Meet Girl who was assaulted '43,000 times' at 16

What a world! the young lady is called Karla Jacinto, 24, and says she was forced to sleep with at least 30 men a day over four years as a young teenager but now travels world helping other victims of sexual slavery.

Karla Jacinto, from Mexico, estimates she was forced to sleep with at least 30 men a day over four years as a young teenager.She says according to UK mirror online that she was first targeted at the age of 12 by a trafficker who prized her away from her dysfunctional family with gifts and money.
Karla was eventually taken to Guadalajara, one of Mexico's biggest cities, and forced to work as a prostitute.

She was eventually rescued in 2008 as part of an anti-trafficking operation in Mexico City.
Now aged 24 - after years spent recovering from the deep emotional wounds and harrowing memories of sexual abuse - she has become a human rights activist.
Karla now travels the world giving help and advice to other victims of sexual slavery - even meeting Pope Francis at the Vatican to discuss the issue.
She says she is looking to raise awareness of Mexico's human trafficking crisis - with an estimated 20,000 women believed to fall victim every year, according to International Organisation for Migration.
Uk Mirror online reports that Karla is now in fact "not just surviving, she's thriving" as a human rights activist speaking out against modern-day slavery.
As she showed the reporter photos of her age 12 explained: "They would beat me with sticks, they would beat me with cables, they would beat me with chains.
"They forced me into prostitution at age 12."
"There were people who would laugh at me because I was crying. I had to close my eyes so I wouldn't see what they were doing to me."
Karla claims that some of her attackers were "uniformed police officers" - as well as judges, priests and pastors.
"I thought they were disgusting," she said.
"They knew we were minors - we were not even developed. We had sad faces.
"Nowadays people are listening to me."
