Trafficked in Plain Sight

Every day, human traffickers are out hunting their next victims and it is likely that they will find them. Will it be your child? Unfortunately, traffickers know who they can approach. They know who they can groom. They can spot the little girls with the daddy issues. They know the profile of the young girls going through an identity crisis and low self-esteem. They've studied the behavior patterns of rebellious teens on the verge of running away. They've mastered the art of manipulation and they have learned how to be patient and pounce at just the right time. That's what happened to Mary Kaye Holmes. She was broken, longing for acceptance, and wanted to be loved. She was looking for an escape and thought she was mature enough to handle a relationship with a man she believed to be in his 20s. Yet, at the age of 15 years old, she wasn't ready for the deception of a man who was really pushing 40 years old and had one thing on his mind. Her mind couldn't handle the magnitude of his manipulation because Jonathan was a master of deception and knew that her immaturity was ripe for exploitation.
