There are many ways in which the Human Sex Trafficking industry finds ways to operate and to increase their revenue sources. It’s with great heartbreak in discovering yet another deep level where traffickers pay women in some cases and force others including young girls who can procreate for the sale of their babies directly into Human Sex Trafficking called Breeders. There are other names associated with this such as Blood Babies, Baby Farms/Factories, and Child Harvesting. 

 

Due to poverty and unforeseen circumstances, women who are free from bondage procreate in regions such as Africa, Thailand, Guatemala, Egypt, and China. In Thailand, you can see a government sponsored ad that reads, “The Fruit of Thailand More Delicious than Durian is its young women.” Some women are fortunate to be housed in brothels and clinics being paid a small fee for the babies. In Nigeria, the girls and women are paid $1.2k - $1.7k for a female baby. The boys are worth $2k - $2.7K. In many cultures, boys are worth more than girls in the marketplace. They are then mostly sold overseas with falsified documents to couples or single individuals who couldn’t otherwise have babies of their own, and couldn't get approved by their local social system to adopt a baby.

 

On the darker side of this trade, girls and women are forced, beaten, and raped with no choice of their own to breed babies that are sold directly into the Human Sex Trafficking industry. It is mostly men who wish to engage in sexual intercourse or sexual behavior with children and babies.

 

One of the earliest recorded crimes with child trafficking and murder occurred around late-Victorian Era England, 1896. Before orphanages in the US, in England they were called Baby Farms and had similar operational functions. This was an option for unwanted babies. With any business model, those who operate for profit and greed, will exploit the circumstances. In this case, Amelia Dyer, a widow and trained nurse who took in more babies to boost profits, but not enough workers to care for them properly ended up disposing of babies. 

 

Baby farms would offer to take the children off their hands and offer it an alternative future. But instead of providing a safe and loving home, she would instead take the child for a fee if she couldn’t sell them and murder them - either by starving them, drugging them with an opiate-laced cordial known as Mother's Friend, or by strangulation

 

It’s estimated that she took 400 lives in her baby farming business, strangling many of them and disposing of the bodies. One of the babies was discovered in the River Thames. She was convicted of the infant’s murder, and hanged (BBC News, Sarah Lee, June 3, 2017).
