About Trafficked: Two Sisters Lost
San Diego may be known for its beautiful beaches, mild weather, and year-round outdoor lifestyle, but the FBI has also identified the city as a high intensity child prostitution area and a gateway for international human trafficking. "Trafficked: Two Sisters Lost" is the story of two vulnerable young sisters, separated from each other, sexually exploited, suffering from inhumane living conditions, and confronted daily with physical and emotional abuse.
Erin, a part-time journalist with a weekly newspaper in the San Diego area, is assigned a task to write a series of articles about the brutal industry of human trafficking that, depending on the source, is the second or third most profitable criminal activity in the world. In doing so, she not only becomes aware of the magnitude of the problem, but becomes deeply involved in the efforts to rescue and reunite the two lost sisters.
