13. It's what happens in a corporate run red state. The statehouse, Ricketts & Pillen knew.

5 Packer Sanitation Services plants.
No state law enforcement stops these corporations.
It takes the Dept of Labor from evil "big guv" to catch corporations in the act.

The statehouse, Ricketts & Pillen knew.
Now Ricketts is in the Senate.
They're all accessories after the fact.

There's probably no legal recourse or compensation for the trafficked juveniles themselves.
This has likely gone on for years; the AG's website even admits it; he hasn't even made a CYA move to protect exploited, trafficked youth.

Children would be put to work wherever corporations run a country like a business and a small town like a company store.
No wonder youth today don't trust anyone over 30.
