If you were see something bad about to happen or happening, would you have the strength to stop it? Even if you had some doubts about what was going on, but you had that funny feeling in the pit of your stomach, would you act on your gut feeling?
This one amazing person, a flight attendant exactly did that! The person she saved, was a teenage girl, who was being sex trafficked!
A well dressed older guy and a young girl were together, the girl looked like she had not been well cared for, they were on the plane together.
The flight attendant, Shelia Fredrick had a feeling that something was not right about them, they seemed like a really odd pair…
They were definitely traveling together but apart from that they didn’t belong together at all, not at all natural, the way they interacted was all wrong!
Frederick said:
“He was well dressed, that’s what kind of got me because why is he well dressed, and she is looking disheveled and out of sorts.”
She tried to talk to them both, kind of like scratching an itch, you feel a compulsion to explore your instinct, but even more oddly the guy closed down the conversation as quickly as possible.
The girl gave off a vibe that she was scared of the well-dressed man, she felt she had to be really careful how she handled the situation, without any doubts there!
She wrote a note in the bathroom then secretly signaled for the girl to use the bathroom, what good thinking on her part!
Frederick said:
“She wrote on the note she needed help.”
The amazing attendant then quickly alerted the piolet who then contacted the authorities at the airport and by the time the flight had touched down the police were there waiting for them.
The well-dressed guy was taken into custody and the girl was returned with her family, she was relieved and thankful, had that flight attendant not intervened she would have been gone, another sex trade worker or even worse on the streets as a prostitute forced to sell herself.
Right now flight attendants are being trained to look for things that are out of place like this flight attendant did, if more staff recognized children in trouble then more could be saved!
Frederick really has a genuine belief that it is training like this that will really make a huge difference to children’s lives for the better and be another thorn in the side for child sex traffickers!
She said:
“I’ve been a flight attendant for 10 years and it’s like I am going all the way back to when I was in training and I was like I could have seen these young girls and young boys and didn’t even know.”
Frederick has stayed in contact with the girl, she put her phone number on the original note too, the girl memorized it! They quite often talk and Frederick also found out that the girl was doing really well at college!
