What began innocently enough is a prime example of trafficking. Young girls flattered into becoming a hostage for the sake of sexual pursuit. Many of them are 12 or 13 years of age!
Trafficking is a form of Modern Day Slavery. Many girls fall into becoming a victim to this criminal activity. Being pressured into a sex act is just the beginning.
DO NOT FALL PREY TO A STRANGER. What could start out as a boyfriend/girlfriend situation could turn dangerous very quickly.
AVOID THE PLOY : Oh, you are so pretty… and then there is the I could get you a job being a model
DONT ALLOW ANYONE TO TOUCH YOU … BE SUSPICIOUS IF YOU DONT KNOW THIS PERSON.
… and youve heard this before from your Mom, teachers, etc., DONT ACCEPT A RIDE WITH STRANGERS.
REPORT TO ANY ADULT WHOM YOU ARE COMFORTABLE WITH, IF ANY OF THE ABOVE HAPPEN TO YOU. remember, the police are always there to help. Even use 911. The Ohio State Patrol Intelligence Unit at 1-866-678-8477.
Remember, you will NOT be in any trouble if you seek help and tell the truth. Confide in someone or call the police. You can ask to speak to a female officer, dont hesitate.
Never lie when explaining your situation. One lie will lead to another and another.
Although statistics dont show males falling victim to trafficking, but it is not out of the question. Gender does not mean girls/women alone.
Know that you are loved, yes by many people working to irradiate this horrible, devastating crime.
BE AWARE… BE SMART …
