An extended version of the interview that aired on Think Out Loud, March 12. Rachel Hestmark was trafficked in 1995, when she was 19. She is now married, with two children and runs her own small business called Hestmark Designs. She spoke with senior producer Allison Frost as part of the show's Represented show exploring how to curb trafficking in the state.

Rachel met two girls her own age one summer after high school through a friend. They soon decided to go to southern California for a few weeks to make some fast money at strip clubs. She soon learned it had been a mistake to trust these new friends.
