Ohio
A new lawsuit aims to make a statement in the sex trafficking case that stretched from Eastern Europe to Detroit.
The case involved several women brought from the Ukraine to Detroit. The woman worked as dancers at the former Cheetah's Strip Club on Eight Mile.
Two young women from the Ukraine, who spoke no English, answered ads for waitress jobs and wound up in Detroit at the strip club.
The woman where forced to work 12 hours a days, six days a week. They were forced to hand over all of their identification papers and money to their employers whom the suit says beat and raped the woman. The two women were held captive inside a suburban home and watched closely.
This went on for nine months back in 2005. One of the women became suicidal and yet she was still forced to keep on dancing.
Arrests have already been made in the case.
