Investigators found one of the women told her traffickers she wanted to quit. Her traffickers told her she had to finish out the week.Police raided six Chicago-area brothels Wednesday, rescuing seven women from their traffickers, said Kane County First Assistant State's Attorney Christine Bayer.
"This is the degradation of humans," Bayer said of human trafficking."They are not seen as people ... they are looked at as a commodity." All are charged with involuntary servitude, a Class X felony punishable by up to 30 years in prison if convicted. Each also is charged with one count of trafficking in persons for labor, 10 counts of involuntary servitude and four counts of promoting prostitution for profit, all Class 1 and Class 4 felonies.
