I found this by random and I'm so shocked to read Annie's name in this. Maybe I can clear a few things up because she was my mentor when I worked in san fran at the age of 18. She has always been and still is a member of the same outreach group I'm apart of, SWOP (sex worker out reach program). She's a mentor and aide for those who are in the industry or exiting. She gives seminars and such.
If she was involved in this at all then I see it from an outreach point of view, someone sought her for help to get out and she may have provided means (phone #'s or map points). What we do is on the up and up but there are times that certain SWOP members take someone in under their wing that is being held against their will by a pimp. This may have been the situation here, maybe Laureen ran off with someone or was taken by someone she had just met - and forced into prostitution? Annie is very involved with helping not aiding. She's a feminist and a wonderful woman - she really is. I cannot see her doing anything malicious or shady, definitely nothing with child *advertiser censored*!
This abuse hotline is strange though, a Dr and his wife ran it? I'm going to guess they were part of the sex worker underground and helped get people out or in touch with those that could, it would make sense why they wouldn't disclose things - it would put others in danger against pimps and operations.
I can look more into this, not sure what good I can do but I can try if someone can post or PM all the information that's accurate.
