Six Locations in Schaumburg, Illinois Where Human Trafficking Is (or May Be) Occurring

     I wrote the following after discovering that sex trafficking and prostitution busts have occurred at hotels in Schaumburg, Illinois, and after discovering that Schaumburg hotels, and dancing and modeling studios, are hosting "dance" events which sexualize children.

     These "dancing and modeling studios" may not be overt schemes to traffic children, but it's possible that they are defrauding the children's parents for money, or even scamming them for cheap photographs and videos of their children, which the operators of the dance studios can sell. An investigation is needed.

     Most of these locations are very close to one another, as well as to a local high school. They are also close to o'Hare International Airport, another major human and sex trafficking hub.
     Parents in the Schaumburg area, and parents of students at Rolling Meadows High School, should be cautioned about what is happening in their community, in regards to the information below.

1. Model Act Studios – Schaumburg

6. Renaissance Schaumburg Convention Center

     - Hosts Tremaine dance studios conventions, including the one in winter 2019.
          Source: http://www.tremainedance.com/winter-2021-22/chicago-il/

     - Model Act Studios, and Tremaine dance studios, teach young girls sexually charged dance moves, which they tell the girls are simply "rhythmic gymnastics". The girls are told to be "sassy" while they dance, which is being used as a replacement term for "sexy”. This is done to avoid all chances that the girls will recognize that they are being exploited and objectified by their parents and dancing and modeling instructors.
