Two female minors are victims of human trafficking
There are two reported cases of human trafficking of minors. In the first case, a fifteen year old girl was being kept against her will in Bullet Tree Falls. According to the police in San Ignacio, the young girl was allegedly being abused and exploited at the Riverside Bar and forced to work at the residence of the owner of the bar. The minor was removed from the bar and handed over to Human Development officers. Thirty- three year Estella Pinelo was subsequently detained for the offense of trafficking in persons. In the other case, a report by another fifteen year old girl led the police to the Valley of Peace. The girl claims that on April twenty-sixth, a woman recruited her to work as a domestic at her house in Santa Elena. She claims that she was also asked to work as a prostitute at a bar. Fifty four year old Narcisa Orellano of Bradley Bank area of Santa Elena was arrested and formally charged with the crime of Attempt Human Trafficking. The girl is now in the hands of the Human Development Services.
When man or women take advantage of young girls like this, i strongly believe that these insane individuals should be forced to seek mental help.
it seem like the crimes among women are on the rise right now, I wonder if Estella Pinelo and Narcisa Orellano are from over the border as well, bet they are..
lock them up in jail, and then deport, deport.
Isn’t is amazing that most of the time the guilty parties in these human trafficking cases are women? hmmm…
Tip of the iceberg, and if the Human Services people actual went out and looked for these victims in the bars & clubs throughout Belize, we’d need a fleet of buses to transport them to safety!
Where are these girls parents.Back in the days in Belize the mothers usto be protective of their daughters.As a standard six student in Belize you couldn’t even buy wan milkyway for your female classmate becaus right away the old lady wanted to know what was happening.Come on lady’s unu need to be more protective a unu daughters.
we need to see these worthless women pictures please!!! I wonder if they have children, my God, they no have no shame.
to the mothers of these two young girls, how in the world you trust to send your under age daughter to work out of the house maybe with people you don’t even know!!!
you can’t trust nobody these days, parents be careful!!!!
What is this?… Very sad to see young girls being exploited. What’s more worse is that men are having sex with these teenagers. It’s insane.
