One victim was kept in an apartment and forced to have sex with 25 men in one day for eight to nine months.

It discusses factors such as captivity, fear of violence, shame, debt bondage, isolation, false promises, hopelessness, and psychological trauma that prevent identification and hinder escape.

2B/12 sex trafficking at truck stops
This document provides an overview of sex trafficking at truck stops in the United States. It describes how truck stops' isolated locations and large numbers of male customers make them convenient places for sex trafficking. Two common forms are pimp-controlled trafficking and fake massage businesses. Victims are often recruited through promises of jobs and controlled through debt bondage or threats of violence. The National Human Trafficking Resource Center received reports of 79 potential trafficking cases at truck stops in 2011.
2A/12 sex trafficking at truck stops
Human trafficking occurs at truck stops in the United States in several forms. Sex trafficking involves pimp-controlled prostitution and fake massage businesses that traffick victims from city to city. Labor trafficking also occurs.

Signs of trafficking include restricted freedom of movement, poor living conditions, and inability to leave jobs.

They establish rules and quotas that victims must follow, inflicting physical and emotional abuse. Pimps make tens or hundreds of thousands annually by trafficking multiple victims. Victims are reluctant to seek help due to threats of violence, debt bondage, and manipulation by pimps. Service providers must build trust with victims and be aware of barriers that prevent victims from self-identifying or escaping.
1/12 sex trafficking overview
Thousands of fake massage businesses in the U.S. operate as fronts for sex trafficking. Sex traffickers frequently target vulnerable people and use violence, threats or lies to coerce them into commercial sex acts against their will.

The document defines labor trafficking under U.S. law and provides resources on the topic.
7/7 slave labor in begging & sales
Victims of human trafficking have been found working in peddling and begging rings or on sales crews, where they work long hours soliciting money or selling products. Crew leaders typically confiscate most of the victim's earnings, control transportation and housing, and subject victims to violence, sexual assault, and abandonment. One case involved a young man who joined a sales crew after being promised travel and high wages but was then controlled through isolation, fines, and denial of food. Peddling rings, sales crews, and begging rings may involve human trafficking when employers use force, fraud or coercion to control victims who believe they have no choice but to continue working.
6/6 slave labor in factories
This document discusses labor trafficking that occurs in factory and manufacturing settings in the United States. Victims are often immigrants who are recruited for work but then subjected to forced labor through threats, debt bondage, document theft, and other coercive practices. They may be forced to work long hours for little pay in dangerous conditions. The document provides an example of a woman from Mexico recruited for factory work but then locked in the factory and forced to work 17-18 hours a day. It also discusses vulnerabilities like low profit margins and tiered production systems that allow exploitation.
5/5 slave labor in restaurants
Cases of human trafficking have been investigated in multiple restaurant industries across several US states. Victims are often immigrants who are recruited with promises of work but then forced into long hours for little or no pay under threats of deportation. One case involved Polish immigrants working 12-14 hours a day with no time off under constant surveillance at a Chinese restaurant. The document outlines how trafficking can occur through force, fraud or coercion and notes vulnerabilities such as low wages, lack of protections, and immigration status that traffickers exploit.
4/4 slave labor in strip clubs (can be non sexual)
Victims of both sex and labor trafficking may be found working in hostess clubs and strip clubs in the United States. In situations of sex trafficking, victims are forced to provide commercial sex to club patrons, while in labor trafficking victims are forced to dance, serve as hostesses, or sell drinks and food. Victims have little control over their schedule, money, and movement. One victim from Ukraine reported being forced to work 12 hour days, hand over $3,000-$4,000 per week, and was beaten if she did not comply.
3/3 slave labor in homes
A 19-year-old Filipino woman was recruited in 1985 to work as a domestic worker for a couple in Milwaukee, WI. For 19 years, she was forced to work long hours with no pay, isolated in their home, forbidden from leaving, and threatened with arrest and deportation if discovered. Traffickers often exploit foreign domestic workers who are unfamiliar with U.S. laws and isolate them using physical, verbal, or sexual abuse to exert control.
