Baby and Two Kids Rescued from Sex Trafficker

2 Children and Baby Rescued from Sex Trafficker

A baby and 2 kids are safe from a human trafficker who was exploiting the children online.

The criminal was abusing his nieces online for Western predators, charging as little as $40 per session.

When authorities in the US caught one of his American customers, the Department of Homeland Security worked with Destiny Rescue and the Filipino NBI to take the trafficker down.

The 8-year-old siblings and 1-month-old baby were taken to safety by gentle caseworkers. The trafficker fought officers during the arrest, but was eventually taken into custody.

The kids have a long journey to recovery. But thanks to this joint operation, they’re finally ready to begin new, brighter lives!
