      I think Peter is an incredible conversationalist, and I thoroughly enjoy the way he handles interviews, I just wish you were a little more aggressive in the interview of her use of the word trafficked. I have been involved with charities that internationally try to help trafficked women, and this is not a "trafficked" woman. Trafficked women don't get to "break up" with their traffickers, trafficked women never see their "P***y" as powerful, trafficked women don't get to go "renegade" when they feel like it, they are mostly poor, stolen women, from poorer countries, who, due to the fact they are most likely here illegally, are scared to go to authorities.
      I tell it like I think it is, this woman has no right to call herself trafficked imo, and if you listen to her closely, she gave Peter, many times, in her own words, where she tells you she was not the definition of trafficked. When I see her actions, and what she said, I think she is self-describing herself as trafficked for better marketability, and I believe what she did, to label herself as trafficked, is an insult to the real world of trafficked women.

      She's a trauma tourist telling other people's stories as if they were her own to gain attention and sympathy. All of the places she is telling us she uses to hook didn't even exist in the time period she said she was doing it. She's talking about her special bathroom she used to hide out in Aria. Except Aria wasn't built until 2009. She said quit in 1998. She's trying to tell lies but doesn't know enough Vegas history to know how ridiculous what she's saying actually is. You got duped by a pathologically lying narcissistic.

      Yes…I watched to the end….and to the person who said “she choose this life” …….well yes she DID choose that life…just like every addict. You choose food…drugs…sex…etc. whatever your addiction is…cigarettes! So when you are addicted you CHOOSE your addiction.
      Most of us are different with OUR choices….we choose things for different reasons. Addiction brings a person down to the depths of despair. When a woman is abused in her childhood/teen physically or sexually or both they most of the time never come out of it on the other side as a normal functioning person. They will many times not feel worthy as a person so they turn to men to try to satisfy them because that’s all they think they are good for….it becomes an addiction of a complete mental illness. Think about it….so sad.

    • @rosiekapun207

      Unfortunately, how functional a family is depends on their culture as well. Many cultures have traditionally been patriarchal with outdated ideals in which women were not considered equals. So, parents repeat these values and girls grow up to believe it. It's a very complex issue but moving towards a more feminist society is probably the best remedy for centuries of mistreatment against women.

      @@rosiekapun207 The most important job in the world is that of a mother. I think it’s in Sweden that women are given a 5-year maternity leave. I’m certain that’s because these are the most crucial years in childhood development. If a child is not nurtured (loved, mirrored, cuddled, cooed at, picked up, gets food and diaper changes when needed, etc.), the baby will suffer from neglect and abuse that results in at least one Personality Disorder. The mother will transfer Oxytocin, the Bonding Hormone, during her pregnancy and it’s critical that ties continued after that, in those crucial years. And if that doesn’t happen, you get a Donald Trump….although he also has Psychopathy, a genetic mutation, passed down from his father. His mother was dealing with a difficult and bleeding pregnancy with her next child, Robert, when Trump was 2 years old. Thus, in comorbidity with the inherited Psychopathy, he developed Cluster A Paranoid Personality Disorder and Cluster B Narcissistic Personality Disorder.
      In China there used to be a One Child Rule, due to overpopulation. In that culture, sons are expected to care for their parents in ther elderly years. As such, if they had a female child, she was either aborted or put in an orphanage, where she and all the other female babies didn’t get the Nurturing every child needs and deserves.
      In Christianity, God sees men and women as co-equals - joint heirs to the throne, but it’s evident they have differing roles. There will be trouble if the husband does not submit his life to Christ, but if he does, his wife will be more that happy to follow her husband, as the leader of the family. Jesus was a Servant Leader who led by love. Thus, a husband is to server his wife, and she is to serve her husband.
      Feminism is simply a rebellion against men who do not lead and love women as Jesus did. Women had numerous prominent roles in the Bible. One excellent book and it’s follow-up, was 12 Extraordinary Women, followed by 12 Ordinary Men….written by my well-known and much loved Pastor, John MacArthur. His large church is truly bustling with happy, well-adjusted families.
      But the world wants to tear the family apart, and a man want to be in control, because they reject this God of Love, Compassion, Service, Healing, as a Wonderful Counselor and Peace of Peace. He suffered brutally and died for teaching such things, and at a time when women were still nothing more than chattel. He taught men how to love women, not abuse them.
      And he said, while surrounded by children, “If anyone harms one of these little ones, it is better that a millstone be hung around his neck and he be drowned in the bottom of the sea.” That’s Capital Punishment, so you can see how deadly serous he took child abuse.
      By contrast, in cultures like Afghanistan, and Thailand, Pedophilia is the norm. Try catching up with Diane Langberg, Ph.D., a Psychologist and Pastor’s wife who’s a 50-year veteran Trauma Counselor, has a private practice in Philadelphia, and has done her work on 6 continents. But make no mistake, her focus has always been first and foremost to take on victims who have been abuse by their so-called” Christian husbands. Jesus and the Apostle Paul both warned of false converts, and repeatedly did so. But if men truly humble themselves, bowing their knee to Christ, learning his ways, that’s where the wonderful and healthy marriages and families begin.

    My daughter was a cocktail waitress in Baltimore. One night two men in her section kept asking her to go to Florida and that they had a house there where a lot of other girls lived too, they hung out & the beach, had all this fun, etc. Luckily we had recently attended an informational meeting on trafficking. They bugged her all night long & she kept saying “no, I have a boyfriend. I’m not interested.” They kept on until almost closing, then got really angry and left. These people unfortunately are EVERYWHERE.

      They are bad. I was a cocktail waitress in the 90s. A guy used to come in a lot and tip me and another girl very well. He asked me if I wanted to make $80k as a secretary and that I didn't need to know how to type. He said I would need to fly to the UK, Turkey, and Egypt. When I told him I had many years experience in HR he stopped having me serve him. A month later that girl supposedly went on a cruise with him and we never saw her again. Another guy asked me if I wanted to be a flight attendant on a private plane. I told him I couldn't because I had children but after the other offer I wondered if that was legit or not.

They need to be reported to the FBI trafficking is an interstate crime. These guys are in Baltimore. They’re talking about Florida you call the FBI you don’t call the local PD they don’t give two fucks because one of these guys leave their jurisdiction there’s nothing they can do she should’ve informed, she could’ve save someone’s life and she should’ve had them removed from the restaurant. I mean these guys play tough but they’re only tough to their own stable to their own hoes.

If you saw the town we grew up in you’d be shocked. Small middle-upper class town. Literally no crime. Great schools with a very high percentage of kids going to college. Everybody knows everyone and in general is a real community feel. Her family seemed like nice, normal middle class family. It just goes to show you, it can literally happen to anyone.

I was solo travelling and every single uber driver asked me to be careful as women are commonly trafficked there. Every public toilet had warnings advising women to call a helpline if they're a victim of trafficking.
    Aside from that the slot machine zombies were disturbing and I went to a 7/11 where no less than 6 ppl stole from them within 10 minutes.
    It's easily one of the places where I've felt the least safe and that's after travelling to 50 countries including the Middle East, Latin America and West Africa.

    When I was in the Navy stationed in San Diego CA. I knew a girl who was a victim of trafficking. Her street name was Candy. We were getting to know each other by hanging out and having coffee at Dennys in the late hrs of the evenings after leaving the clubs. I was never a trick for her; we would sit and talk about her life and what made me join the military. We started to get feelings for each other as I was trying to get her off the streets. I had to go out to Sea for a month doing coastal patrols and when I got back I went to the Dennys we'd meet at and I was sitting there for a long time. A young lady approached and asked me my name and I told her. She said she was Candy's real sister and that Candy was killed while I was out to sea. She said she wish Candy would have met me a long time before we did; she said Candy always wrote to her about me. I know she's in heaven now looking down on me because I was trying to get her life changed around. Thank you Annie for what you are doing out there in Vegas.

    Note to people who are confused about her seeming to glamorize her past: darkness can still be exhilirating, and you can “reminisce” about those times of darkness even if you know they were bad for you. I reminisce about days of former drug and alchohol abuse even though that was a dark time in my life. I was miserable at that time but I still found points of happiness and joy in that painful downward spiral. Non-addicts and people who have never experienced the dark side of themselves might never understand this. I don’t want to go back to those days, but there were still good moments that i miss. I’m sure she feels the same. It doesn’t mean she would ever go back or recommend it.

      I think it's important to not hide that part. When a young person is warned about harmful lifestyles and they're painted only in an ugly light, if they go out and realize the allure/temptation behind it, they're bound to think their guardians lied to them and do it anyway, only to realize the truth too late.
      But if we're honest in how alluring and even "fun" a destructive lifestyle can be, but put the weight on the depressing consequences and what those lifestyles are ACTUALLY doing to you, I think maybe you're giving them a fuller picture of what to look out for. Just my opinion though

It's not even reasonable to assume she's glamorizing her past. She would still be living that life instead of actively combating it if that were the case. Some people want to be blind. They don't want to see the rough parts of humanity. It's easier for them to dismiss it and be ignorant.

Old men victimizing little girls (and little boys) is quite literally the story of the world. Men destroy, use, and abuse. They are the pedophiles who rape and groom these children and they are the sicko’s that watch it on their phones with their children and wives. Our society should just quit pretending.

The place I worked at had a 'no male policy' with the exception of another social worker and a psychiatrist. These girls were literally dumped on our doorstep, beat to pulp, and we'd try our hardest to help them any way we could. It has changed me significantly and watching this breaks my heart, that nothing has changed.

    I had a friend who bought a small business on the iconic Sunset Blvd in Los Angeles about 15 years ago. She had a pure soul and was somewhat naive about the seedy realities of the street. She quickly realized a lot of her customers were young girls who were obviously working the street. She would even see young teenage girls who were being pimped. When she wasn't working, she decided she wanted to help some of these girls get off the streets. She basically tried to do what Annie is doing. Sadly it took such a toll on her that she ended up committing su***de. Unlike Annie, she was a complete stranger to that world, and she felt these girls were so brainwashed that her efforts were all a waste. She had such a positive spirit, but being unable to help these girls, especially the young kids, completely broke her. What Annie is doing is truly remarkable. It takes someone like her who has been through that dark tunnel and made it out the other side to do what she's doing.

    Man, I despise traffickers and sadists so much. I personally don't think someone that is willing to dehumanize a person to that extent can be reformed, especially since so many that get out just end up doing it again. It should be an automatic life sentence in many, if not most, cases since they didn't mind imprisoning someone in an unending nightmare.

      EVERYONE is a human being with a story, as Annie said. Terrorists who have done despicable, sadistic actions CAN learn to see & FEEL what they've done. Remember, those who are drawn into these kinds of activities have been SHUT OFF from their own humanity. It takes time & patience to reach them. Then even more time & patience for them to begin AT-ONE-MENT. It can be done. We find our humanity by guiding them to theirs. We LOSE our humanity with judgment & UNFORGIVENESS.

    • @Kehwanna

      @@bertanelson8062 I do believe and surprisingly agree with what you are saying, but it would take A LOT of something (Idk what) for that miracle script-flip to happen. Sadistic human traffickers like Peter Scully (I don't recommend looking him up if you don't know who he is due to the story being rage inducing) are so unapologetically far gone in their sick ways that it makes it arguably impossible to believe someone like that can be rehabilitated, unless we get to an some sci-fi esque era where we can just go inside a sadist's head and clean up whatever is propelling them upon their arrest.
      I personally don't know how rehabilitating them can be done, but I won't argue against forgiving them or recognizing their humanity while incarceration. I'm not for torture or anything, just life in prison so they can't return to harming anyone or get revenge on anyone. Long comment on my end, sorry. Respect to you for what you said, though.
