Virginia still a slave state

By Donald Sensing

There is still slavery in Virginia, it seems.

McLEAN, Va. (CBSDC) — A quiet, upscale neighborhood in McLean, Va. is stunned to learn that federal authorities are investigating a home owned by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia for possible human trafficking violations.
Two women were rescued from the home, located in the 6000 block of Orris Street, during a raid by local police and federal agents Tuesday afternoon.
It is believed the women are from the Philippines and work at the Saudi Embassy in Washington.
There is almost certainly a lot more of this going on in similar households that has not been uncovered.
