Christmas on the streets: What is the best sex trafficking victims can expect?

This post was written by Holly Craw

For Julianne*, Christmas will just be one more day.  Business as usual.  Even though she is only 14, she will have to work all night, possibly standing out in the cold on a street corner.  She will solicit men to use her body a dozen or so times, and won’t be allowed to return “home” until she brings in the amount of money required by her pimp.

Most likely, Christmas dinner won’t be an option for this girl and multiple thousands like her around the country.  If she gets to eat at all while she is working, it is only because she used some of her profits to get a fast food item on the sly.  She will probably pay dearly for this with a sound beating from the pimp.  He may randomly find other infractions of the house rules for which she needs to be punished.
