Child sex trafficking is a dark, real world for many. Public service announcements show how much money criminals make off of selling kids for sex. One from a non-profit group called "Disturbed to Deliver" says some girls are required to bring their "pimp" $1,000 a night. At $100 a person, that's 10 guys she has to sleep with a night. 3,650 men a year.

"It's more alarming to see it in person than see it in print," said Shelby County District Attorney Amy Weirich.

The California study reported a pimp can receive more than $160,000 from each child he or she forces into prostitution. Weirich says child sex trafficking cases are more common in low-income areas.

"What they're seeing is dads and step dads selling their kids for sex to make extra money," she said. "Since January there have been over a thousand years of sentences against sex offenders and abusers in Shelby County."
