Look, here are the facts:
The CDC says 1 in 4 girls will be sexually abused before they turn 18:

The UN thinks that up to 50% of women who are trafficked face sexual exploitation. UN 2020 Report on Human Trafficking

CBS news reported that 130,000 unaccompanied minors were taken into custody at the border in 2022 and many faced sexual abuse:

Of that number Amnesty International estimates 60% of the girls were sexually assaulted along the way.

Splinter news disagrees. They think the real number is 80% of women and girls crossing are raped along the way:

The NYT says that thousands of those unaccompanied minors were sexually assaulted in US detention centers alone and that the cartels are abusing other en route to the US.

Guardian: The heart of the Mexican Sex Slave Trade

The national center for missing and exploited children reported 19,000 cases of sexual abuse against children in the US in 2022.
