Day 26: for Rosa

Rosa's story was featured on America's Most Wanted.  Her traffickers have not yet been brought to justice.

From Rosa's story:
"Just like on America's Most Wanted, this Rosa is a composite of several real women, and they are only a few of the 50,000 people a year who are smuggled into the United States and treated as slaves. These victims of human trafficking are forced into a variety of exploitative situations including prostitution and hard labor.
"Law enforcement is working to stop the awful trade in human trafficking -- and activists are doing their part to make sure that the victims of this crime are treated in a respectful and humane way."
