Note: A continuation of "Space Factory" was going to post today, but I've supplanted it for something more important
(cont'd from Wednesday's post)
Both Jim Caviezel and Tim Ballard, the real hero he plays in "Sound of Freedom," are interviewed here.
In his previous job as a Homeland Security agent, Tim discovered much more than he wanted to know about the abuse and sale of children. This movie is about his first mission to save children from sex trafficking in Colombia.
He explains exactly how the industry is managed across our southern border:
“Why is a three-year-old showing up at the border?” he asked. “Well, I can tell you why, because they show up with a name. The name of the sponsor that they’re given by the trafficker.”
The Department of Health and Human Services “gets the kids, and they by law have to call the number. ‘Hi, we have Jose Gonzalez, Mr. George Smith.’ ‘Yeah, yeah, that’s my kid. Whatever.’ ‘OK.’ They used to actually fly down to have to pick the kid up. Not anymore.”
“Our taxpayer dollars will then send the kid by plane or bus to this George, the sponsor, no background check, no DNA, nothing. And they deliver the kids,” Ballard noted.
