Alabama Police Arrest Seven in Horrifying Child Trafficking Ring

Alabama police have arrested seven individuals in connection with a grotesque child trafficking and abuse ring. At least ten children, aged 2 to 15, were reportedly locked in a storm bunker and subjected to sexual torture and exploitation by their parents over three years. The adults allegedly used animal shock collars, drugs, and other methods to torment the children.
Investigators believe there may be additional victims and perpetrators tied to the case. The Bibb County Sheriff’s Office has identified some suspects as relatives, while others are acquaintances or individuals who paid to abuse the children. Among the arrested is migrant worker Andres Trejo-Velazquez.
The sheriff’s office has called for the public to submit any additional information. This case highlights the ongoing threat of exploitation and abuse, even within seemingly secure environments. Authorities are continuing their investigation, with more arrests expected in the coming days.
