23 Child Prostitutes rescued in King County

Sometimes, I get to post videos that I have fun making.
Today is not one of those days.

While there is good news: 23 girls in child prostitution (one as young as 12 years old) have been taken off highway 99 into custody.

The bad news is, firstly, they were in those circumstances, and secondly, "For the third year in a row we've led the nation, which is a good and bad thing," said Steven Dean, Assistant Special Agent in charge of the FBI's Seattle office when referring to the King County Area.

Read the Komo News Article here.

Here's the video:



That section of 99 is walking distance from where Jubilee practices. The problem is in our backyard! Stories like this make me more thankful for everyone doing their part to crack down on forced prostitution, and motivates me to keep doing mine.

If you're moved for these girls and others in their same situation, pick up a pen and write your senator, or check out our page about this cause for more information.

Much love,
Steven
