But these cartels have no love for anyone, only for themselves and their money. They are treating young teenage girls with no respect and no sort of compassion what so ever. They are being used, abused, beaten and killed.
The Mexican drug cartels have found a niche for huge profits in the trafficking of women and girls for purposes of sexual exploitation and pornography.
