System Failure: Frank Garrison

By the time he was 18 years old, Frank Garrison had dedicated his life to violent crime. His MO involved breaking into women's unoccupied cars, masked and wielding a knife, and lying in wait. One of his arrests inspired a scene in Dobbs' second novel VILE. In this episode, the arresting officer shares the facts that inspired the fiction, and Dobbs shares how that arrest impacted Garrison's would-be victim. Sadly, despite continued efforts by the officer and many others, the system released Garrison to do it again. Even after receiving a life sentence, Garrison walks among us.

Hard Truths about Trafficking: Pt. 2 (IMBs)

In Part 2 of our Sex Trafficking Series, Joe Scaramucci from Skull Games shows us live how to identify the illegal enterprises of illicit massage business in your neighborhood. It's easier than you might think. Scaramucci also explains how these illegal operations should be investigated and how often law enforcement agencies get it wrong – so wrong they might make headlines, as did some detectives at the Lewisville Police Department. Finally, he teaches us how to vet anti-trafficking organizations and determine which are legit and which are doing more harm than good.
