General Analysis Outline

I.

Introduction

In my outline, I will be discussing my topic on human sex trafficking for women in the
United States of America. To first understand what human sex trafficking is, you have to
understand The definition of human sex trafficking. Human sex trafficking is the trade of humans
most commonly used for sexual slavery and exploitation. The majority of victims that have to
endure this are mostly women and children who cannot defend themselves. You also have to
understand where and why it happens.

Body

Human sex Trafficking an illegal

a. Human sex trafficking is one of the laws that get pushed aside when it comes to
not being that bad or it is overlooked. This issue needs to be talked about because
it is a problem that is affecting Americans everywhere.
b. The research that I collected about sex trafficking is that it is a form of modern
slavery of men, women, and children selling their bodies. The people getting
exposed to this are used for escort service, adults may be involved simply because
of their partners, kidnappers, and or drugs.
c. 40 % of homeless people in America somehow are also used in prostitution and
they found. What people have to go through in these heinous crimes are terrible,
and it effects them every day mentally and physically.

Research of Sex trafficking

a. Sex trafficking is illegal; this is where the 13th amendment comes into place and
the 13th amendment says it abolished slavery and involuntary servitude.
b. My supporting claim is that I have researched are peoples stories and what they
all had to go through, there are a few documentaries that I have seen.
c. In those documentaries, I had seen what these young women had to go through
and all of the hardships because they are also described as criminals when it is not
their fault and they are labeled as prostitutes and bad people.

Stories of sex trafficking

a. A couple of stories of sex trafficking is one of Kika Cerpa survived an ugly

crime, who at the ripe age of 14 was sold into slavery, but unlike some people
she had jobs beforehand. In Cerpas case she was kept in a basement by
herself after arriving in America as a young woman. She was working as an
accountant when she fell in love with a coworker, where the coworker
introduced Cerpa to his cousin, Sandra.
b. Sandra who promised Cerpa that she was going to be a nanny and when she
arrived in the U.S Sandra took her passport and her money, she said that her
cousin owed her money and the only way she could pay it off was working.
The next day Sandra took her to a brothel, where she forced Kika to sleep with
20 men and Sandra took all the money and forced Cerpa to slavery.
c. Cerpa managed to escape to the train station, where she was sleeping because
she could not find a home, so she went back to the brothel where the pimp
said he would give her a place to sleep, but he continued using her as a sex
slave and Cerpa was stuck. She was finally removed from the sex industry
when she married one of her clients, when it got violent she left him and
finally started going to counseling where she never imagined being a
prostitute, but she faced it head on and now she is a better person for it.

Conclusion

a. So after all my research I have gotten, Human Trafficking is a very serious issue

in America. There are 20 to 30 million people who are getting kidnapped every
single day. We need people to step up and make a difference for all of us because
this is a major issue. It is going to get better because the FBI is stepping up by
prosecuted sex trafficking victims as prostitutes. The futility of prosecuting
human trafficking victims as criminals was not lost on prosecutors because they
think they are bad people, but they are not because they have been through things
we cannot even imagine. I really want to focus on this topic because it is
important and Im ready to learn more about it.
