Haiti undercover: Child sex slaves rescued in undercover operation. 7NEWS Spotlight Aug 5, 2018.
It's hard to underestimate the bravery of these two Australian crime fighters - half a world away from their families, they are taking on some of the most ruthless criminals in the world, to rescue children from slavery. It's a highly organised, extremely dangerous undercover operation. If they're exposed, they face certain death. Matt Doran was with the team when it all went down.
Child trafficking is most common in Latin America, the Caribbean, Asia, and Africa. The number of chases in industrialized and developed countries are unknown due to their highly covert nature.
Sex and human traffickers get their victims through the use of physical force, threats, psychological manipulation, and other tactics. ... In other cases, traffickers looking for a new victim may physically capture or restrain their target until they can gain control of them.
The children at risk are not just high school students – studies show that the average age a child is trafficked into the commercial sex trade is between 11 and 14 years old.
Pimps and traffickers manipulate children by using physical, emotional, and psychological abuse to keep them trapped in a life of prostitution. It is not uncommon for traffickers to beat, rape, or torture their victims. Some traffickers also use drugs and alcohol to control them.
