The 18-year old prostitute was a victim of violence, but she refused to give in.

The 18-year old woman was a prostitute and had been humiliated by being captured, beaten and violated. She had no clothes on, her lips were swollen, her eyes were bloodshot and she couldn't hold back tears. Her face was dirty and covered in dirt from hours of sitting in the cold. Her hair was messy and tumbling down around her body as if she had just rolled out from under the bed. She looked like a mess but still clung to life for survival. As she sat there vulnerable and exposed, her hair fell down covering half of her face with partial exposure to the elements. There was fear all around, but some people tried to stand up for themselves. They tried to look strong despite their vulnerability.
