She hadn’t spoken to her since that day, but on January 8, she received text messages that indicated several men were holding Iserhoff against her will. The messages also indicated that the 18-year-old woman had been beaten by the group of men. Her mother fears that she has been forced into a prostitution ring.

“I don’t want her to be transferred somewhere. I don’t know if this is human trafficking. That’s what I’m afraid of deep down. I’m afraid that if she gets raped and get killed and they find her body like that, but I don’t want to think like that. I want to be positive.”

MSN News Canada confirms that police share fears that the woman may have been kidnapped or otherwise met foul play. The report also shares that the missing woman may have been taken to Kitchener, Ontario by the men who could be holding her captive.
