 Sex trafficking creates more victims than just the prostitutes.  This ring is stealing businessmen's money out of their corporate accounts.  When they threaten to go to the police - they threaten to ruin their careers and their marriages.  Heads of companies are being blackmailed and even stock market prices are being manipulated this way.  Which makes businessmen, corporations, and even our economy victims. 01:20:00Stop Sex Traffic Talknosex trafficking,human trafficking,massage parlors,prostitution,pornographyImagine you meet a woman you fall in love with working as a prostitute in a massage parlor.  She doesn't want to be there so you offer to get her out of there shttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/stopsextrafficktalk/2014/06/29/hustler-to-hooker--taras-storyPsychologyhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/stopsextrafficktalk/2014/06/29/hustler-to-hooker--taras-story/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/stopsextrafficktalk/2014/06/29/hustler-to-hooker--taras-storySun, 29 Jun 2014 07:00:00 GMTHustler to Hooker - Tara's StoryTalia was sexually abused from the crib on.  No one listened or intervened.  Even her step-father sexually abused her.  Cutting herself to find relief from the internal pain (cutting takes the pain from the inside to the outside and is not a form of suicide but actually an attempt to find release from emotional pain), she soon developed other self-destructive behaviors.  Starting out as a regular "model" she soon found herself being eased into the world of hard-core .  From hard-core in magazines such as "Hustler" she found she couldn't make ends meet with an erratic shoot paycheck.  Addicts tend to seek out other addicts so she found herself buried in debt because of her husband's gambling addiction.  He left but left her with the bills.  Soon Tara began to see that it was really just one excuse after the other to justify returning to the sex industry.  Once the denial was stripped away - then what?  She sought help in Sex Workers Anonymous where today she's now working at a "regular" job and just got into graduate school.  Tara's hope is to finish school and work with other troubled kids like herself.   01:40:00Stop Sex Traffic Talknochild abuse,sexual abuse,child pornography,modeling,sex workTalia was sexually abused from the crib on.  No one listened or intervened.  Even her step-father sexually abused her.  Cutting herself to find relief from thehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/stopsextrafficktalk/2014/06/25/security-guards-speaks-about-sex-traffickingWomenhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/stopsextrafficktalk/2014/06/25/security-guards-speaks-about-sex-trafficking/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/stopsextrafficktalk/2014/06/25/security-guards-speaks-about-sex-traffickingWed, 25 Jun 2014 14:30:00 GMTSecurity Guards Speaks About Sex TraffickingListen to "Joey", a security guard who worked nights in Atlantic City, NJ in the late 1980's, speak about the sex trafficking victims he saw who were not only paying off the cops - but the cops were the pimps!  Hear about the "conflict of interest" with these victims calling the National Trafficking Hotline that's connected with law enforcement - when law enforcement is part of her trafficking network she's trying to get away from. This man saw pay-offs, rip-offs, and everything that happens in the late evening hours of this major city.  Joey explains how his hands were tied - knowing that if he tried to report what he saw that he might wind up being framed himself by these cops.  How do you go to Internal Affairs when even Serpico had to finally leave the country because of his fight to try and clean up just the 63rd Precinct of NY?  But these women can't go to Switzerland - they have nowhere to go - not even the shelters that the police know about when your pimp is the police.  This interviews explains why our hotline at www.sexworkersanonymous.net is so vital for these victims.  If you're trying to get away from a trafficking ring with law enforcement is involved -

confidentiality is the key to our program's safety.  If people couldn't trust that we would protect their identities they wouldn't come forward.  But the members at this meeting said it was okay to be recorded because we've just been getting not only so many questions - but also so many misconceptions about us.  Another reason why we never released a recording before is because each meeting and each group is so different.  There's not two groups nor ever two meetings the same.  We have large meetings held in churches, coffee houses, parks, treatment centers, clinics, and conference rooms as well as jails and crisis centers.  There are large and small meetings.  Some people prefer to be more private so they have "coffee" meetings where two or more just get together at a coffee shop.  Others are either so remote or they are so careful about who sees their face - they prefer to stick with our "phone" meetings which are held at regular times weekly where members call in from all over the world.  Sometimes if the car breaks down or the weather is bad they come to the phone meetings.  This way they can call in even if they're at a payphone or a motel.  Other meetings are done "one on one" by telephone, mail or in person.  Some meetings even have more "concentrations" of groups - such as our West Hollywood meeting that tends to be mostly men or the jail meeting in Chicago for just transgenders.  Meetings can be light and funny or dark and deep.  But whatever the meetings are - they're part of our recovery program where the "therapeutic value of one helping is without parallel".  This is just a window into our program where "empathy" is a tool for healing. 00:53:00Stop Sex Traffic Talknosex workers anonymous,prostitutes anonymous,12 step groups,prostitution,sex workWe have never before allowed in any recording equipment at any of our meetings.  The reason is obvious -

but by her own husband.  When her parents found out they were shocked -but then figured out the money wasn't so bad after all.  She built her way up from turning tricks on the streets and out of casinos into the owner of her own massage parlor so big at one time she had 40 women working under her.   Her daughter saw the fast living lifestyle growing up and wanted it for herself.  She told her mom that she "was going to do it anyway you might as well teach me the ropes so I'll be safe".  Actually wanting to protect her daughter from the dangers she'd find on the streets working as an "outlaw" - this mother taught her own daughter the ropes about prostitution.  They even went on calls together sometimes.  Men pay extra for that sort of thing.  When her mother died from cancer - pain medication was left laying around.  The daughter had been using drugs by that time pretty heavy.  Next thing anyone knows the daughter is found dead from an overdose.  Accidental?  Who knows?  Having a complete mental breakdown from the guilt she was hit with - this woman reached out to Sex Workers Anonymous after being released from the psychiatric hospital.  Taking months to trust us just to tell us what happened - she finally opened up about carrying baggage that will never go away.   She was even now using drugs to cope with the death of her daughter due to drugs.  Now Rose is "clean and sober" as well as having almost two years out of the sex industry entirely.  She has a teenage son and a young daughter in her 20's still surviving she's now there for.  The years of lugging massage tables have caught up with her where she's now on disability so she can go through surgery and pain management to repair her feet and back from all the "wear and tear". 01:25:00Stop Sex Traffic Talknomassage parlors,escort services,sex trafficking,madaming,pimpingRosie was turned out not by just some pimp off the street -

a woman who worked in a Nevada brothel.  Hear Aubrey speak about being raped both by clients, her own husband, and even more than one "on duty" sheriff.  Aubrey was also told that she could not work at the Bunny Ranch unless she spent three days "partying" with Dennis Hof for free first.  There's no other job in the country where it would be legal to require a three-day long orgy first as a job requirement.  This interview explains why TAPS had presented the Nevada legislature with a letter on behalf of survivors asking that (1) the women who are applying for a license to work at the brothels receive an educational workshop first that also gives them hotlines to call for help when they are ready to quit sex work so they are warned about what they are about to walk into, (2) an exit strategy.00:06:00Stop Sex Traffic TalknoNevada brothels,Nevada sex trafficking,nevada prostitution,nevada massage parlors,Nevada rapeA common argument you will hear from many who support the legalization of prostitution is that it "eliminates" trafficking.  You will hear people say that thehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/stopsextrafficktalk/2013/05/20/ex-pimp-of-32-years-tells-all-1Christianityhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/stopsextrafficktalk/2013/05/20/ex-pimp-of-32-years-tells-all-1/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/stopsextrafficktalk/2013/05/20/ex-pimp-of-32-years-tells-all-1Mon, 20 May 2013 08:00:00 GMTEx-Pimp of 32 Years Tells AllDerek Williams, Founder of Back to the Streets, had his eyes opened to his poisenous lifestyle of heinous destruction.  He repented and promised God that to his dying breath he would dedicate his life to battling sex trafficking.  Today Derek and his wife, who is also a former prostitute, literally walk and drive the streets of Atlanta rescuing vulnerable young men and women trapped in the sex industry.  They answer their cell phones 24/7 doing whatever it takes to help these victims experience rescue, recovery and restoration.  Derek will be a featured speaker at the Trafficking in America conference being held starting on May 24th in Nashville, TN at http://www.traffickinginamericataskforce.org/.  You can reach Derek at  http://streetgrace.org/00:44:00Stop Sex Traffic TalkyesDerek Williams,Taking Back the Streets,Trafficking in America conference,sex trafficking Atlanta,Sex Workers AnonymousDerek Williams, Founder of Back to the Streets, had his eyes opened to his poisenous lifestyle of heinous destruction.  He repented and promised God that to hishttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/stopsextrafficktalk/2013/05/15/pimp-as-modern-day-nazi--part-1Judaismhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/stopsextrafficktalk/2013/05/15/pimp-as-modern-day-nazi--part-1/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/stopsextrafficktalk/2013/05/15/pimp-as-modern-day-nazi--part-1Wed, 15 May 2013 22:00:00 GMTPimp as Modern Day Nazi -

often having to hide.  Trying to make ends meet - she was initially met with sexual harassment and abuse.  Doing all the right things we teach our kids and women - she made all the right reports to all the right people.  Only to find herself falling down the rabbit hole deeper and deeper until she was completely engulfed in a sex trafficking ring ran by a university professor by day and a biker from hell by night.  This trafficking ring didn't have to even try to capture her with a gun or a chain because they knew society had already enslaved her.  Running at one point directly to a cop - this arm of the law refused to do anything to help this poor child because she was now a "whore" despite the fact she was under age.  Because no one was hearing her - she became mute.

Her resume is too long to list here.  She's gone from being a child victim of sex trafficking - to now being an educator, outreach worker, mentor, sponsor, speaker, motivator, founder, leader, and just a work of inspiration for others about how freedom can be found for anyone as a promise of this program.  While most other members of SWA stay "anonymous" and some with good reason, Brenda is one of the rare individuals who can be totally open about her past as well as her involvement in Sex Workers Anonymous because she has totally dedicated her life to doing this work. If you'd like to hear more about how Sex Workers Anonymous can help not just you - but possibly even generations of survivors to come after you as well as how this program "works" - then give this show a listen!  Hear how SWA produces not only recovery in our membership - but members who devote their lives to now helping others without hesitation.

Now if a pimp is forcing them to engage in sex work - they certainly can force them to answer a written test falsely. This victim asked everyone from her therapist to the police who came out during a "domestic dispute" between her and her 300 pound pimp who attacked her 95 pound body - and no one would give her the contact information to any of the groups that could have helped her sooner and more effectively than she's struggling with now. Here why she's decided to quit the sex industry despite the pimp now being gone and being "clean and sober" as well as why she agrees with us that we need to produce educational videos for anyone applying for a license about what trafficking is - as well as where to go when they need help to quit and escape.

She brings up a point one isn't hearing much - these victims are often mothers too.  Whether you want to know about sex trafficking in Virginia - or all over the USA (because the pimps move the victims from state to state to stay ahead of the law) - this is the show for you. This victim is interviewed by J. Williams, founder of Sex Workers Anonymous and Trafficking and Prostitution Services. 00:25:00Stop Sex Traffic TalknoRichmond Virginia,sex trafficking,human trafficking,prostitution,sex workHear from a woman who tells us of being sexually abused by a relative when she was only three years old.  How she got into stripping and then progressed into t
