Rosa' s Story

Rosa was 26 years old when she joined a marriage agency.Her future was somber and poor
and all she wanted was a better life.

Rosa joined "Orient Doves" .Soon, a guy from North Carolina responded to her letters.The
guy defined himself as wealthy,good looking,50 years old "young" attorney who lived near
Raleigh.
Rosa by the time,had a tourist visa and things developped quite quickly.

The attorney 'Howard" had phone her to tell her itinerary included paid hotel and ticket
while they were there.
The attorney had bought a ticket from Taca with a lot of stops: San Jose,Costa Rica,
San Salvador,El Salvador ,Guatemala City,Guatemala,Miami,Atlanta and finally the
airport in Raleigh-Durham.

Rosa arrived and she saw a strange looking man,thin,with spectacles,and 2 children.
Once in the S.U.V,the children began to make noises and racist remarks toward Rosa.
Rosa kept quiet due to her limited english skills.She could understand the basics,but
not all.
After 4 hours of travel to "Howard" residence,Rosa was confused.Did she had understood
a paid hotel or his residence?
Anyway,Rosa kept quiet and said nothing.
The journey passed without problems.'Howard" invited her to lunch or to dine.
One morning,Rosa woke up and put her undergarments to wash in the laundry machine.
After 1 hour,she came back to pick up her underwear.
It was gone.
Disappeared.
Rosa,confused,kept quiet maybe thinking ,the underwear was simply lost.

"Howard",then insisted in taking Rosa to a beach house near a military base in the coast.
The beach was beautiful,but water was cold.
Everything was all right until the third day,'Howard" raped Rosa.
Rosa was taken by some beach vacationeers to a local police when they heared the screams and back to her country...without her passport and belongings.
Rosa is currently living in her native country.
