Investigation

It is from there that the investigation led by prosecutor Chiara Maina begins. The army places cameras to monitor the apartments. And they discover the comings and goings. The exploited women were drug addicts who were pressured into offering sexual services for prices ranging from 20 to 50 euros. But they only received crack in exchange. “I posted ads on a dating site and waited for clients in Via Urbino. It turns out that I was locked in this apartment for four days, I wasn't even allowed to wash between one appointment and the next. To leave, I had to escape in secret,” one of the young girls told investigators.
Monique
Transgender Monique, 53, was in charge. While there were at least a dozen women offering services in exchange for drugs. She also stayed smoking with them. “The girls going through withdrawal were willing to do anything to get a solution. Even accepting the equivalent of around ten euros.” Among them are very young girls and mothers. Who left their children with the babysitter in the evening to go into prostitution. Monique was sentenced to two years and eight months in prison and a fine of three thousand euros for exploitation of prostitution. Two drug traffickers were sentenced to terms of more than a year.
