Abducted Survivor Speaks Up

Our Panel of experts in human trafficking discuss their work and what is needed for a call of action. Professor Kelly Galindo (Director of "26 Seconds" documentary), Pastor Kevin Brown (Side by Side Church & Harbor Outreach), Pastor Doug Bennett (Magdalene Hope), Brenda Jimenez (Refuge for Women), and survivor advocate Melissa Whiteman.

Kidnapped at 13
Melissa was born and raised in Orange County, California in a very abusive home. As a young girl, she was kidnapped, trafficked, and forced to use drugs as a means of control. Nine months after her abduction, she escaped by jumping out of a moving vehicle. Unable to escape the mental torture she endured, she ended up working on the streets of Los Angeles to support her crack habit. Now, Melissa is a survivor advocate speaking up for victims of the sex trade.
