About Christine Buckley

Each year, an estimated 800,00 to 900,000 people are recruited and transported across international borders -- through the use of deception, threats or violence -- into various forms of forced labor and sexual exploitation. Aaron Cohen has made it his personal mission to end the alarmingly prevalent and lucrative global trade of human trafficking. For the last nine years, Cohen has become a slave hunter -- working to find and free human beings from bondage. Christine Buckley helped this rocker-turned-antislavery activist reveal the fast-paced, timely, inpsiring and unforgettable story of a real life Slave Hunter.
