Join Victoria and a new guest , Estella, for the first episode of Season 4. Dive in hard as they cover the story of the brave escape by a 14 year old who was tricked by Trevien Thomas, aka Triggah, from Dallas to Houston in 2016. She managed to escape after being controlled, drugged, and raped for 5 days in various motels in Houston. Victoria will try and breakdown terms used in the article and mention things unseen from those who may not know about CSEC and sex trafficking.
Thankfully, this almost 6 year journey of court cases came to a close this year when Triggah plead guilty to numerous charges including sex trafficking.
Applauses to the Survivor for speaking her truths and the tireless efforts of her family, friends, legal team, advocates and community service providers helping her fight this entire time.
Listener discretion is advised.
