What happens to workers in fake massage parlors after a bust?

In the United States what kind of help do women who work in those fake massage parlors receive after a bust? I have seen articles of them getting busted but I can not find any information on what a victim might experience once they are rescued from these places. If they are not legal residents what happens to them? Are they sheltered and do they receive any therapy or support?

Material for Thesis on Online Child Sex Trafficking

Hello,

I am writing my bachelors thesis on online child sex trafficking in Italy, predominantly "What Role Does Digitalization Play in Enabling Child Sex Trafficking in Italy", I mainly discuss the surface web and dark web and the differences and similarities between the platforms used on them. I was wondering if anyone has the book "Technology in Human Smuggling and Trafficking: Case Studies of Italy and the United Kingdom" by Georgios A. Antonopoulos, Gabriele Baratto, Andrea Di Nicola, Parisa Diba, Elisa Martini, Georgios Papanicolaou, and Fiamma Terenghi. It costs about $50 online, but I don't need the whole book I only need the short section on human trafficking in Italy. I also don't know to what extent it talks about minors as that's my main focus. If anyone has a section of this book or the book or knows where I can find it for free or cheaper I'd greatly appreciate the help! Also if anyone has any other books, journal articles, videos, whatever just any other sources regarding this topic, I'd love to read them! Thank you for the help! :)

How do I cope?

Tw: C/SA, COSCA, , Rape, Sex Trafficking, Drugging, Torture, Ramcoa

I was sex trafficked. They put me in the red room or drove me to people's houses.

In the red room I would be drugged and disoriented unable to get out, people would come in and do whatever they wanted to do with me. It was most commonly sexual however not always.

When I was driven to others homes it would start out nice usually. I would be under the impression I was just being babysat. However it would quickly devolve into rape. There was a frequent "customer" who would pretend to be fatherly towards me and then rape me. He would start so sweet and so loving saying he was going to set me free, then he would rape me.

There were times I was tied to a chair and given what I now realize we're probably hallucinogenics. I was forced to do marijuana, cocaine and random various pills. Anything to keep me week and out of it enough to wear I was maluable. Regardless of what they did they got a discount if they filmed it and gave it to my traffickers. I was often raped to these tapes of my torture.

When I wasn't being trafficked I was being trained and programmed (Ramcoa) to be a system. Different parts were trained to be more submissive and less resilient to the trafficking. Some were programmed to fulfill certain kinks and fetishes.

How do I cope now? I'm out of the environment, stuck with D.I.D and heavily programmed parts and trauma so overwhelming it's immobilizing at times.
