MILLION KIDS EXPLOITED - Human Trafficking in Southern California
Million Kids has been combating sex and labor trafficking in Southern California for many years.
People often ask us if it is getting better or worse. The answer is clear. Human trafficking and online exploitation are more prolific, more violent, and more egregious than we have ever seen it.
There are many factors driving this increase of
activity. California legislators have enacted laws such Prop 47, Prop 57 and SB 357 that make it easier for criminals to operate with near immunity. SB 357 is
called the “California Safer Streets Act” and makes it so law enforcement cannot intervene with street prostitution. This took place as we have open borders, softer sentencing of criminals, bills that let people out of prison
early and rampant homelessness.
Recently, Senator Shannon Grove tried to get support for
SB1414. This bill would have made it a felony if you sell a minor for sex in California. The bill was greatly watered
down by the opposition, so that it only applies to minors under the age of 16. In essence, it will mean that
selling a 16- or 17-year-old for sex is a misdemeanor. To learn how to stand against this bill, email to [email protected]
Opal Singleton, Host of Exploited: Crimes and Technology shares with the audience about the many different types of sex and labor trafficking cases in Riverside County. These include family trafficking, female recruitment, gang trafficking, a pimp that recruited 28 minors from Moreno
Valley, and Mexican and Chinese trafficking cases in the Inland Empire.
