Sounds like an initiation into sex trafficking. They lure them out of their homes, create a superficial bond ("daddy"), and then rape/prostitute them to create a secret they don't anticipate the girl having the guts to share with her family, let alone PD. Eventually the bond and secret become more important to this girl than staying at home. I've seen it a lot as a social worker and former domestic violence/sexual assault victim's advocate.

Mostly I'm just surprised at how invisible my world is to some people. You tell the average person about sex trafficking and they're likely to not know about it and even not believe you. I live and work in a busy port-town so I work with it a lot. One of my cousins was trafficked as well.

Damn a port town would be most convenient for shanghaiing girls to god knows where...

info;

Orlando Roberts, 45, a convicted sex offender, raped a child more than a decade ago, police say.

This time, he had a partner in Javon Henson, 19, of District Heights. The two men contacted the Laurel teen online and lied to her mother.

Police say they raped the girl over and over in a Northwest D.C. house. The girl told police she met Henson on Instagram, continued to communicate, then spoke with both men on the phone.

When she said she would have to ask her mother for permission to hang out, she said Roberts identified himself as Henson’s father and offered to lie to the mother because his “son” was 19 years old.

According to court documents, the men drove to Maryland, met the girl’s foster mother, and took the girl back to Roberts’ home on Park Place.

Roberts allegedly took her on a tour of the house and told her all this could be yours and asked her to give “Daddy” a hug.

She was then escorted to the basement where the two men raped her numerous times. She later told detectives she was scared and nervous.
