@SuperTruth77 You think liberals fabricated modern slavery? Are you mad? Did you forget about the Civil War? Or the 13th Amendment? Or Dred Scott? Did you forget that slavery was legal in America as little as 145 years ago? Did you honestly think that just because it was made illegal that it stopped? In my opinion, you're either a troll, a moron, or a slave trader in civilian's clothing. And if you're just blind to the truth, that may be the worse of all.

@trianglepoints That's not Katie Couric. And this is not about Sarah Palin.

This is some seriously misrepresented shit here- people do NOT ship kids in from around the world to make sneakers, they bring them in for sex. Same all over- if you want a laborer, you get them locally, anything else is ludicrous and those who sell this little news sensation know it. You know what else they know? Who holds the monopoly on the sex slave trade, and the black market for organs. All of you spectators will forgive the ringleaders time and again, out of misplaced guilt. Mark it.

Where are all the underage children kidnapped and forced against their will to have sex for profit by a pimp? How come we don’t see any of the victims themselves complaining about it? Why don’t the “millions of child victims” talk about how they were kidnapped and forced by a evil pimp to have sex for profit? I would like to have a interview with the “millions of forced against their will raped kidnapped child victims” So I could hear their stories. Where are they? bebopper76 on the web

In each county, town, village, from Romania, underworld make their own law. Children become a victim safe place for these criminals that money is the only religion. Tens of thousands of girls, kid still, were converted, after 1990, in sexual slaves and removed across the border or trafficked internally.

Human trafficking has become a global business that generates huge profits. for traffickers. Police association from Romania with mafia clans, with law breaker, protection and cover their is a reality, is a mass phenomenon in the country.

Police, prosecutors, judges, are "buy" systematically to serve the mafia

[Duardn]

the key point of this video is that Law enforcement are helpless. it's the individuals with resources, education and HEART that can help and rescue some of these individuals.

Romania is a mafia state with not working administration governed by organized crime.

Human trafficking in Romania is a state policy and a modern retail which feed corruption and organized crime. Organized crime is constantly looking for legitimate business that could be used as a cover.Behind such companies, actually hiding network specializing in recruitment of girls who end up prostitute.

The guy is great; the interviewer doesn't deserve to have her job. Her terrible, sloppy phrasing and euphemisms for horrific things is insulting. She sounds like she's asking about a food recipe: barely guy's points and understating this heinous crime.

For example:

"the sex part" - How about "sex slavery or "profitable rape".

She refers to trafficking as a new "trend". What is this? The fashion network?

"they're not gonna have access to your website!"

"they're in like, prison, right?"
