Just over a week ago, I took my graduate level comprehensive exam and three days ago I was given the results. I passed...in just 13 days I will officially have a master's degree in counseling! I am asking God to show me if counseling survivors of sex trafficking is in His plan for my future.
Due to studying over the past two months, I have not been keeping up-to-date on my blog. Now that I have more free time, I am hoping to continue raising awareness, researching, and educating about modern-day slavery. I will start by sharing a couple of articles related to human trafficking in Milwaukee.
4 Arrested in Human Trafficking Operation
A trafficking victim's threat to report leads to a shooting.
"The 21-year-old shooting victim, identified only as HSC, told police that Triplett grabbed her by the hair and was pulling her to the basement where he said he would kill her when his gun fired."
Convicted Pimp Get Long Federal Prison Term
"Patrick pleaded guilty in November to child trafficking conspiracy and to recruiting three 16-year-old girls to work as prostitutes, then shipping them to Chicago and elsewhere over a five-year period, enforcing his demands of near daily productivity with violence and psychological coercion."
Throwing the Book at Pimping
An opinion column discussing recruiting methods of Milwaukee pimps.
God asks me to love these pimps. I don't really know how to do that, but I pray that as they spend their days in prison, they would meet Jesus and be changed.
