Interview with Sister Mary Ellen

After attending a speech from Sister Mary Ellen O’Boyle, my group decided to ask her for an interview about Sexual Trafficking. We met with her for coffee and she told us lots of important information. she told us that Sexual Trafficking happens everywhere. She told us about an article she read about how there was a massage-parlor near where we were in which all employees arrived in a black van at the same time every morning and left at the same time every night. A couple people noticed this and called the Sexual Trafficking Hotline number. The massage-parlor was harboring a sexual trafficking ring. She told us that if we are ever to see a situation like this, we should not call the police, but call the hotline instead. This is because the police are responsible for helping end all crime, not specifically sexual trafficking crimes, while the hotline is responsible for ending sexual trafficking crimes.
