15 Year Old Girls Are Madams
Apparently two 15 year old girls decided that instead of opening a lemonade stand they would start turning out other teens for prostitution. The two teens are from Ottawa, Canada and acted alone without any adult supervision. They called up their friends and told them to come over to their house to party and when they got there they would kidnap them and force them to commit sex acts with people for money. Somehow the two 15 year old teens would drive these other girls all over the city. The girls who were victimized ranged in age from 13-17.
One of the parents of a girl charged in the crime said she had no idea what her daughter was doing and also didn't know what people were being kept against their will in her house. The two teens have been charged with human trafficking and a bunch of other crimes.

How can you not fucking know?
I guess it's easier to ignore the brothel your daughter's running when you get a cut of the profits.
Quite the little entrepreneurs!
Probably more cases of parents so busy trying to be their kid's friends that they stick their heads up their own asses and don't see the shit the kids are doing. This story is so damn disgusting.
I think the parents just saw the girls with the other girls and thought they were friends. No one can really be surprised at what teens can get away with even under strict parents.
How did these kids get the idea to do this?
Talk about kids growing up too fast these days.. wow.
I remember seeing a special report where this was the new thing using teenagers to lure other teenagers to prostitution by use of Craigslist, Facebook, Myspace. This is sad.
I wonder if these other teens were really forced to do this or if that's just what they claim now? If ever there was a time to claim, "they made me do it,' it's when you get caught turning tricks.
If you live in USA you can't have a lemonade stand anymore. The government will shut you down.
Here's a link to the full story:

Well, that is fucked up. I hope the parents of the thirteen year old sue them right out of their house.
A few things are missing from your story. First off, the police said the girls used social media to befriend and lure these other girls. Secondly, the girls were brought to a public housing development - they weren't kept in their own homes.
Wow - Canada is having a fantastic month, crime-wise. Another pox on us.
OMG. What the FUCK is wrong with this WORLD?
I am so glad I do not have kids. This world is too fucked up.
I know legit jobs are scarce but geeeez! Surfer-I feel ya. Pennsylvania is getting a thrashing right now too lol.
Agent**It, please can the hyperbolic political comments. There are many political blogs for that.
Please? It's getting to be every day, and I like coming here specifically because we don't talk politics and all try to be friends. Unless the story's about politics, of course.
Thanks in advance.
Geez, I used to babysit for $1/hr when i was a kid...
You mean I coulda been having Risky Business parties instead?
@Surfer
I thought the same thing when I saw this last night on cp24. What happened to our happy little country??!
So proud! This is my city.
I can't pinpoint the exact neighbourhood but the picture shown is public housing, otherwise known as projects. This is a very poor, bad neighbourhood.
I guarantee you the parents are not involved in the kids' lives. On the news, a neighbour said she sees teenagers coming and going at all hours of the day and night. I'm not excusing anything, I'm just saying these kids are not being parented.
Apparently some girls were drugged before being handed over to men.
But yeah, classy month for Canada.
How you interpret my comment as a 'hyperbolic political comment' is quite a stretch of your wonderful and vast imagination !
Seriously WTF! Those poor kids that ended being victimized by these two psychopaths, I can only hope they are able to get some therapy. What kind of sick mother of ****** would have sex with an underage girl, and give money to her teenage pimp!
Somedays I don't think there is enough soap in the world to clean off these kinds of stories from my soul.
Good Gods! Stuff like this just boggles the mind. A couple of little sociopaths, they are. Poor girls. :( And shame on the asshole men who raped them, knowing they were drugged and under aged, but it didn't matter as long as they got their rocks off. Fuck them. Let's haul them in, too.
@ Sue Ellen - it's going to the dogs.
Add to this the crap going on in Montreal. The protesters tried to ruin the F1, and with the Jazz Fest & Just For Laughs coming up, I can only imagine what they have up their sleeves. I think any sympathy people may have had for them is now gone.
We took a big wrong turn somewhere if this is what our society turns out. I'm glad my kids are grown, but worry about their children and the world they will have to live in.
I'm sure you all get tired of my husband's cop stories, and I try to hold back, I really do, but I have to throw out there that there are lots of kids out there not being parented, like anita so astutely pointed out. He has gone into homes to recover stolen property, and had to cut locks off of teenager's bedroom doors to do so. The parents were like, "well, I don't know what Joey has in there - he keeps the door locked (installed padlocks and the like)".
That train went off the rails sometime back if you're just like, "oh, ho hum, little Joey's locking up his room and won't let me in there". Seriously, how lazy can you get?
You have a sacred obligation as a parent. Kids are dumb. They need you to help them learn right from wrong.
Like I'm sure the girls fathers weren't clients. Oh please. How does a 15 yr old keep a 17 year old against their will? Do these girls have guns or something?
@Paris-I completely agree! You couldnt pay me to have a kid.
Frufra, I love the cop stories!
Crila, I was just thinking the same thing.
My first thought was that those townhouses look just like a bunch in my hometown near Toronto where all the white trash live. Sorry, but what kind of loser has no idea their kid is doing this? Off to check my 14 year old's Facebook/Twitter accounts....
Libby, it's really not hyperbolic political commentary. Just google 'tax lemonade stands' for a variety of stories about (illegal) lemonade stands being shut down across the USA, from MA to TX and all points in between. I've been hearing about this for years, so it's not limited to any one political affiliation.
As for this story--ugh.
Would not be surprised at all if it comes out that adults are behind this.
Looks like it's the University of Illinois!
Seriously, though, I find it very hard to believe that these other girls couldn't get away. If a 15 year-old girl is driving another girl around town against her will, why doesn't the second girl oh, I don't know, get out of the car at a light? Seems pretty simple to me, unless these little madames had guns. I call shenanigans.
Also, Libby, Agent is correct. There has been a rash of city governments shutting down lemonade stands all across the USA over the last few years because they were "operating without a license" or "didn't meet food safety guidelines." That's a fact, not a political statement.
Wow! We need to start teaching kids not to be victims. I was always scared someone would put something in my drink when I went out as a teen. And let someone make me do something I didn't want to do? Forget about it!
We also need kids to understand ASPD is genetic and not to ever breed with those people. They breed like dogs and abandon their kids. No good comes from this.
I have been accused of being a bad parent, my kid was stealing cars I had no clue . He was 16 at the time and would not listen . Being a single parent is hard You work full time and try to raise the kids right but sometimes they hide shit from you so please stop assuming that it's the parents fault when kids do bad things we can't be there 24/7. My son is grown now with a child and he now realizes that he made bad choices when he was young .
OMFG what heck is going on in Canada?
You know it's a sick and sad world when Florida isn't making the crazy headlines.
I can't believe the parents didn't know something was up, I mean how did they not question where the $ was coming from?
@surfer
Nah. I love the Quebecois and their "fight for their right" attitude. We don't have that in Ontario (Toronto, really). Instead of "free hugs" we give "free shrugs".
Their cause isn't really about tuition. It's about the same old song and dance. This is reminiscent of the Quiet Revolution.
I had great parents, but I was super at hiding things I was doing behind their backs. Not even late at night. I got away with a lot from the 3 hours time school let out to when my parents got home from work.
@Lynette, you're half right. These are projects, the residents are all on social assistance. I would guess these girls live in homes that don't include fathers.
As for the Quebec students, ugh. My colleagues and I were watching the news and wondering if we were now the "establishment" since we are sick of their shit and want them to STFU.
Oh, and I am so homesick for Canada. :(
Idc what crazy shit people are doing up there, it will never get as bad as down here.
@anita
Secret time:
Everytime I see a really well dressed/kempt woman on the subway I always wonder if it's you.
See, this is what you get when you have socialized medicine and birth control at reasonable prices (or free).
Reminds me of the movie The Babysitters. Teenage girls pimping out other teenage girls. Very weird movie, hubby picked it out though.
@Sue Ellen, if you're serious, I love you!!!! But I'm in Ottawa where 15 year old girls are pimps.
@anita_mark
Please do not assume that if a child grows without a father he/she ends up like these kids.
I have a bunch of friends with both parents who turned out pretty bad for quite a number of reasons as well as friends with a single parent who are just normal and balanced adults.
How can we be surprised?!?!?!?!?!? Kids know about sex tapes, they know that how kim kardashian got her start. Paris hilton. Lindsay lohan. Tara reid. Charlie Sheen. Eddie murphy. Hugh grant. What other names have been connected to the oldest profession. They were stupid becuz young and old girls in the u.s. Will do that willingly. Money and sex as marketing campaigns for the last idk forever! Sex sells! Well now so does your daughter.
Hahaha. I am serious! I saw a lady last week, and I was convinced it was you. For some reason I thought you lived here, in the city.
Oh well.
Re the students in Montreal. Hi everyone. I live here in Montreal and can only say my respect for the protesters, no longer just students btw, grows every day by leaps and bounds. They are doing the dirty work for the rest of us. Go red squares go!!
My friends daughter was 8 or 9 when she started rolling down the waist band of her shorts and cocking her little hip. Im sure she had no clue why for several more years. There was no internet then either. Imagine how much more access to sex kids have now.
So are we saying that if we let the kids have lemonade stands they won't resort to prostitution? Just trying to follow the point of the lemonade story in this string. <3
Exactly what I was thinking!!!! Where on earth did the learn how to pimp ??? Not to mention thinking its a good idea! !! Unbelievable!!!!!! Same thing shld happen to them- wait, they going to jail, its covered.

And who said Ottawa was a boring government town ha ha
Agree with @fedwaymom, it's NOT always the parents neglect that causes this. I was raised in an upper middle class family, and have one younger brother. My mom is literally AWESOME...my "dad" (stepdad who adopted us when we were young), not so much. But, he wasn't horrible. They were involved, supportive, loving, all the good stuff.
My brother developed a wicked prescription drug addiction while he was living in Tallahassee for school (which he'd dropped out of, without telling my parents). Everything came to light after he was arrested for drug trafficking (which my parents paid $5k to make disappear). He moves home, starts fresh, then one day my mom notices some of my grandmother's jewelry missing (which was well hidden). Long story short, because of the addiction, he had started stealing and pawning things of my mom's. Very senitmental things, and he knew what they were. And I truly believe there was NOTHING my mom could have done to stop this...it was his choice.
Fast forward four years: he's clean, sober, and a Senior Line Medic with the Army. Finished his first deployment to Turkey. Just got married to the most awesome girl. Living in Bavaria. And, refuses to take any opiates/narcotics (it's in his med paperwork). So, change is also possible.
/endrant.
There was a kid in my neck of the woods, Northern California, who stole Guy Fari's (food network) Ferrari or Lamborghini. I can't remember which one it was.
The kid literally broke into the dealership and stole it! How the hell do you steal a yellow half million dollar car with no one noticing? The kid kept the car in a storage unit with his other "hot" stuff, and the parents were "shocked." This was an affluent kid from Marin running a burglary ring by himself!
After that story, I'm not surprised by anything anymore. Besides, with stuff like Toddlers & Tiaras can we really be too surprised?
Are the johns going to get prosecuted for this? They create the demand.
What is wrong with people?
I wonder if the clients were teenage boys paying to "get lucky" (which is bad enough), or adult men paying to have sex with young teenage girls. Sick Sick Sick. Disgusting.
Oh L, please don't take it that way. My comment was in response to someone saying the girls were probably giving the girls to their fathers and my reasoning is that the fathers probably aren't around. I didn't mean to sound like I was saying single family kids grow up bad.
And yes, these are bad areas with bad people but then there are the good people, the single mothers trying to make a better life for their kids and the immigrant families who are here to start a new life in a safer, freer country.
@anita_mark - understood. ok - peace :)
I agree and salute them!
Horrendous little heathens, that's for sure. And in the parents defense, who the f**k expects that from your kids??? I don't know all the details, I've read a bit about this, but seriously, who expects to even think that your 15 yr old daughter's a pimp?
again, Jesus, take the wheel, my God. 15 yr old pimps. Lord help us/
@ Anita - I spent my high school years in Ottawa. Every time I visit family who are still there, I am shocked by how little and how much Ottawa has changed. Does that make sense?
Sue Ellen, I'm the one on the Toronto subways who quietly admonishes idiots who have their feet on seats. I'm somewhat surprised I have not been stabbed or shot (yet).
Vicki, if you love my cop stories, then that's good enough for me - watch out, I've got a million of 'em :-).
Chilie...I am glad I am not the only one that does that. I also sit on peoples bags when the subway is crowded and they are obliviously taking up two seats!
Frufra...loving the cop stories here too!
