Human trafficking at core of S. Fort Myers HS sex scandal
South Fort Myers High School Sex Scandal Update: Girl Who Had Sex With 25 Boys In School Bathroom Was Human Trafficking Victim, Family Claims
"Sex trafficking is a very traumatizing experience," said Estrem.
The girl's mom brought her daughter to Estrem after having saved her from a human trafficker who held her captive for two years.
"She was only 13 when she was trafficked," said Estrem.
The girl was placed into multiple treatment programs, the most recent was eight months long. But because she's a runaway, only a handful of programs would accept her. None of them addressed the devastating ramifications of sexual abuse.
"She did get some help, but it wasn't specific for what she needed," said Estrem.
She was a student at South Fort Myers High for only two weeks when the incident happened.
"She was not equipped to make a stable, rational decision in that situation," said Estrem.
Her mother said the girl went to the boys bathroom to talk to a boy she had a crush on. She said the boy wanted sex, and her daughter complied. Then, word got out.
"She did not sleep with 25 boys in the bathroom. There was only a handful that she did sleep with. In this case, it was more of a spectator sport," said Estrem.
And speaking of that video, there are a few people posting on social media - either wanting to see the video or offering it to people who subscribe to their channel.
When we asked Nicole Waid about that, she said people could be charged with a crime for sharing that video.
