Law and Order Special Victims Unit - And the Empire Strikes Back - Preview

Human trafficking comes in all different forms. The sad part is we only hear about the women who get kidnapped and sold into sexual slavery across international borders. When in reality, human tracking can be found anywhere in any situation. The season finale of Special Victims Unit, called Wolves in Sheep's Clothing, tells a young mother, Rosa, who ended up homeless. But soon, her luck changed, and Rosa and her son got into subsidized housing. She believed God blessed her and her son by getting them out of the shelter and into a new apartment where it was safe. 

But soon, Rosa found out the apartment's actual price where she was forced to perform sexual acts, high profile men. Or Rosa's other option would have been to go back to the shelter. So she did it for her son. 

The new season has come, and so has the continuation of the story. In the season premiere "And the Empire Strikes Back." The SVU squad gets tested like they have not been in the past. The investigation continues to bring the person in charge of placing vulnerable women and young children into these apartments. But this gets complicated when a U.S senator and future presidential candidate becomes a suspect.
