David Solomon shares his personal experiences as a survivor of human trafficking, highlighting the crucial warning signs in hotels and the humanity behind those caught in prostitution and exploitation.

• Hotel trafficking warning signs include guests who don't resemble their companions, children in large groups, frequent room visitors, and cash payments
• Traffickers specifically select non-ground floor rooms to control exits and evade hotel security
• Many prostitutes are trapped by debt, addiction, or coercion rather than choosing the lifestyle
• People in prostitution deserve dignity and compassion as they often have stories of trauma and survival
• David's mother helped numerous women and men escape exploitation through consistent kindness and connections to resources
• Simple awareness and intervention from hotel staff could prevent trafficking situations and save lives
• Even after escaping exploitation, survivors face judgment and stigma that compounds their trauma
• People can make a difference by learning warning signs, showing compassion, and reaching out to those who may be in dangerous situations
