While Melissa’s story is difficult to read about—that such heartless abuse could be done to a human being, let alone a child, for far too long the horror of human trafficking has been ‘swept under the rug’ because it’s easier not to think about it. But the reality is, at this moment so many children and even helpless adults are being forced as slaves to satisfy another’s perverse fantasies, all for money.

But at night things changed. “Women came in an doll you up and make you look like Cinderella and they present you to their customers as a willing little girl,” she recounted.

Some of the girls left and never come back. “I knew they weren’t alive anymore. It was really scary so I just did the best I could. We were never allowed to say no.”

One day—after she had already spent 18 months in this horrible world—a customer uploaded an idea from the pit of Hell.

“He said he had the fantasy of watching a little girl burn to death,” she recounted, as she began to sob quietly. “He took me and poured kerosene from the waist down and struck a match.”

She woke up a few days later in a trash dumpster and heard someone saying, “She needs help. She needs help. I think she’s still alive..
