>>THOSE WHO ARE HERE WITHOUT CITIZENSHIP STATUS ARE THOSE
PAINTED AS CRIMINALS OR BAD GUYS.
A RECENT INVESTIGATIVE
REPORT BY THE AP INDICATES THERE IS A CHURCH IN NORTH CAROLINA
THAT PURPOSELY TRAFFICS HUMANS FROM BRAZIL WITH THE INTENT OF
USING THEM AS SLAVES.
THIS IS THE WORLD OF FAITH FELLOWSHIP.
ACCORDING TO DOZENS OF PEOPLE THE AP SPOKE TO SHE HAS DONE
TERRIBLE THINGS AND HAS THREATENED INDIVIDUALS THAT SAID
THEY WOULD SPEAK OUT.
THE
MEN AND YOUNG BOYS WHO WERE BROUGHT
FROM BRAZIL HAD TO DO TOUGH LABOR, CONSTRUCTION JOBS, WORK
ON THE HOMES OF SOME OF THE OFFICIALS THAT WORKED FOR THE
CHURCH.
THE YOUNG GIRLS WERE FORCED TO WORK HOURS ON END
TAKING CARE OF CHILDREN, BABYSITTING, THINGS LIKE THAT.
THIS WAS SOMETHING THAT WAS TIPPED OFF TO POLICE YEARS AGO.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED OR WHETHER THERE WAS AN
INVESTIGATION.
BUT NOTHING WAS REALLY DONE.
ALSO THE BEAT UP
ANYONE WHO TRIES TO RAISE CONCERNS OR SPEAK OUT ABOUT THE
TREATMENT THEY ARE FACING.
>> THE MOST DEFINITELY WAS IN RESPONSE TO WHETHER THEY WERE
BEATEN.
LET'S REVIEW THIS.
THEY CAPTURE YOU AND YOU CAN GO
ANYWHERE.
IN RELATION TO THE R. KELLY STORY I SAID DON'T LET
ANYONE TAKE YOUR PHONE OR PASSPORT.
WHAT THEY ARE TRYING
TO DO IS CONTROL YOU.
AND R KELLY'S CASE IT WAS THE PHONES
TAUGHT IN THIS CASE IT WAS THE PASSPORTS.
A LOT OF THEM DIDN'T
EVEN SPEAK ENGLISH.
THEY MADE THEM WORK FOR 15 HOUR DAYS AS
YOUNG AS 12.
WHEN YOU INVOLVE BEATINGS, THAT IS THE DEFINITION
OF SLAVE LABOR.
IT IS DONE UNDER THE GUISE OF THE CHURCH.
>>IT GETS SO MUCH WORSE.
THEY WERE ARRANGED MARRIAGES.
I WANT
TO GIVE YOU AS MANY DETAILS BUT I HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU READ THE
REPORT.
WE WILL HAVE A LINK IN THE DESCRIPTION BOX BELOW.
WHAT
ARE SOME OF THE THINGS THEY GOT BEATEN FOR?
HERE IS AN EXAMPLE.
THEY WOULD LITERALLY BE THESE VICTIMS UP TO GET THE DEVIL OUT
OF THEM.
>>THAT THAT THEY THOUGHT HE WAS HAVING AN IMPURE DREAM.
HOW DO YOU KNOW WHAT KIND OF DREAM HE IS HAVING?
>>THIS IS INSANE.
THEY WERE LIVING IN UNSAFE CONDITIONS.
DOZENS OF PEOPLE CRAMMED INTO A BASEMENT.
AND THEY WERE TOLD ALL
SORTS OF PROMISES BEFORE COMING TO THE US.
BUT THEN THEY WOULD
OVERWORK THESE KIDS TO THE POINT THAT THEY COULD NOT GO TO
STUDY OR SCHOOL AT ALL.
>>IN THE OLD DAYS WE WERE TOLD TO RESPECT AUTHORITY.
NOW IT IS
NOT RIGHT TO GO IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION, BUT WE HAVE LEARNED
THAT WE HAVE TO BE MORE CAREFUL.
SOME PEOPLE USE THEIR POSITION
OF POWER TO OPPRESS OTHERS.
HOW MANY STORIES YOU HAVE TO SEE
BEFORE YOU GET THAT THROUGH YOUR HEAD.
THAT DOESN'T MEAN YOU
SHOULD NOT TRUST ANY CHURCH.
THERE ARE LOTS OF WONDERFUL
ORGANIZATIONS OUT THERE.
BUT YOU SAY WAIT A MINUTE, I HAVE FAITH.
WELL, THESE KIDS HAD FAITH.
YOU CANNOT HAVE FAITH WITHOUT REASON
BECAUSE HOW ELSE WOULD YOU KNOW WHAT TO PUT YOUR FAITH IN?
WHEN
YOU ARE ASSESSING SOMETHING, JUST BECAUSE THEY ARE A
RELIGIOUS ORGANIZATION DOESN'T MEAN THEY ARE EXEMPT FROM
REASON.
YES, I HAVE BAD NEWS FOR YOU.
MANY RELIGIOUS
ORGANIZATIONS DO THE MOST HORRIFIC THINGS.
WHY?
WHY DO THE
FOOT FETISH GUYS BECOME SHOE SALESMAN?
WHY DO CHILD MOLESTERS
BECOME COACHES OR PRIESTS?
BECAUSE THEY HAVE MARKS THEY
CONSIDER TO BE EASY MARKS.
THEY THINK KIDS ñ THEIR PARENTS TRUST
THEM WITH ME, AND THEY TOLD THEM TO PUT THEIR COMPLETE TRUST IN
ME.
AT CHURCH WHAT ARE YOU TOLD ALL THE TIME?
DON'T QUESTION.
WHAT WAS THE FORBIDDEN FRUIT THEY ATE IN GENESIS?
THEY ATE
FROM THE TREE OF KNOWLEDGE.
THAT IS WHAT GOT THEM KICKED OUT OF
EDEN.
THEY TOLD HIM NOT TO THINK FOR THEMSELVES, THIS IS THE
DOGMA OF THE BOOK, HAVE FAITH IN IT, AND TRUST THEM 100%.
WHEN
YOU DO THAT THIS RESULTS
IS GUARANTEED.
>> THESE KIDS WERE NOT ABLE TO COMMUNICATE WITH THEIR PARENTS.
SOME OF THE MEN THAT WERE BROUGHT FROM BRAZIL.
IT IS JUST
INSANE.
>> CHURCHES GET A FREE RIDE IN 1000 DIFFERENT WAYS.
ALL
RELIGIONS DO IT.
LOOK AT WHAT THE TALIBAN DOES TO YOUNG BOYS.
WHAT HAPPENS IN HINDUISM AND JUDAISM.
IN HEAVILY CHRISTIAN
NORTH CAROLINA, DO YOU REALLY WANT TO GO AFTER A CHURCH?
LET
THEM KEEP DOING WHATEVER THEY ARE DOING EVEN THOUGH IT IS
HORRIFIC.
THANK YOU ASSOCIATED PRESS, THAT IS GREAT JOURNALISM.
THANK YOU FOR EXPOSING THIS TO PUT AN END
TO IT.
