This film essentially begins with a woman by the name of "Annalise O'Neil" (Emily Rose) hosting a party at her home to celebrate her recent appointment as a judge. It's during that time that she and her spoiled teenage daughter Carly O'Neil" (Emily Tennant) get into an argument which results in Carly running away from home several minutes later. A couple of hours later, while wandering alone on the street at night, Carly is kidnapped by a sex-trafficking ring and subsequently held in a confined area with other young girls to be auctioned off to on-line buyers in the very near future. Quite naturally, not knowing where her daughter is and having become increasingly concerned about her safety, Annalise immediately contacts the local police only to discover that the detective in charge of the case named "Derek Sutton" (Chris Calhoun) adamantly refuses to divulge any information about the case due to concerns that it might compromise his long-running investigation into a specific sex-trafficking operation. Because of that, Annalise then turns to a local halfway house for troubled teens run by a man named "Antonio Culpo" (John Gallant) who, unlike Detective Sutton, promises to keep her informed on any information he receives. What Annalise doesn't realize, however, is that one of these men is actually involved in this sex-trafficking ring and whatever information she uncovers as a judge to further the sale of her daughter. Now, rather than reveal any more, I will just say that this movie started off relatively well but became somewhat unrealistic halfway through the film. That being said, while it certainly wasn't a great film by any means, it wasn't terribly bad either and for that reason I have rated it accordingly. Slightly below average.
