San Diego District Attorney Summer Stephan joins The Glamorous Grind for a chilling, eye-opening look into the hidden world of human trafficking—and how it’s happening right in our own neighborhoods.

With over 35 years of experience on the front lines of justice, DA Stephan shares how a childhood moment sparked her lifelong mission to protect the vulnerable. From teens recruited on Instagram to trafficking operations that thrive without a single bruise, this episode is packed with truth, tools, and action.

💥 Human trafficking is the second largest criminal industry in the world—generating $810M in San Diego County alone.

In this episode, you’ll learn:
• How traffickers use psychological control instead of physical chains
• Why 80% of victims in San Diego are local teens, not foreign imports
• How social media apps like Snapchat & Instagram are weaponized
• The common red flags parents, teachers, and friends should watch for
• How One Safe Place is helping survivors rebuild their lives
• Why no family—regardless of wealth, education, or awareness—is immune
• What the DOJ is doing, and how California law is catching up
• How you can help: National Human Trafficking Hotline → 888-373-7888
