OMG! 16-year-old pimps!

Jazmine Finley and Tatiana Tye are alleged teen pimps from Arizona. The girls, both 16 years old, are being accused of running a prostitution ring, which consisted of 5-7 girls that were recruited from Finely and Tye’s high school. It has been reported that the recruited girls were in the age range of 14-17 years old. Finely and Tye are also being accused of prostituting as well. The 16-year-old alleged pimps are being tried as adults, and will have their case heard before a grand jury. The charges range from child prostitution to pandering. (Below left Finely, right Tye)

Now that things have hit fan, Tye has begun to blame Finely for introducing her to prostitution. Tye gives the impression that the Jazmine is the ringleader in this operation, and she simply followed. Both girls were accused of recruiting girls and telling them to join with them because they would be able to make lots of money and would not have to worry about being beaten up, like a male pimp would do them. Seems to me like Tye is looking for a way to shift blame. I mean looking at the two of these girls, both of them look like they are bullies. Besides, would Tye have made the statement if she wasn’t caught too? I think not. I don’t agree that these two ladies should be tried as adults; however, I do feel that some type of punishment needs to be enforced, so that more of this does not continue.

OK, here is my issue...what are we teaching our young women? Seems to me like too many of our teenage sisters are lost and need some real women to start stepping up and teaching them how to love themselves. These young sisters envy money, expensive cars, expensive clothes, and anything else that shows that “baller” lifestyle. Many of them can’t get the things they want from their parents, so they learn ways to sell their bodies, so that they can get what they desire. Money and sex is so gratified on the television, radio, the Internet and everywhere else, that it seems like the way of life to them. Teenagers and many other younger children really believe that if you don’t have money, you are nobody. If there is no one to teach them that most of what they see on TV. is perception, then how would the children be able to distinguish reality from fiction? This perception derives from what they are or not being taught at home. We really need to save our children and not give up on them. Just because it’s not your child now, it may be your child later, or someone else you love…we have to make a change, so that our children stand a chance in this world!
