How Addicts Are Lured Into Sex Trafficking By Florida's Fraudulent Rehab Centers
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 29 ноя 2017
- Insurance fraud, body-brokering and sex trafficking -- these are the schemes that have emerged in Florida's substance abuse treatment industry. Addicts who are lured in from around the country seeking treatment are getting caught in a vicious cycle of predatory scams and violent abuse in these fake rehabs. A multi-million dollar industry has emerged in the Sunshine state, funneling in victims to exploit for insurance fraud - many of whom are then sold for sex. As overdoses sky-rocket across the country, this is the story of those getting rich off a nation-wide drug epidemic.

These insurance companies pay out easily to false treatment centers but refuse to pay out for legitimate claims by individuals. smh.
Cary Ulmer this!
It's not that they pay out easily it's that these people have figured out exactly how to make the paperwork exactly correct to get what they want... that's the issue with our medical system its based on red tape and if you know how the system works you can take advantage of it Meanwhile it leaves people who are going through a hard time with illness and also trying to navigate their insurance in a field of red tape... these scam artists are doing the paperwork on the addicts behalf and they do it every day all day they know how to make it look like its legitimate and that's the issue! what's worse is treatment is the only real solution to the drug epidemic we have in this country jail and prison doesn't have any effect on it and it's far more costly than a decent treatment program too... we need to as a country invest in a policy of treatment that is well regulated by both insurance and government... there are effective and time tested treatments that work like a methadone program that includes counseling and medication therapy its been used with much higher success rates then inpatient treatment detox centers for decades yet we continue to increase our idea of "drying out" addicts and putting them back in their old situation and expecting them to be fixed because they spend 28, or 90 days in a locked up house that we call a "treatment facility" addiction is no different from any other type of illness it requires medical treatment and usually it's a long term plan not 28 days of no drugs and they are cured!
Elizabeth Ferguson My point was really about how much they fight the individual who has a legitimate claim & try to convince people they don't have to pay out. Big entities like insurance companies know they have more power than an individual citizen & they use that unfairly. I've advocated for many people & have seen this repeatedly.
Elizabeth Ferguson I agree with everything you said up until methadone
Absolutely true!!!!!!!
Knew a girl who went threw this scam, she is gone now and deserved better. RIP Kendra you will always be in my heart
You fell in love with a scammer😞
The medical insurance business in this country is despicable.
Thats why we need universal health care.
Yeah this is what the entire Democratic party makes money from..
@@johnroberts4571 No. If the republicans werent against healh care for everyone this shit wouldnt happen. This is what happens when you let Insurance companies run things.
And then politicians wanna say private insurance is the bestbfor america and to provide proof that universal health is better. And when you show them they say its a lie or say that thousands will die because they will take away insurance if we change it , that they do it for the benefit of the people. I guess they are probably referring it benefits the people on the top 1% , if thats the case then yeah, they are not lying.
@@Piti2X Exactly. You are 100% correct.
Now, being 6 years clean and looking back, realizing I had someone trying to get me to go to a " treatment house " in Florida was probably one of these horrible situations. That's terrifying.
Right? I used to watch that show Intervention and now I’m thinking of all the rehabs in Florida they were sent to
Brought it up to my halfway house manager, the upper people (housing, CEO, basically everyone who worked there) they said it was scary but acted like they didn’t believe me and claimed they lost his name and paperwork.
This is horrible! So why is this not in the media? This is the type of stuff we need to be informed of on tv. I am so sorry for these victims may God protect them.
Because people need to know what's happening with Trump every minute, don't you know?
Susana B crimes of the rich
God hahaha....God's been watching forever. He ant go do nothing.
This is "the media". In fact, this is NBC one of the largest TV stations news channels and media corporations in the world.
This is the most retarded thinking ever. I just watched this on a major media platform from a major media provider but why is this not in the media?
This is just horrible😢😡 I was a heroin and meth addict and was kidnapped and similar things happened to me like Simone.. I still have nightmares constantly.. but luckily I got away and have been sober 2 1/2 years now and have a beautiful 2 year old daughter who truly saved my life!!😊💗 God blessed me with the greatest gift of all when he gave me her!😊🙌💗

This is the first time I’m hearing of this monstrosity, it’s truly despicable 🤮
Yeah, first time I hear it too and I want to go visit florida but horrible things keep popping up in the news. Is Florida even safe to visit?
People need to get some other type of help before trying drugs. The majority of people are weak. If you are a weak person, please don't try hard drugs. You will not be in control. 🙏💯
I almost got trafficked by a guy who was supposedly my friend we went to Vegas we went to a hotel and there was 4 guys waiting saying that If i didnt go down there and make some money they would hurt me. So I went down and ran away from the hotel walked 2 miles to the greyhound station and never looked back. It was scarring. I'm happy I got away very thankful.
did you report them
Just when you thought everything has been invented or done, people think of other horrible ways to harm others and reap benefits
This has been going on for a very very long time. I posted my story in the comments. That was back in 04. In a town called mayberry. Aka mount airy nc.
yep...human depravity knows no bounds.
No kidding..it's sad👍
marquesn77 Ain’t that the truth?
I know I can't wait till I get my big break
I remember saying the same thing as the girl in the end " I just want to make it to 30". I'm 36 now, 2 associates working on my Bachelor's now.
GREAT JOB.

As an addictions counselor, I can tell you that it's these types of horror stories that reminds our field of why we do what we do:
1. Endeavor to help resolve the client's needs...
2) And not just use them as a means to an end... a paycheck (for you). They know the difference; even if some of us, don't.

I am four years sober from meth and I thank God every day for my sobriety
Continuing to thank god every second of the day because it takes more then years of absentness to walk in a better light today
I'm 3 year's and it's finally getting much easier, I no longer think about it too regularly.
Congratulations to you 😊Keep doing what you're doing!

My son and my niece are both addicts. I don't know what to do. I can't have them here...they are unruly and violent NOW. And they didn't grow up with any abuse or seeing it at home. Help! What can I do?? Tie them up in a room??? And go to jail??? Wtf.
You where much cooler when on meth tho
This happens to the homeless disabled too... More light needs to be shed on the topic, the most vulnerable often have no family, resources or advocates and fall victim to those quick to exploit, abuse and take advantage of them.

@@nic0lemari338 what wars did they win besides the revolutionary war.
People should wake up. Our government cares about two things :money and power. Doing nothing about this or our drug death epidemic or the 32000 gun deaths in our cities by black men aged 16 to 35 epidemic mostly gangs over the drug trade , our increasing suicide rate and homelessness etc. They'd rather give huge tax cuts to the rich and take away from social security and medicare and put older people who have worked all their life in poverty. .

When she said she took a hot bath with a gallon of bleach to scrub it off I couldn't hold back my tears omg . These poor girls 🙏🏼😢
So horrible and heartbreaking. I pray for all these young women and men that might be rescued from this sub existence, it's just wrong on so many levels...

One of those girls could get caught with cocaine twice in Florida and spend longer than he will in jail
Because one of the girls who got him arrested picked 27 years because she was 27 at the time
@@Meepurself Um, no, the victims don't choose the sentencing, a judge does!
There's a movie I watched on Netflix called Body Brokers and it is about this very subject. I've worked as a second stage manager in a recovery home in Canada and we don't have this scam here. This is pure evil.
Yeah, you guys just have starlight tours. 🙃
@@Pugetwitch What the heck is Starlight Tours? Which province are you talking about? We follow the law and policy in recovery homes here. I think you're a troll.
I live in Florida and we see these "rehab" houses popping up all over the place. It's disgusting.
There's still nothing done about that?
US sucks big time..
@@baronsaturday9529 Still going on, it's sick.
Florida has always been an especially bad cesspit no doubt but these creeps are everywhere
@@frederickmuhlbauer9477 I'm sure there are. However, theway they use Florida to sell the rehab though I think is the thing that really bothers me. They will sell it as paradise, beaches, sun and sand and leave out the fact that Florida has a truly awful and significant drug problem of it's own and there are little to no actual schedules or programs in place and the "professionals" running these places are rarely qualified to run a 711 let alone a rehab.
Baby face I live in Warsaw Poland mow after NY Hardly any of this here thankfully
As a counselor who really cares about the kids we treat, i am just sick. We can hardly get extra funding from insurance companies when our kids need it. To see people taking advantage of system that is to be helping people treat and recover, is pure evil. The trafficking is just worst then evil.
I'm a 64 year old male who lives in Detroit for the last 15 years. I'm recovering alcoholic of 14 years. All I can say is young women really have to be careful no matter where they go more so than males, because of these predators.
I guess it's time to start giving urine drug tests lol
that's because the people above you probably pocket most of it
@@HackiSacki yeah, fucking HILARIOUS JOKE on a video like this....idiot
American GREED
As someone who has battled addiction and successfully quit, this just makes me soo angry. These scammers preying on the desperation of addicts who are actually trying to get better. The whole rehab industry is a scam, from insurance, to kickbacks and patient brokering. The addicted person must have a personal motivation to successfully break the addiction. Most people I know that have recovered successfully, were able to do so on their own, with support from their loved ones. No rehabs, no IOC, no sober homes. All you need is the desire.
personal motivation is useless when you are talking about neurons, some addicts possibly most of them are..
Eric Lee s
I've been sober 7 years. Suboxone saved my life I did a 9 month program. Thing is I want in asking to taper down. If you don't do it the docs won't either. Then you and up with people in suboxone clinics 5+ years. They trace on addiction for another. Though it's better that being a full blown addict. Your still addicted to a substance. You have to have the desire to be clean and the willpower to follow through.
Congratulations on getting and staying off drugs. I was never an addict, but there have been times when I drank heavily. I cured myself by working 60 - 80 hours a week for several years, and investing my earnings. As a result, I got my life together to the point where I no longer want to block things out. I rarely drink, and I do no drugs, not even pot.
Eric Lee horrifying 😭
" I just wanna make it to 30 " omg breaking my heart !! I remember being totally hooked on hard drugs through my 20's thinking that exact same thing! Here I am now sober for a couple years and 2-3weeks away from having our 2nd child living a wonderful stress filled but love filled sober life! I really hope she finds a way out because it IS possible and we're ALL IMPORTANT AND WORTH IT!!
💜🙏🏻
This almost happened to me when i was sent to a facility in florida in the end of 2015. This shit is real and terrifying. You feel absolutely hopeless and lost and like nobody will ever help pull you out since nobody knows your even there in the first place. And many of the girls in the place i was at went thru this being trafficked and sent thru every facility in that state. At one of the facilities i was at they would stash drugs on the campus for us to relapse on so they would continue to get atleast another 6 more months of insurance out of us. This is real and disgusting and im glad someone is finally talking about it cause nobody believed me once i was FINALLY able to get back home to colorado...

27 years? It should be life. Period.
No parole, no death penalty, no human contact. If anyone chooses to abuse and dehumanize another human they too should suffer the same fate for as long as their victims live. That's fair.
phenixrysing ridiculous
@@thedevilsadvocate5210 ditto
No human contact? Throw em in with the worst animals you can find.
Who said life is supposed to be fair?
This is so awful. I lost a friend to one of these “halfway houses” in Florida. They gave her money to relapse and she overdosed and died. She was a good girl.
Emily Nora sorry for your loss... 😥
They're all good people baby! What people aren't seeing is Why do people use drugs in the first place?!!? I believe that because of the way the world is.... it's set up so that people who aren't super strong, fail... and those who don't have the drive to make it rich, are losers! Hollywoods grasp on the young human mind has racked up so many failures and Hollywood just spits them out, but there are only a few success stories in comparison!!!
Emily Nora I’m so sorry for your loss😊
@cindybin2001 P.S.the dealer will deliver to you in 1 hour or less.( most of the time) By the way the police know all about this but it's too big to do anything about plus most of the dealers are lets say "darker" so they don't want to open up that can of worms. PEACE be upon us all.
At some point an addict needs to decide what they want. Life and death is merely a choice.
Holy crap, I live in Palm Beach County and have been blissfully unaware. This is horrific! You see all of the wealth and natural beauty and never even suspect such monstrosities.
I also live in wpb and been to these houses to get cheap blow jobs Delray is great
Where there’s wealth to the extent there is around there, there’s always monstrosities. Always. They just aren’t always in the public’s view.
I'm drug free since 1986. Amazing. Something s gotta be done with these body snatchers
people involved in sex trafficking should be used in HARD labor till they die out of exhaustion ... let them see how good it is to be used as an item !!!!!!!!! justice is the cure for everything and this cancer of human greed and moral degradation is itching for a cure like that !
I hate to tell you this, but everybody uses everybody for something.
@@MastaSmack there is a difference between a trade based on interest and enslavement ..like consent doesnt even exist in your world ? yo there is something missing in your logic son ! get checked if you really cant tell the difference

I commited no crime. Driving over the speed limit is no crime because I don't consent to the limit being placed.

I know a family whose insurance was legit being billed $24,000 a month for the daughter’s drug testing while she staying at a halfway house. It’s unbelievable

I'll never forget picking up an old roommate who I hadn't seen in years called on me. I picked her up from this house in Delray. She's passed away. This wicked dude worked in the court system. She was ordered in rehab, and that's where he's prey on the week. She would earn a little side income staying at this dude's place and by some medicine with it. He would steal it and trade it for bad drugs...she was a drug addict and had trouble resisting... And would next to blackout being gangraped by group of men filming it and all. She was kept like property....I helped her go away from that dude's place...but she ended up dead in the long run. These predators are in the system. Theirs lawyers, psychologist, drug court order people etc. Oh yeah Jeff Epstein's county. No news here
I could never figure out Why these places get away with charging these outrageous prices for a 30 day detox!?!! It's criminal! This shouldn't be a moneymaking business!
"He would let you know that you just had a four-man train on you for $20. Now I want to get high to numb the pain." I gasped for air and started bawling. I could feel in my chest the pain and aggression this woman has. It was terrifying to hear that, and so hopeless to feel her in my heart so deep like that. I wish I could hug and hold her and tell her shes ok. Omg... My heart .... God bless her.
Kat T Right? The pain in her voice.. uttterly heartbreaking.
You can look her up x make a visit
Same here! That was so sad.
She goes to the school I go to...she could be in a class of mine and I would never know there’s someone near me who has gone through such horror.
@@Zulls23 I went to pbsc too. This is all happening right here in palm beach county. My home. I still can't believe it sometimes.
I am 16 months sober from drugs and alcohol. My life is beginning to turn around and I credit the Veterans Administration for giving me the time, as well as, place to heal and recover from the cycle of addiction. Being a veteran and having access to federally funded rehabilitation programs has insulated me from evil scumbags who prey upon those suffering from the disease of addiction. The actions of the predators described in this video are deplorable and frightening. My heart goes out to anyone who fell victim to these scam artists. I hope every scumbag who is found guilty of the crimes described in this video get buried beneath the prisons they will soon find themselves struggling to survive in!!!
Congratulations on your sobriety the lord Jesus saved me from alcoholism. It’s hard and the devil wants you to relapse and go back but Jesus over came the world and you can to! I pray your victorious in your battle.
Sadly I can 100% relate to the addict's on this video..... I'm 42 years old and I've been in and out of recovery from my heroin and crack addition for over 20 years now. I've experienced what it's like to be in my active addition in my home country which is the u.k and in the u.s ( I lived in Detroit, Michigan mostly living on the streets until I met my partner, who passed away last August,he helped me to live again and Regan who I am but it's to much of a long story to explain but I was finally happy and in love with a man who adored me until I was deported for overstaying my vacation visa and 4 days before my partner was flying here to me .... He passed away suddenly) I found that there is very dark depths no matter where you are that people will go to if they can manipulate a an addict to make money from there pain and suffering, because take from me when your in withdrawal from especially opiates and someone comes along and tells you if you do something for them they will " get you right " ..... It could be the devil himself asking for your soul and at that point ..... You would give it gladly and that's the worse thing and people will abuse the vulnerable no matter where you are in the world there are some people that will gladly make money from your suffering and...... Do it with a smile on there face
Ahh yes. I went to rehab in Florida and then to a halfway house which I was led to by the rehab. I stayed there for 8 months and then moved into an apt with my husband who was also in recovery. Within a month we were evicted because we couldn’t pay the rent . We were doing boatloads of dope and hard. Then came a succession of hotel rooms and when that made money ran out it went to sleeping on friends couches. We started methadone but we were still getting high when we could afford it. Eventually I needed to leave my husband because he had become totally abusive. It was at that point that I went back to that “helpful half-way house.” Within a week the owner of the house wanted me off of the methadone. The only problem was was that I was on 120 mgs and the doctor at the clinic could not legally detox me as fast as the owner of the half-way house wanted. So then the owner told me that I needed to go to a shit-hole rehab run by DAF in Delray Beach if I wanted to stay in her house. I was trapped and scared. I had to come off of 120 mgs of methadone in a week or I was going to be homeless. Well I went there the rehab and upon checking in I found out that I was pregnant for the first time at 41 years old. This piss spot informed me that because I was pregnant they were going to take me off my meds and off the methadone cold turkey. I promptly signed myself out and called the bitch owner of the halfway house. I explained everything to her and she said to me if you don’t complete the detox you can’t live here. So once again trapped I signed myself back in. Now I can honestly say that not once during my addiction nor during all of my depressive episodes was I as truly suicidal as I was in that detox. Coming off 120 mgs of methadone cold turkey while pregnant is not only physically and mentally abusive it is also dangerous for the baby. But I was trapped and had to do what I was told or face homelessness. I made it through and eventually moved back to Pittsburgh where I was from to have the baby. I was done. My beautiful baby Stella was born and in her one month birthday she died from SIDS. I have often thought back to all the physical and emotional stress these idiots caused us, and I wonder if things were different and more humane would Stella still be with me alive today? I had a woman playing doctor who was barely qualified to run a halfway house and the real doctor at DAF was nothing more than a quack and I had to participate in their bullshit because I was afraid to be pregnant and homeless. I am clean today and have been for quite a while thank G-d. I live in Israel and I seek daily to grow more in my faith and my relationship with G-d. this program just reminded me of all of the crap in Florida that masquerades as recovery. As it turns out the “well-intended” halfway house owner eventually had to close everything because of a little insurance fraud that she was committing but you know all in the name of recovery. What a joke. They all took advantage of my vulnerability and in doing so caused both myself and my child irreparable harm.
I used to live and deliver mail in Delray Beach. All-America city alright. One day I had to ride the bus because my car was in the shop. There was a beautiful well-dressed young woman passed out on the bench. She managed to get onto the bus, and a few seconds later a guy came running up to help her. Apparently they were at the same rehab. Both well-dressed and good looking. I delivered to a halfway house. The guy who came to get the mail told me he was doing the best he could to control things there. Said he used to work as a guard at a SuperMax prison and that was easier, especially on his conscience. He didn't last long. Within the next year the place was arsoned.
I had to kick 190mg of methadone in jail. I don't even remember clearly except that All I wanted was for it to end. I should of stayed clean after my sentence. Now I'm on suboxone. Fuck it.
THIS is pure evil. We need more ACTION against this people.
Let the world know what these people do to other human beings. People with experiences and memories as complex as you yourself are. They are being treated like objects. This is inexcusable.
Sad truth is unless major policy makers focus attention towards this issue it will continue to be common place in Florida and globally. The sex/drug trade industry is worth billions and billions of dollars with some very powerful behind the scenes people pulling strings. So yeah not to be a debby-downer, but the chances of any major changes happening are very slim. Since the people who ultimately profit from these unfortunate souls whether government officials or crime lords will still want their paycheck at the end of the day..
Awareness of these issues can bring about change if enough people use their voices. People seeking help should never be exploited.

Matthew 13:24-30
Another parable He put forth to them, saying: “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field; but while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat and went his way. But when the grain had sprouted and produced a crop, then the tares also appeared. So the servants of the owner came and said to him, ‘Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? How then does it have tares?’ He said to them, ‘An enemy has done this.’ The servants said to him, ‘Do you want us then to go and gather them up?’ But he said, ‘No, lest while you gather up the tares you also uproot the wheat with them. 30 Let both grow together until the harvest, and at the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, “First gather together the tares and bind them in bundles to burn them, but gather the wheat into my barn.” ’ ”
The governor of FL tried passing a bill for welfare users to have to take mandatory drug tests. He ownes several testing places. It starts at top. The monster criminals make the laws. Peace.
That's really how it starts. Everyone thinks thier doctors are so noble and ethical. Not!!!! I work for Medicare and I used to work for Medicaid. they do the same thing, they have businesses that they refer thier patients to, It's fraudulent as hell. It's out of control.
Nurse Bennie Sure. And, let's not forget that it is often the doctor who intentionally over prescribes opioids and has those same patients standing on long lines every month so that the doctor can bill insurance companies. Many pain clinics are in the business to get repeat customers via addiction.
@@schoomzer you know it. They sure do. They are partners in that pain clinic and people don't know that. It's illegal for your doctor to refer you to a clinic that he owns or has an interest in.
Making money from Medicare fraud
And the majority passed the drug test which resulted in tax payers footing the bill for all the drug tests.
I'm 36 years old and have lived in Florida my entire life and I never knew any of this was going on until I saw this. I'm so disgusted with my state and if you're reading this in 2020 you'll understand even more why I am so ashamed to call this horrible state my home 🤦🏼♀️🤯😢
Why?
courtney, 2022 now & the Disney news just floored the world.... i hope that some of those caught were from the sober houses. it is extremely disturbing but, girl...this world is corrupt clear to the bone & getting worse. it's just a reminder that the only escape is Heaven! & the only way to get THERE is by believing in the Jesus of the Holy Bible! He will forgive ANYTHING we will confess and will turn awaay from. He will save us from a hell that's even worse than this. and His Heaven is even BETTER than hell is bad! Grab onto Him, courtney! He will come for us soon from all indications around us. and as long as you have faith in Him you know that you will go to Heaven the instant you die! if you'll start reading the New Testament you'll be learning about the way outta this world alive by the one & only key to Heaven. there is absolutely no other way to get there but by Jesus. He died to pay for OUR sins! i hope you'll ask Him to be your Savior & start going to church to learn all about Him & be part of His world. Baptist churches are good but, the Church of God or the Foursquare are great. take ahold & find hope that's better than you can imagine! God be with you.

That's what you "go be happy somewhere else" type of ppl do. Remember that literally every one of us is entitled to an opinion and also free to share it.

I'm so thankful my Grandmother prayed for me constantly while I was using. My last overdose I heard God tell me it was the last time and never used again. I pray that anyone struggling with addiction reach out to God for help. My heart breaks for these girls, boys, women, and men. I hope they stay on top of ridding the world of those responsible for this atrocity. Blessings, love, and healing to all those struggling.
Omg I went to rehab their and they wanted me to stay in a sober living house I said nope going back home and by the grace of God 4 yrs sober. I learned the tools to keep me clean but I always felt something shady with the sober living houses people where relapsing and dying . I felt enough wasn't done to keep these kids clean.
It is hard to stay clean if you don't want to
You have the gift of discernment. Thank God.
Proud of you stay strong I know it's not easy, but many blessings to you.
My son also was there in 2015/16 and lived in or very close to, that neighborhood! He was doing great until around the 6 month mark they called me and said he failed a drug test. He flipped out and said it was bullsh!t and demand a retest. They said no & God have to start all over again. I know my son well..and know when hes lying and this time I could tell he wasnt lying. At this point, If he relapsed, he'd be remorseful & admit it. But he was actually crying in the phone with me and yelling at the counselor asking her WHY ARE YOU GUYS DOING THIS TO ME! I had this awful gut feeling. I told him to get out of there immediately and then call me. I found him a redeye flight home the next day. A year later it shut down..surprise suprise.
When I first got sober,I mean really made a decision to stop, a friend of mine tried to talk me into moving out of my apartment and into some woman's sober house. I said, no way. Some things in this world that are supposed to be good for you could actually turn out to be your hell.
Welcome to America where the only thing that matters is money
Literally !
England's NHS isn't much better. They send you to specialists or doctors make needless appointments that don't offer any real or remarkable treatment. The GP I had used to urge me to make more appointments to see him and when I went to the appointments it was just the same old useless information and ineffective medicine. But the doctors get paid. At one point, the clinic receptionists would call me to make appointments. A few times they made appointments without my knowledge and agreement. It's not about good medical outcomes.
Welcome to planet Earth we're the only thing that means anything is money why would America be any different than the rest of the world,,,,,,,,,
Alcohol is the root cause of this epidemic. Religion is absent and the family structure is gone. Most are white.
@@petestreet7535 most are white?
To me it sounds like the insurance companies are in on it too.
It’s sickening how widespread this is. I worked in a bad area of Daytona and all the girls were shocked that I treated them like people. I knew one girl who told me she was a Schizophrenic and her “man” was taking all the money she’d make and force her to get high so her friends could take turns. She always stuck in my mind because you could tell she was more physically worn from the abuse than the drugs. It’s a real hell hole we live in
Wtf happened to our humanity
It got sold to a select few world elites such as the Rothschilds and Rockerfeller, George Soros.
It's always been fucked. History repeats itself
Omar Alvarez, it left when the American government kicked God out of everything and invited Satan to run the show. Satan is just doing the only thing he ever comes to do, which is to kill, steal, and destroy. How much humanity can you expect from a nation that fights to keep a law in place that allows it to murder millions of unborn babies with beating hearts every year by ripping them apart limb by limb in abortions? Those babies are alive, they feel pain, yet Americans BEG to keep the right to murder the unborn created by God and they celebrate when science “discovers new life” by finding a new bacterium. Something is terribly wrong with this nation’s definition of LIFE! 🤨
No ones noticed but humanity is packed and gone......Was it ever here at all?
The very same people that are bad sometimes are the very same people that are good sometimes
This absolutely floored me, I never knew this was going on. I feel sick just having watched this.
Anthony Strunk yeah me too. Makes me wonder what else is hiding right beneath our noses.....
There’s so much fucked up shit going on in this world
One act of random kindness at a time
the karma cosmos allow stuff like like this to happen
Wake up people. Open your eyes
I've seen questionable sober houses in upstate New York. A couple were owned and run by so-called Christians, people who wouldn't even provide the basics yet took all their clients' benefits. Everybody is not able to nor should be allowed to open a sober house.
God bless anyone that escaped from the monsters that preyed on innocence souls that needed help
This is beyond appalling. You get excited when your loved one decides to take a positive step and go for treatment....and then they have to deal with this corrupted system. It's just another hurdle they have to deal with...
My god her story is absolutely gut wrenching. She could do well as a public speaker.
Amber Alexander so what could you be
Amber Alexander to much nut
Amber Alexander is it fucked up she still doing it
Did you think that maybe she's a complete POS?
@@coffeefish of course after all that not many can say they are anything......her story is intriguing and I hope nothing but the best for her although I know what statistics say.
The problem is they let literally anybody treat addiction. There isn't even an actual treatment. AA is a complete joke, but there isn't anything else. So any scam artist can set up and addiction treatment center, and they do.
A.A. doesn't make any money
But any AA group can be started and run by predatory types. I've been to plenty of church basements and I've seen some disgusting things. Some me go there with fake stories just to lure the weak into very sordid things. I don't want to say AA isn't helpful just be careful who you trust there.
No, Adrian, you're a complete fucking idiot who knows literally NOTHING about what AA is, and HOW IT WORKS.
I attended my first AA meeting in 1980, and have now been sober since 1991.
That's thanks to AA meetings, AA literature, a lot of good people, and working the 12Steps VERY HARD.
Sure, there's fraudsters, scammers, and bad guys everywhere, even in AA.
But for YOU to say that "AA is a complete joke" only PROVES that you're a complete fucking idiot.
You're the idiot. You can't "treat addiction". Only the addict or alcoholic themselves can "treat" alcoholism or addiction.
Everything else, and everybody else, is only SUPPORT. AA doesn't "treat" anything. RSVP?____________________?
Well, if any scam artist can become President of the United States, then....
@@silentumexcubitor6747... thanks for making my point for me. AA treats nothing. It isn't a treatment. And yet every one of these so-called treatment centers offers only one thing. AA. A complete joke.
As a father of 5 girls this enrages me. How could anyone do something like this? Anyone who would do something like this deserves the worst form of torture the sickest mind can conjure up.
I agree 100%
agreed! they are worse than nazis, or at least their agendas are. i feel sure your comment means that you educated your girls on this subject! PTL!!!
my kids escaped getting "hooked", though i know one of them tried a few things when very young. now their children are grown & THEY escaped that world! I'm so thankful beyond words! especially since one of my 4 grandkids is a dr, saving ppl instead of being destroyed or allowing anyone else to be destroyed by any of that corruption! the other 3 have good, sound positions & make excellent money to make their way in the world. praise our God of the Holy Bible, in Heaven! stay safe & stay well. God bless & keep you & yours.
I am 2 going on 3 years clean, was addicted to Heroin for 4 years. Thank God I'm alive EVERYDAY.🙏🏽🙌🏽💞
Congrats girlll
Amy Baby... So you were addicted and using in the womb?
I use to work as a BHT in Delray and Boynton and I stopped when I caught on to what was happening. One of my clients told me that my boss told them to relapse so that they wouldn’t get kicked out. She was from up north with no family down here. They lured her here and used her. I’ve seen people lives ruined because of this young kids as young as 16. I’ve seen death and cruel treatments. Everything in this video is 100% correct and there’s more.
JOLIE' KIMA did you do anything about it???
I went to treatment in Delray and they weren't wanting to let anybody out after treatment, they wanted them to go to the halfway house in Boynton Beach
I just wonder if they could have been involved?
Wait, there's MOAR EVIL
I went to rehab in Delray Beach this year and my insurance was billed almost $300,000. Luckily I wasn’t trafficked but there was DEFINITELY a lot of little stuff that make me question them after seeing this. I’d heard rumors but this is the most concrete thing I’ve seen...
honey... you were still trafficked... just not secksually. hope you're doing good you are so pretty
7:37 this is a HUGELY eye opening and much needed video. This could truly save lives and I’m sure it has. With that being said, you shouldn’t have named the school that the young woman is attending. Her safety could possibly be jeopardized by her past captures seeing this.
The fact that i live so close to these places makes me scared for my life. And I’m not even an addict. I can’t imagine the fear these vulnerable people feel when they realize what they got into.
This really hit home.. especially the sex Trafficking part.. I swear this is the worst thing anyone could experience.. definitely slavery. I’m proud of all the documentaries that are out, shedding light on the issue.. for some reason people in the U.S ‘act’ so obliviously to this... it could be happening in your backyard.
Truth!
America is a great country, but there is evil wherever you go. You hardly see the people or organizations who are helping behind the scenes, but they are there. We all have to ask ourselves if we're doing anything -that's in our power- to help those in need.
Very true.
It is in our back yards...smh. Hold the line ppl
@Big Master wow!
As an addict myself, this is why I refuse to go anywhere. Because I knew already for a fact this was going on and also things a lot worse. That's why when most people get out of rehab or a sober home, they relapse. 97% they just start back using. Still using? Doing better but yes. But can't trust anywhere. I've had huge trust issues already since I was a boy and now at 27, still the same with trust. Methadone and Suboxone are still opioids anyways so why get into that? The CIA put crack out on the streets back in the 80s starting the crack epidemic . Fucked up shit . I feel for anyone who's been through that.
My brother in law has been talking about this for years. He prefers to be homeless in Delray Beach, than be a part of this system.
"I destroy homes, tear families... apart - take your children, and that's just the start.
I'm more costly than diamonds, more costly than gold - the sorrow I bring is a sight to behold.
And if you need me, remember I'm easily found.
I live all around you, in schools and in town.
I live with the rich, I live with the poor, I live down the street, and maybe next door.
My power is awesome - try me you'll see.
But if you do, you may never break free.
Just try me once and I might let you go, but try me twice, and I'll own your soul.
When I possess you, you'll steal and you'll lie.
You'll do what you have to just to get high.
The crimes you'll commit, for my narcotic charms, will be worth the pleasure you'll feel in your arms.
You'll lie to your mother; you'll steal from your dad.
When you see their tears, you should feel sad.
But you'll forget your morals and how you were raised.
I'll be your conscience, I'll teach you my ways.
I take kids from parents, and parents from kids, I turn people from God, and separate from friends.
I'll take everything from you, your looks and your pride, I'll be with you always, right by your side.
You'll give up everything - your family, your home, your friends, your money, then you'll be alone.
I'll take and I'll take, till you have nothing more to give.
When I'm finished with you you'll be lucky to live.
If you try me be warned this is no game.
If given the chance, I'll drive you insane.
I'll ravish your body, I'll control your mind.
I'll own you completely; your soul will be mine.
The nightmares I'll give you while lying in bed.
The voices you'll hear from inside your head.
The sweats, the shakes, the visions you'll see.
I want you to know, these are all gifts from me.
But then it's too late, and you'll know in your heart, that you are mine, and we shall not part.
You'll regret that you tried me, they always do.
But you came to me, not I to you.
You knew this would happen.
Many times you were told, but you challenged my power, and chose to be bold.
You could have said no, and just walked away.
If you could live that day over, now what would you say?
I'll be your master; you will be my slave.
I'll even go with you, when you go to your grave.
Now that you have met me, what will you do?
Will you try me or not?
Its all up to you.
I can bring you more misery than words can tell.
Come take my hand, let me lead you to hell."

awesome poem
I ❤ drugs
Damn this is powerful and so true as an addict myself.
Dominic jaroszynski That poem was on facebook dont act like you wrote it dude give credit where credit is do because the words in the narcotic poem are so very true as for the video the goverment and drug companies have been corrupt for ever we need an uprise to overtake them seriously i wish everyone could see the corruption and say enough and actualy hold them accountable and truly make america great again its not getting any better i dont think anyone that gets into the office will change anything for the people there supposed to be helping only help them selves the rich and powerfull
you didn’t write that it’s all over pinterest
Only thing i dont understand is, well, for example, a friend of mine intentionally crashed his car for the insurance $. The insurance co. investigation was top notch, they busted him. How do they continue to get away with defrauding very powerful companies or institutions without getting busted and the story going mainstream? These companies have some very good lawyers working for them.
Is it that they are all involved? Dissenters bribed, threatened, silenced, suicided etc.....hmmm
That and government comps their losses. The Corp execs are always tight with big government
They know the charges are BS, they don't care because the insurance company is also profiting.
The corruption runs DEEP.
For this level it MUST be all the way up to the top!
Damn, I'm 53 years old and just learning about this today [4/27/2022]. This is truly horrific. And yet the Florida Gov is up in arms about "Critical Race Theory!" This is much bigger than Florida, I know but damn C'mon man. We can do better than this - can't we?

I called a rehab once they said we are in it to save lives, for many counselors were also addicts before. I said great when can I come & get help. They said you know it's 15,000 a week right. I just went and got high.
Omg thank you for posting this I looked online for a rehab , they wanted to put him on a flight tmr. Since he did his assessment today , we all agreed I came home to do more research and seen this ..we canceled the trip!!!! Thank god for this post!! I had no idea, stuff like this even happened smh this is insane. To pry on already venerable lives is sick n shitty.
Cant figure out why health care and health insurance is so expensive ???? Wake up children.
Are u serious
@@jourdanhunt8175 serious as drug addiction
@@freedomcapitalpartnersllp7458 that's her problem but medical bills are really hard to pay
@@jourdanhunt8175 thats my point. Why do you think medical bills are so hard to pay ??? Everyone wants someone else to pay the medical bills.
Freedom Capital Partners LLP Exactly. The more middle.men between a patient, doctor and insurance company the worse the fraud. Doctors used to make house calls for 10-20 dollars back in the day. Now if you spend one night in a hospital you may as well file bankruptcy. We need competition. We need as many insurance companies competing for buisness as possible. Medical insurance would be as cheap as.car imsurance.
I went to an agency to get help with my rent. They kept trying to push me into parenting class and drug treatment class. I just needed help with my rent. Every week they drug tested me. Once, I looked at the name on the cup, it was someone else's name. I was angry. If I got someone else's urine cup, was someone else getting mine? I knew that I was clean; I didn't know about the other person.
Wow. Did your test ever come back with drugs because of this?
Omg! I believe it.
You're not the only one to discover what and more has been revealed about them! You're darn right, and theyre not realizing they are blatantly wrong and ignorantly irresponsible, not at all right candidates to be handing out or handling ir custodians of any parents especially. I think one has to be mentally competent to a greater degree to be authorized for that stuff.
But its widely not really vetted out and they dont really care.I dont care what anyone says to disagree, its just all scam and socialist ideology if not plain dangerously stupid. They act like putting our families at risk is not serious. It is and we know it. I cant wait until they are all kicked out and banned from the whole length of their dangerous and harming polital agendas which need to be faced down thru proper jurisdiction with real law, justice and responsible safety in care professions and institutions we can trust,clarified and beneficial to OUR common people's needs, legit and quality services, not stupid agendas for barely concealed and poorly trained or qualified fraudsters in huge mob of power seekers.
@Kathleen 168 You should report them to that state's attorney general office to be investigated for that corruption!!!!
I think you should report this. Unscrupulous so-called treatment providers are stealing from the government, meanwhile, other people who really need the government to pay for treatment have a difficult time accessing funds.
Just when I thought human beings couldn’t get any lower 🤦♀️well done to the people who came outa this ,ur amazing xxx
I remember hearing the horror stories of the Florida flop houses 5 years ago. Glad it’s being prosecuted and in the media now. Wish it happened sooner

I was approached the same way as the girl from new jersey when I was in AA. I was in the back of cars from people in AA telling me that they were going to drive me to the rehab they worked for instead of home from the meeting. I was getting phone calls from "friends-of-friends of people I met in AA" asking me about my insurance and telling me that I needed to go to their rehab based off what someone they knew heard me say in a meeting. People from meetings were telling me that they were going to show up at my house and make me do their laundry. Luckily I opened up to my therapist about it and she got me to never go back.]
I never thought that I'd hear that about AA. I had a lot of people in AA participating in my cybertrafficking. That was so painful.
It's just outstanding how evil and greedy a group of people can be
All these sober houses are money rackets idgaf what anyone says
I just left one and if you miss a pee test, they’ll kick you out. The counselor would shake the empty container and go “time to pay the bills”
In Saint Paul, MN I know a sober house that makes so much money off of housing deposits. The owner of this sober house company tells so many addicts at the treatment center all this bullshit to get them to pay a deposit which is $700-1000 plus first months rent. Then they relapse the next week and don’t get the deposit back. Then the next one comes in. So if you have 3-4 people relapsing a week at $2100-2800 a month per person. Most houses have 6-10 people living in them. A great business model if you ask me. There is always money to be made in sobriety.
@@seanmaher9263 - that is SAD ASF !! She should also be reported. To hell with her.

@Awkward Autistic yep- those little 5mg vic's turn us into someone else real quick... I felt it was like a switch was flipped in my brain. And I was just like you- Super Mom! With all the energy in the world, and nothing bothered me... I could do it all!! Lol... When all of a sudden one day- the switch flipped and my brain said "hmmm, I kinda like this feeling, let's take 2 next time to see how that feels..." And I've been working like hell for almost 10 years now to teach my brain that- what it felt and what it wants/craves/thinks it needs... Is a lie! A big fat lie... I was 29 when I started to like those little pain pills too. A mother and wife... I'm not yet ready to admit where life took me because of it. But I'm really glad to hear your sober 2 years!! ❤❤❤ Keep it up mama!! You're an inspiration to more than you'll ever probably know. 😘
Addictive personalities for starters. Getting addicted is the easy part. Coming off that shit is the hardest. Never had an opiate addiction. To many friends and family were into it. I was warned never to do it more than 3 days or you’ll get a chippy. I was addicted to smoking coke not crack . I didn’t have a physical need like heroin gives you. It’s all in the mind. Anyways been clean for 15 yrs this past September.
How did I go from funny cats to this?
Horrifying! What’s disturbing is that these women will be considered as going into sex work “willingly.” Despite that they are being coerced and unable to leave due to their addictions!
This is sick America needs to clean this up hurting children
Very sad that her dream is to see 30. I had started using later in life then most. Aroind 40. Started like most. Doctors office visit after a fender bender Then I reached the heroin for 4 months and then for help. I am a methadone patient now and have been for about 2 years. I have had a couple relapses very early on. I never talk about it and I have never posted about it as far as I recall until now.
Sherri Viz You are strong. You will get through this. Life is beautiful if you live it on the right side. Im rooting for you.
Ma God bless you, I got addicted to opiates from a ACL knee surgery and one of my roommates told me to tell the doctor that the Percocets didn't work and to give me Dilaudid and I had no idea what any of it was so in the doctor gave me Dilaudid my roommate had a bag of syringes waiting when I got home and it was Game On from there, I've never talked about it either but I am a methadone patient now for about a year-and-a-half so far I have not relapsed but I'm wondering how I'm going to get off of the methadone I hate it I work outside and the methadone with the heat makes me really sick now and I've worked outside my whole life and never any problem so I started taking a liquid methadone from the clinic
@@mikewiley1652 I was on it to get off of pain medication. It takes time. Sometimes as long as you've been an addict. You need to wean yourself down at the clinic. Your councilor should be discussing this with you. Hopefully you are attending group meetings or one on one sessions on how you will remain clean and NEVER go backwards. I started at 100mgs and literally tapered down to 1mg and the next thing you know, you're done. it took a couple years but was worth the fight. The thing that really helped me was seeing kids as young as 18 (younger than my own kids) looking for help. I couldn't imagine my kids having to suffer what they or I had to go thru. Do everything in your power not to relaps or you will start the cycle all over again. And whatever you do, DO NOT jump off of Methadone for ANY reason! Even tho you may think you're ok at a low dose. I did that at 10 mgs and still felt withdrawls from it. When you get down to the 10 mg mark, wean slowly if you need to. Stay at 1mg for a few weeks if you have to. Some may say you are trading one drug (FUK THEM) for another but it sure beats doing heroin or pills and going thru the pain of not having the drug. You can function and go to work verses selling yourself like some do and living in pure HELL suffering "not to get high but to feel normal" One day you will look back and truly be proud of the person you were always meant to be. It CAN be done. YOU hold that power. Always remember that. I wish you luck :)
Yes, SO Sad! Actually, I got a new chance @life @33. Right as I was about to do the drugs at the end of my block. And soon after the last time my husband had choked me.... God (only voice that I c/trust as His, bcuz I thought it had the most Peace of them all) told me to go to Teen Challenge; I thought I was too old! But it's what I needed (adult program) as I was suicidal, taking antidepressants/ anti-anxiety medication and although I was a stay home mother of 4 and married, he didn't want me no more and was kicking me out after choking me every other year. Now I was not near perfect and had a lot of issues, too which spurned it-though there's no excuse! He'd also cheated.
So instead of the drugs I followed & found Jesus, Love, Forgiveness, HOPE, Community, and the Daddy I was always missing. This community consisted of addicts, prostitutes, mothers, gang members, grandmothers, dealers, church people, sex slaves... and we all found New Life & Freedom together!! We're still connected even though I returned to my own state. And I know I am loved and have Purpose now! I've got a Daddy💖! +I reconciled with my children, parents and best friend. May this bring hope to anyone reading it. God restored my life at Freedom House Teen Challenge it is a safe place to get free and clear. And I I'm so glad I gave God what HE asked for and HE gave me more even though it looks different than what I would have thought. Better than death!

Legalize prostitution. Dont execute people for being pimps or johns. As long as all parties give their uncoerced informed consent they should b allowed to fuk for money. But rapists should go to labor prison for life. And people should not steal from others when they dont need to. And kidnapping people should be illegal.

breaks to farms exsept those who grow healthy vegan food for human consumption exsept no large mono crops.
End mandatory school, ged and hsd requirements, age limits, minimum wage, and exsessive regs.
People should be able to learn how to do a good job they want so they can afford a house and car before 18.
For those who and whos parents can afford it, tax deductible chairty and or the about 180,000dollars spent on k thru 12 per student could pay for it and trash k thru 12 and some of that money could be used to promote more independence and healthy living.
A A lot if these places don’t even implement real empirically supported treatment techniques. Good chunk of it is BS to waste time & money. They benefit off relapses & deaths.

She's blessed to have a strong family that has stood by her. Simone will help others . It is sad that we as humans have somewhat lost ourselves...its savage, evil👌. Simone, you are light
27 years is too short of a sentence for human trafficking like this.
😭😭😭😭😭😭
GOD please help them, protect them, heal their broken hearts and spirits 😭😭😭
AMEN AMEN
GOD is the reason they are in this mess
@@brandonsterlingon6130
The god of this world!!!
YAHUAH gave man free will, and we are accountable for our actions...and will be rightly judged.
Mia Benson-Riggs Amen. God is the way out of the difficult life they have & into a wonderful future.
Lol.yeah cuz that's gonna help...... I'm sure they prayed the first 5 days they were taken. Praying dont do shit. Getting off our lazy ass and DOING SHIT ON OUR OWN does
These women are so strong for sharing with us. They diserve justice.
learn how to spell you complete fucking idiot
REPORTED!
There were also men/males that this also happened to. It's not just women, the media uses women to draw more attention.
Is diserve some type of new pain medication? Visit a doctor and see if diserve is right for you
How do u get justice for a choice u made
Although it's wrong they made a choice that they have to deal with.....
CleoGabiAmoreChisomoNarshinkandinran They do deserve justice - she is correct. You are a cruel troll - grow up - the only one deserving to be reported is you.
I want to open a sober living facility but my place will be so strict I will have a "3 strikes" rule. I'm a nurse in South Florida with a 66 yr old father who is still battling addiction to coke and pills. I want to help those who are sick and tired of being sick and tired. I feel so much empathy from this young lady, Most High please bring her and others like her the peace and strength they need to eradicate that drug demon. Amen.
So the corrupt licensed “treatment center’s” are known as flop houses?
The insurance companies need to stop paying for all of these tests and when they do they need to regulate how many tests they can give a week and the cost is to be no more than a store bought test. They need to heavily regulate these sober living facilities and inspect them often.
Brandy B Agree.
ideal, but will never happen.
They never cared once they uncovered the fraud they continued to let other charges like massages, group outings etc as another bill.
Actually, insurance companies will not pay for every UA tests done. There is a cap on how many tests that will be paid. I do billing and insurance collections.
Didnt you catch the opening speech? Obamacare requires them to pay these costs. Its the law now. One reason your premiums are up 60 to 80%
Well how do you make sure some of these rehab places are real or legit? I think these people who are trafficking women should serve a life sentence. They destroyed so many lives these women will never be the same again.
Your bulimic
I think so too! 20-some years for all the damage and pain caused? Definitely deserves a life sentence.
Nina Fox tryl
True
@@brittaolson6550 Who's Nina Fox? Or how do I look her up?
Really informative I had no idea about anything like that
I’m born and raised in Boynton Beach. It was so awesome there growing up down there. I was born in 1973. In the 90’s it started to get really bad. 2000’s ridiculous! I don’t even recognize it anymore. I’m 3rd generation and we all left. I am in Tennessee now. No way was a raising my kids down there. My heart breaks for what has happened to my old stomping grounds. I mean us kids used to play in the woods and we had farmland within walking distance to the beach. Thanks greedy people and the almighty 💵 😡 makes me mad as hell!
When she said that her mother died and wasn't there for her mom!! I was so shocked and sad!! Omg,I would be so ashamed of myself.
You clearly don't know the power of addiction, don't you dare judge.
And she was smiling
@@noneya7377 she probably was the reason the girl is on drugs
@@noneya7377 ... if you really looked at her expression, the smile was to hide her tears & shame!
woodpecker, .. if you really looked at her expression, the smile was to hide her tears & shame! don't judge. we all have to learn to navigate life on our own & it takes some ppl longer than others. some fail for various reasons but, they are still vsaluable treasures in the making.
