Exploitative Labor: Men Enslave Student in St. Charles County

Three men in St. Charles County, Missouri, have been charged with human trafficking, kidnapping, and assault after trapping a 20-year-old Indian student in multiple homes for several months. The student was forced to do chores, work, and endure severe beatings, including being locked in a basement, sleeping on an unfinished floor, and scavenging for food in dumpsters. The men used various objects, such as electrical wire and metal rods, to beat the student. The student was rescued after police received a tip and found him heavily scarred and bruised. The men, including the ringleader Venkatesh R. Sattaru, are being held without bond.

St. Louis City Mayor Tishaura Jones expressed excitement for Latino migrants to come to St. Louis, despite a resolution introduced by St. Charles County to block migrants from moving to the region. The resolution, which was tabled, has been criticized as racist by the Hispanic Leaders Group of St. Louis. Mayor Jones suggested that if St. Charles County does not want to welcome the migrants, they can come to St. Louis instead. St. Charles County Executive Steve Ehlmann disagreed with the resolution and stated that he was not consulted about it.
