NEVADA BACKLASH

Image
We called out to have Snoop Dogg prosecuted for pandering in Nevada where we rescued our first victim out from under his 2003 tour recently, along with a "Ban the Brothels" campaign after what happened with Lamar.  I wondered what the backlash would be.  We got it. I got a snarky attack on our page by Annette Rizzolo for one. Then we had a bogus review from "Sally".  The story behind her is when we received a call from a woman calling herself "Sally".  Some of you may remember we had started to post her complaint to us about how the Cupcake Girls and Hookers for Jesus refused to help her as a prostitute working in Las Vegas. We took down that complaint from her about their groups when we realized her whole story was bogus - therefore we couldn't trust what she said about these groups.  She claimed that she was "forced to prostitute" because she "did not have an ID and couldn't get a job" to quit.  I offered to let her

LETTER TO SENATOR LONI HANCOCK ABOUT JAIL OVERCROWDING WITH RESPECT TO SEX TRAFFICKING

Dear Senator Hancock: I was wondering if I might speak to you about Senate Bill SB 420.  Specifically about the part about "jail overcrowding" and the state's newly passed position about not arresting juveniles on prostitution charges.   I should explain that this is quite a day for me to even be discussing this with you seeing at how much the world has changed since the 1980's to what it is today for us to now be discussing sex trafficking at all. I should introduce myself to you before going further.  My "real" name is Jody Williams.  If you go onto the clipping site I have set up at www.hightechmadam.com you'll see about the top of the page some news about my arrest in 1984.  The arrest was supposedly for running a "brothel".  The truth is this was the first adult "safe house" in the country.  I set one up because of the fact every time I'd try and call the police to come help trafficking that I saw going on, or had happene

OPEN LETTER ABOUT THE "NO SUCH THING" CAMPAIGN

Jody Williams www.sexworkersanonymous.com Email – sexworkrecovery@yahoo.com (702) 468-4529 October 29, 2015 Los Angeles Board of Supervisors Sheriff Jim McDonnell McCain Institute California Endowment Re: “No Such Thing” Campaign Hello: An introduction if I may first about who I am to be writing you about this campaign. My name is Jody Williams. If you check the news clips at www.hightechmadam.com you'll see what the news called a “brothel”. In reality, that warehouse was the first safe house for adult sex trafficking victims. The reason it was called a brothel is simple – the world didn't believe sex trafficking was real in 1984. Linda Lovelace had tried to raise awareness about this with her coming forward in 1980. She was denounced loudly and across America as a “liar”. I had stashed a woman there who was escaping her pimp because at that time no treatment center, domestic violence nor homeless shelter would accept a “prostitute”

PTSD, EXPOSURE THERAPY AND 12 STEP PROGRAM STRUCTURE

Wow - this tape I saw today on TV blew me away because it just validated why our 12 step program can be more effective than, or certainly enhance, just straight counseling with respect to the PTSD that our members, or those exiting the sex industry who are suffering from PTSD, suffer from  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9lg2mf6FcJc In this video, Dr. Thomas Neylan goes over "Exposure Therapy".  He contrasts someone who has been through a trauma who gets a "one time debriefing" vs. someone who talks about their experience over and over and over again, or "exposure therapy".  The study found that "exposure therapy" or "talking about the trauma over and over and over again" significantly reduces the long term effects of the trauma on the person. In the 12 step group, when the person first calls the hotline they're ask to "identify".  We have to make sure that reporters, pimps, cops, informants, etc. don't get into th

HOW TO STOP SEX TRAFFICKING, RAPE, ABUSE, DOMESTIC VIOLENCE

Take a real good look at the Bill Cosby case.  Everyone is saying that a "lot of people knew".  The limo drivers, the cast members of the show, the butler, the handlers, etc.  When those women woke up back in their homes - someone got them there.  One woman says a female "handler" told her "Bill will be right in" while she was going in and out of consciousness. Meaning that a lot of people saw what was going on and just remained quiet.  Why?  Everyone wanted to keep their job. I saw Johnny Knoxville doing a "dirty grandpa" film where he hired people to come "bury grandma in the back yard" for $340.  He said "three people agreed to do it - no questions asked".  Wow.  Three people showed up to his house, buried a woman's body in the backyard, took their money and left.  It's on film! Linda Lovelace says when she was forced to film "Deep Throat" with her pimp pointing a gun at her off camera - that everyon

COME LISTEN TO AN ORIGINAL MEMBER OF OUR 12 STEP PROGRAM WHEN CALLED PROSTITUTES ANONYMOUS!

http://www.mediafire.com/listen/383h9wq730d3in7/JEWELL.mp3# Come listen to Jewell - who came to us in 1989 originally.  Her story includes what it was like growing up as a Hispanic woman in Phoenix groomed from childhood on into a life of prostitution.  If anyone "trafficked" Jewell - it was her mother.  She found her way to a Prostitutes Anonymous meeting as we were called then, got married, had a baby, got her Masters' degree, got clean from drugs - and then WHAM! The movement was hijacked when Project Rose came into town.  Hear what that looked like, what happened, as well as what's going on in Phoenix right now with "real" trafficking victims.  Not the ones being put up at the microphones at congressional hearings - but the ones they're trying really hard not to let speak to the press or public about what's really going on. Hear about how when she tried to form a new chapter of Sex Workers Anonymous in Phoenix about May of 2015 - how she ha

LETTER TO PRACHI GUPTA, STAFF WRITER AT COSMOPOLITAN MAGAZINE

Prachi: I can't answer the question of tying the people who are threatening me to Amelia's case without knowing more about the information she has about who threatened her exactly.  You wrote about her threats but when I'm asking you to write about mine with respect to our work with trafficking victims who are LGBT, as well as transgender and Jewish - I'm not hearing anything.  One look around the general field right now of trafficking and it's clear the only people the majority are focusing on now are heterosexual Christian females.  The reason for that is because they've turned this into an abortion issue.  That was why we had to get the lawsuit of ACLU vs. Catholic Bishops going.  We had to go with the ACLU on that because no private attorney would touch a case suing the church.   We've been receiving threats for what was involved in the Supreme Court decision which highlighted that our government turned around and refused all funding for traffi

UPDATE:  Rachel Moran went to a survivor online who had posted a blurb PROMOTING her book, where I had posted a comment under it to the below blog post which is my personal experience, and she threatened to sue HER for slander!    Way to go Rachel - go and threaten a survivor who has four months of "time" in recovery and is in treatment for severe PTSD right now.  You worthless piece of shit - threatening a newcomer with legal action because you can push her and intimidate her and you don't have the BALLS to stand up to me because you know you're wrong.   SUE ME FOR DEFAMATION IF YOU'RE SUCH A BAD ASS - I DARE YOU.  You know you can't because then you've have to prove your story is true and you can't.  So you go around threatening newcomers because you can get your way knowing you can't fight me because I'd win because you're lying.  By the way, threats on facebook are not copyright protected.  Once I modify the threat so as to remove t
