9-year-old girl offered as sex slave on Facebook by her father

A Spanish news source, El Siglo de Torreón, reports that a man named Arturo Gonzáles posted a nude photo of his 9-year-old daughter on Facebook, offering her as a sex slave.

The post, which has since been deleted, read “Hello, have a nice day. I am selling my daughter as a sex slave, she does anal, oral and she knows how to move it.” He then also shared his phone number to reach him via WhatsApp.

The Facebook status went viral due to its graphic nature. What's even more worrying is that many perverts reacted positively to the post. Fortunately, a large majority of people expressed their disgust and condemned Gonzáles.

Whether this story is true or not, it highlights the very real problem of sex trafficking.

In Mexico, human trafficking is second only to drugs.
