Ya, I get that feeling when I see “Washington Post”. But I guess there’s some remote chance the story is real, but who knows?

Good for that deputy! I’ve been stunned by the numbers of sex traffickers that are out there. These guys are doing terrific work...

“How many of you have said, ‘I’m gonna bust a drug dealer’?” Again, many hands. “How many of you have ever said, ‘I’m going to rescue a child tonight’? Or ‘I’m going to catch a child molester’?” No response.

Prestridge asks this question at every training session — this was his 97th — and he’s become accustomed to that reaction. “Why is that?” he asked. “Why don’t police make that a goal before their shift?” His audience was silent. “I’ll tell you one reason why,” he offered. “Because there’s no box to check.”

The 'box' is symbolic - it's purpose is to create focus... Hard to see what we're not looking for or aware of...

Planned Parenthood is neck deep in this. If the cops want to catch child sex traffickers they should monitor the PP clinics.

’ (a sex-trafficking victim), sobbed. “I’ve been praying,” she told him, “every second I could, to be rescued.” Kelly was arrested and later sentenced to 11 years for interstate transportation of a minor for prostitution.

That was a long and very good read.

Just one small excerpt on one of the indicators. How strange is this?

"Prestridge told Bourke about one potential indicator he’d been mulling: Some IPC-trained police reported that the trafficking suspects they arrested often bore tattoos on their neck or face. Bourke didn’t “see how there could be a connection” but volunteered to conduct an experiment using the U.S. Marshals’ national database. He pulled 600 random samples of people arrested for trafficking children and 600 arrested for assault and found that, yes, child traffickers were more likely to bear tattoos on their face and neck (assault suspects were more prone to have tattoos on their hands). "

The tattoo culture is very strange to me, I am clueless about it.
