Kidnapped from her hardscrabble hometown in central Mexico and forced into the sex trade at age 19, she escaped her pimp-captor in 2011 and has received counseling, legal aid and health care from the group ever since. Wanting to protect her family, Sandra declined to provide her last name.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Here she tells her story<\/em>:<\/p>\n<p><em>On a good day, I\u2019d only have to sleep with 30 men.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>I always wore a tight, short skirt and stilettos. Alfredo was my \u201cpadrote\u201d (pimp), and he arranged for different drivers to take me through Corona, Jackson Heights and sometimes Brooklyn. I would nod off in the car. I had a different driver every week.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>On a bad day, when we left New York and went to Long Island or Connecticut, I couldn\u2019t rest. One day, over the span of 16 consecutive hours in Boston, there were 80 men.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Alfredo beat me, refused to give me food or even water. The drivers he worked with advertised women on a \u201cchica card\u201d that they handed out to potential clients as they stumbled out of cheap nightclubs in Queens and Brooklyn.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>I was also forced to hand out the cards to potential customers. Sometimes the cards had pictures of nude women. Other times they advertised <strong>children\u2019s birthday parties<\/strong>. Everyone knew what the cards really meant; that the number on the back was to arrange deliveries of women. &#8211; (<\/em>bold emphasis added)<em><br \/>\n<\/em><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10926910\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a class=\"modal-trigger\">Modal Trigger<\/a><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-10926910\" src=\"https:\/\/thenypost.files.wordpress.com\/2017\/05\/scan161_143399597ed.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=200&amp;strip=all\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 320px) 100vw, 320px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thenypost.files.wordpress.com\/2017\/05\/scan161_143399597ed.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=320 320w, https:\/\/thenypost.files.wordpress.com\/2017\/05\/scan161_143399597ed.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=640 640w, https:\/\/thenypost.files.wordpress.com\/2017\/05\/scan161_143399597ed.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=100 100w, https:\/\/thenypost.files.wordpress.com\/2017\/05\/scan161_143399597ed.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=200 200w\" alt=\"\" width=\"320\" height=\"480\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Pimps would hand out \u201cchica cards\u201d with phone numbers to call for prostitute delivery.
