search turns up valuable evidence. i got a residence right here. the business side of escorting. ooh, contracts. he s got all the girls right here. tonight s raid will mark the end of a long, successful day of work for these officers, but it s only the beginning of an ongoing fight. we recovered four juveniles during the operation. we ve identified numerous pimps and i think we ve probably opened up roughly 20 state cases as well as six federal cases. he s got everything in here. appointment books, schedules. don t judge a book by its cover. just because i live in a nice house doesn t mean i live a nice life. eeze my account.

trying to figure out where she should go tonight. what kind of help we can offer her so hopefully she doesn t return to this kind of life. alicia s silence is all too familiar. detectives suspect the 16-year-old has muzzled herself out of fear of reprisals from her alleged pimp. just one jail cell down, there is a teenage girl more than ready to talk. meet daisy oliver, not her real name. a suburban girl next door who made a wrong turn and ended up being sold for sex to strangers. the teen s arrest for prostitution is less than an hour old when she sits down with detectives who want to know more about her pimp. so what d he say about the money? he gets 40% of everything the girls make. did he look at your i.d.? didn t care to look at your i.d. at all? how did he find your ad or tell you about your advertisement? they just told me, they were like, well, we need some
