This story was a follow-up to a murder we covered two years ago.  The victim was a prostitute whose pimp was convicted.  Now, her mother is suing the motel where it happened.  That's possible thanks to a law that allows places where sex trafficking occurs to be held accountable in civil court.  The victim's mother agreed to speak with me about the lawsuit.  She was clearly emotional.. But wanted her story to be told.  People behind the law and lawsuits like this hope they help curb the sex trafficking issue that's such a scourge on Houston and the surrounding area.
