SEX WORKERS AND RAPE

http://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/crime/suspected-serial-rapist-charged-in-seattle-rape-case/  It was awesome to read that a sex worker was able to have her voice heard and the Seattle police went after this guy and got him.  Kudos Seattle.

However, one of the reasons our hotline was born was because not every sex worker CAN call the police for one thing everywhere yet and get that kind of help.  The other was because sometimes the one harming us IS the police.  You want to help fight sex trafficking and get these men and women out of sex work?  How about working on why we can't turn to the police for help everywhere yet in this country and feel safe doing so?   http://www.dailynews.com/general-news/20160218/2-lapd-officers-plead-not-guilty-to-sexually-assaulting-4-women

If you need help to leave the sex industry for any reason - you can get help at www.sexworkersanonymous.com  If someone is raping you, pimping you, or otherwise dangerous - please let us know so we can post the information at www.pimpalert.com  

Thank you.

CHICAGO POLICE TRAFFICKING 14 YEAR OLDS

To Reporter Craig Walls - this case http://www.fox32chicago.com/news/local/33667842-story is EXACTLY why our hotline is so important as well as the Children of the Night hotline for minors. Most victims of trafficking CAN NOT CALL THE POLICE for one reason or another. The National Trafficking Hotline is great - however for those who can't call the authorities for help it leaves them no options as they either report to the authorities, or they refer to a task force headed by authorities. When I founded the movement to have sex trafficking recognized - it was two parts. Yes I wanted people to know trafficking was real but the SECOND PART was that we can't call the police for help in most cases. I'm working on a case right now where a woman was drug out of her house by two Pasadena officers. When I stepped in to help her - I was threatened by another officer myself. http://sanitytodayonline.blogspot.com/2015/05/the-sound-of-music-and-pasadena.html This case is al

SESTA/FOSTA OPPOSITION

https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2022/09/fight-overturn-fosta-unconstitutional-internet-censorship-law-continues I know when something doesn't make sense, to go check back on it later on. Now maybe I look at this lawsuit a bit differently because I've been working as a paralegal for so long now, but when I've shown this case to various lawyers - they all say the same thing - this case will be dismissed for a lack of standing. EVEN IF they can prove standing, they can't prove damages. If they can't show actual damages by SESTA/FOSTA - then how on earth are they going to prove they can over turn this case. I do know that "Alex Andrews" wormed her way into being in this case above and beyond myself - who I knew couldn't prove any standing or damages that SESTA/FOSTA harmed her, especially since I knew not only was this someone claiming to be a working sex worker, someone who others were telling me was still in sex work, but further wasn't even her
