Pimp and the Prey
Submitted by Kate on July 21, 2007 - 1:59am.
A young girl runs away from home because of verbal or physical abuse from her father. She hops on a Greyhound Bus and winds up at a station in downtown Atlanta, lost and alone.
"Pimps are masters of manipulation," states Alesia Adams, the Salvation Army's coordinator of forces against sex trafficking, "they have perfected it to a science."
With his diabolically innate street smarts, he spots the young runaway as soon as she gets off the bus. She is taken captive by his words, for he tells her what she's wanted to hear for so long, "You're so beautiful. I love you. I accept you. I'll take care of you."
Case studies show that the girls are literally brainwashed into believing the pimp truly loves them. This is accomplished by the use of various drugs (which weakens the brain and causes dependence), receiving gifts and verbal praise, and then a sharp turn involving physical, sexual, and verbal abuse. read more »
