of the handful, and if not, what do we need to do to become one.
