Taking pictures of your hotel room helps investigators

 

Snapping a few photos of your hotel room when you're traveling—simple, right?

Simple AND it can help combat sex trafficking!

Traffickers post photos of victims posed in hotel rooms for online ads. These photos are evidence that can be used to find and prosecute the perpetrators of these crimes. But investigators must be able to determine where the photos were taken.

The purpose of TraffickCam is to create a database of hotel room images that an investigator can efficiently search and use to determine where perpetrators of sex trafficking are committing their crimes.

So, if you want an easy way to help combat trafficking, simply download the TraffickCam app, snap a few pics of your room, and add it to their database.
