Interstate 20 is the corridor for sex trafficking from Dallas to Atlanta. The City of Clinton sits roughly in the middle. It now has more eyes being trained to look for victims who are trapped in the prostitution and labor system. The message to Clinton Firefighters and first responders is to take a second look at the scene and the people there, especially minors. "Their very nature is to rescue. These victims need rescuing," said FREE International Director Jody Dyess, who is conducting the training session. While working fires, accidents and medical calls, they are learning to look for signs of minors and others kidnapped or held against their will and forced into the sex trade. The training session teaches them the red flags.
