Human trafficking is very real and a multi-million dollar industry.National Human Trafficking Hotline 1 (888) 373-7888
Human trafficking is the trade of humans for the purpose of forced labour, sexual slavery, or commercial sexual exploitation for the trafficker or others. This may encompass providing a spouse in the context of forced marriage, or the extraction of organs or tissues, including for surrogacy and ova removal.
99% of the estimated 4.8 million sex trafficking victims across the world working in the sex industry are women and girls. 13,000 people are estimated by the UK government to be the victims of modern slavery in Britain today. 70% of the world’s 4.8 million sex trafficking victims are in the Asia and Pacific region.
How many slaves are in the UK today?The Walk Free Foundation reported in 2018 that slavery in advanced democratic nations is much more common than previously known, in particular the United States and Great Britain, which have 403,000 and 136,000 slaves respectively.

According to this definition, research from the Walk Free Foundation based on its Global Slavery Index 2018 estimated that there were about 40.3 million slaves around the world.
Human trafficking is very real and very scary. The main stream media has over looked this situation for way to long.
