Q: Is it legal for the FBI, US Gov officials and police to protect men who trafficked, kidnapped and sexually assaulted me.
Please assist me with this crisis.
My tyrannical ex-boyfriend and his associates were deported and sanctioned against by U.S Gov. for war crimes and crimes against humanity, totally unrelated to me.
They have since carried out cyberattacks, ordered international criminal networks that specialize in smuggling arms, drugs and human trafficking to target Americans, and recently threatened to attack cell towers, power grids, water and medical supplies.
My ex stalked and threatened me, my family, friends and livelihoods for my repeated refusals to cooperate with him.
I reported the situation to the FBI.
I understand that the FBI notified my ex’s network of my reports causing severe retaliations.
I was trafficked, kidnapped, tortured and raped in USA.
My victims advocate’s sons and my mother were killed.
My ex and the traffickers boast about being protected by the FBI and U.S. Gov. officials due to bribes and extortion.
A:
I’m really sorry to hear about what you’re going through. No, it is not legal for the FBI, U.S. Government officials, or police to protect anyone involved in trafficking, kidnapping, or sexual assault. Law enforcement agencies are supposed to protect you and investigate these crimes, not aid or shield perpetrators.
If you believe that certain officials are not acting appropriately or are involved in protecting your abusers, you have the right to report this to higher authorities. Consider contacting an attorney or an organization that handles government corruption and abuse of power cases.
Your safety is the priority, so it may also be helpful to explore options for victim protection services, like safe housing and emergency support. Stay persistent in seeking help, and don’t give up. There are people and organizations that can stand with you against this.
