This new study is part of the March 2015 issue of The ANNALS of the American Academy of Political and Social Science.

Los Angeles, CA - Media portrayals of underage sex trafficking include pimps luring girls into prostitution and then controlling, exploiting, and brutalizing them as if they were slaves, but just how representative are these images?

This study was published in a new article from the May issue of The ANNALS of the American Academy of Political and Social Science.
