Prostitution explodes in LA's most notorious red light corridor
NYC family convicted of running sex trafficking ring using ‘threats of force, fraud and coercion,’ bribing cop with sexual favors
“Now you can drive by at 2 pm and see it. Families drive by and see 10 girls on the corner, condoms on the ground. The charity’s executive director, Nayeli May, said oftentimes young women don’t even realize they are being trafficked because of the psychological and physical hold pimps have on them. Many are recruited as young as possible from other states and brought to Los Angeles, so there’s less chance of their families intervening.
“What we are doing is addressing the human trafficking at the Figueroa corridor. There is a fear factor or coercion, and in the end, that pimp takes all of the money and she doesn’t get any money back. It’s been an ongoing problem for years, but the corridor has become an area where there’s been an uptick in trafficking victims.”
A young blonde woman in a hot pink bikini and a white faux fur bolero jacket posed seductively and smiled for the men as she tried to balance herself on acrylic six-inch stilettos. Her smile quickly turned to frustration as the cars drove off.
