Ashley's story is of vital importance. The number of sex trafficking cases and victims is astonishing. According to the US Dept of State's 2020 Trafficking in Persons Report, traffickers are denying nearly 25 million people their fundamental right to freedom, forcing them to live enslaved and toil for their exploiter’s profit- https://www.state.gov/reports/2020-trafficking-in-persons-report/
