"We have a variety of different trafficking, we have people brought in to work in motels, hotels, and golf courses," said Pino.
"Girls brought in and forced into the sex trade that are often times raped 20-30 times a night at $20 to $30 dollars a trick."
A Florida couple, Sophia Manuel and Alfonso Baldonado, were sentenced to prison in 2010 after pleading guilty in a case involving workers herded together in a Boca Raton townhome.
"We had 40 Filipino workers brought into the U.S. by a staffing agency. They worked at various country clubs around Palm Beach County and these people were literally hidden in plain sight," said Pino.
