The bodies of ten young women have been found in an investigation into a serial killer operating in Long Island. Four of the victims have been identified as prostitutes. Police have not identified the other victims. For more about the case we have Edward Conlon, detective for the NYPD and author of “Red on Red: A Novel.” 

Rachel Lloyd talks about founding the nonprofit organization GEMS (Girls Educational and Mentoring Services), which helps teenage girls who’ve worked in the sex industry, and talks about her mission to help sexually exploited girls. In her memoir Girls Like Us she reveals the dark parts of her own past and explains the factors—including addiction, abuse, and poverty—that make young women vulnerable to sexual exploitation.
