Is there any documented case of some middle class woman, tourist or not, getting abducted and forced into prostitution or sex slavery? Basically, has any part of the plot of Taken ever happened?

Not talking about third world slaves in Dubai. Not talking about Slavic victims of passport abuse. Or ISIS abducting aid workers. Or Dubai yacht girls. Or white slavers in the Ottoman empire. Or pimps brainwashing runaways. Or depraved psychopaths abducting joggers. Or clueless Eat Pray Lovers getting raped by retarded Indians.

I hear this all the time like it's a thing. For example I just read someone on X that asserted we can't hang pimps and prostitutes because some of them might be kidnapped women. But I've never read a real case with names and dates. It begs the question, did this ever happen or is it one of those folk tales that gets swept along with the human trafficking cause?

The closest thing I've heard of is Pakistani Britain where 12-year old girls were getting snatched off the street, but even then the ones that were turned out seem to be more victims of pimps.

edit: found what looks like an example of this happening. 15-year old girl abducted from a basketball game and found in a prostitution ring in another state. The cops mostly ignored this because the girl had run away from home before.

I kind of wonder if this is a pure stranger danger story considering the history of running away, the admitted marijuana addiction, and wandering off to a parking garage with a pretty obvious gangbanger, but it looks like that's what it is.

edit 2: OK, I have more doubts now. "They plied me with marijuana and I blacked out" uh... I don't think marijuana does that. Then after the failed police raid she wanders around and somehow falls in with another guy who rapes her as well. Really?

Am a little confused that Natalie said she had "a problem with marijuana and vaping and left to go find someone at the coliseum to smoke with." I cannot see how either of these properties would drive a person to abandon an event they attended with family, left the coliseum even, just to go vape with a stranger. I suspect she was doing something harder if addiction is why she left. Marijuana is not addictive (only habit forming) and vaping could have been done in the coliseum if they were sly about it.

No one lured Natalee, she approached him so she could get high. The story she told before was different, she even admitted that she was thinking about calling her parents.

Or she knew the guy she walked out with. Sounds like a loverboy scenario.
