Victims: 2 women & 16 men. Acevedo says the 16 men were being held with little/no clothing on—so they couldn’t run. They were enslaved “in some cases for work, in some cases for sex.” #abc13

These Stash Houses need to be completely cleared out. Let the firefighters do training exercises to burn them down, then bulldoze them.

Clean up these neighborhoods these Stash Houses are in. No rebuilding until they are all busted!!!
