April 14, 2019 by Georgia Mullen Leave a Comment

Pimped up = Beaten up

May 20, 2013 by Georgia Mullen Leave a Comment

I wish people would stop saying “pimp out” or “pimp up.” Pimps do not deserve the glory of having an expression named after them.

Mobster and human smuggler Bill Bedini was back in Albania after jumping bail in Texas. “This [is] payback to your Uncle Edmond for when I was in the United States,” he said as he beat two young women, nieces of the Albanian man who testified against him in the U.S. A human weed, Bedini kidnapped […]

Tampa Bay hub for human trafficking

July 25, 2011 by Georgia Mullen Leave a Comment

Many people know the phrase “modern day slavery” but don’t realize it’s happening in their hometowns. Florida state representative Rachel Burgin admits she was unaware of the problem’s severity until she attended a national conference in Washington, D.C. and sat next to a woman who started an international organization to stop human trafficking. “She told […]
