Tonight's special guest is John DiGirolamo from Buena Vista, Colorado. His new book, 'It's Not About the Sex', features true stories of human trafficking so that ordinary citizens will become more aware about how this problem occurs under the radar in our society. John is a critically acclaimed author, speaker and anti-human trafficking advocate. He wrote this book because he believes that human trafficking is one of the most underreported issues of our day, that cuts across all economic, social, racial and political boundaries. He focuses on stories from rural and suburban America, seeking to shine a light on and create awareness of the evils of human trafficking. These stories of human trafficking profile different perspectives: an advocate, a law enforcement officer, a survivor and a brothel madam. The last chapter details what ordinary people can do and tips for parents. The various circumstances detailed are based on real-life experiences and are all too common. Unfortunately, human trafficking is pervasive throughout this country and throughout the world. The personal accounts in this book are based on actual events and provide an authentic glimpse into the evil hiding in plain sight within our neighborhoods. John's previous book, 'It's Not About the Badge', profiles the human side of policing, featuring rural officers. Police officers reveal a day on the job they'll never forget. The book features compelling personal and professional stories of small-town police officers and has a 5-star rating on Amazon.
