Teenage Trafficking in Toledo - Warning!

[zpsny51491]

It's sad to say, but the cops obviously had a hand in this. The criminals get no time, and the cops take their ****in time gettin there....cops are supposed to deal with problems by priority like a hospital would, not in a line-like fashion like a grocery store would......

Investigates: Teenage Trafficking - Friday, October 9, 2009 - mReplay LiveDash TV Transcript: Search Live TV, Twitter, Facebook, News, Blogs, Video sites and other real-time social networks[/URL]

This one girl was kidnapped, forced into prostitution; yet her own Dad found the house where she was being held ---- they called 911, there were SEVEN calls placed, from them, and from a neighbor, when the Dad got tired of hearing his daughter scream --- he broke into the house, to rescue his daughter.

IT TOOK THE TOLEDO POLICE 90 MINUTES, TO EVEN ARRIVE ON THE SCENE.

The paramedics and a TV news crew arrived before the Toledo police!

Not only that: the man who kidnapped these two teenage girls, and the two adult prostitutes who helped him, and the trucker who transported them across state lines, weren't even held in jail.

They got out on bail.

It's very obvious that the Toledo Police Dept. is on the take.

Beware. Make sure you know where your daughters are, at all times.

It's kind of odd........I was sitting, watching that show with my daughter, and I literally couldn't believe it would take a POLICE DEPARTMENT an hour and half, to respond to a KIDNAPPING CALL. I told my daughter they were probably all parked somewhere, handing out tickets to $$$increase revenue,$$$, then I come here to post about it, and I see threads about speed traps in Toledo, and how they'll give you a ticket for any little thing.

It's all about the $$$$$$$$$$$$. How rotten can you get?!

I certainly hope that that father had the sense to sue everyone in the police dept involved in the 911 calls and also the city of toledo I would love to sit on that jury how could a officer on duty that nite and the 911 operator live with them selves after they're actions that nite they should be brought up on charges them selves shame on you Toledo

Thats actually why the city is in debt now and why police were laid off a few months ago only to be hired back because of pressure from the public. Im with you when it comes to response times and handling the human trafficking problem, but I also understand why the city is in the current state its in now.

And truthfully, I feel speeding tickets is the last thing on their minds right now IMO. Although a few months ago we were getting tickets for parking in our own driveway just because of it being made out of gravel, but that wasnt so much a way for police to get money, but a way to make the city money....

I dont think the city makes ANY money from either busting pimps, issuing speeding tickets, or collecting money from taxing us poor Toledoans to put our trash out every week right now or maybe someone is being greedy with the money. I dont see how the city can be in debt and still have money to plant flowers. That must be nothin more than a Carty thing...

I dont know if your from Toledo or not, but we got more problems going on right now than worrying about speeding tickets... In the past year we've lost more jobs here than ever before, yes Toledo is the hub for human trafficking and that definitely is a major problem that needs to be addressed, but now there seems to be more gun violence taking place than in previous years simply because the police department is understaffed. And recently I saw an article that said Toledo is ranked the 8th poorest big city in the US... Why??? I have no idea, but our poverty rate is one of the highest in the nation... Well, hope everyone goes out and vote today....

The city doesn't make money from "busting pimps", they make money from being paid off by looking the other way..........I'm not trying to hijack this thread, but I have another thread where I've been having problems with possible intruders, and I was told I was being paranoid! Aparanoid person:

locks doors and windows at ALL times
Knows where their children are, especially their very attractive daughter
Has a full house alarm and keeps it armed
does NOT allow her teenagers to go to the mall, movies, etc, without supervision---I either drop them off, pick them up or know who does

Also, I'm starting a block club---AKA paranoid parents and others with time on their hands!
