Mother's Pain in Sex Trafficking Plea Deal.

TL;DR Summary
A mother's daughter was sex trafficked by two men who were charged but ultimately received a plea deal of five years probation, causing the mother to feel betrayed by the criminal justice system. The case was delayed for years due to dysfunction at the Texas Attorney General's office, which has been under scrutiny for its handling of trafficking cases. The mother gave a powerful victim impact statement in court, but ultimately felt abandoned by the prosecutors, judge, and even her family and God. She is now in therapy and seeking closure through a civil lawsuit.
