Acknowledgments

This text is the result of the collective labor and critique-al solidarity of others who have remained committed to the specific case discussed within and the struggle to end sexist violence and human exploitation in general. For their uncompromising commitment to social emancipation and many of the ideas and arguments formulated in this text, I am indebted to the Marxist Collective of New York at Syracuse University, specifically Brian Ganter, Adam Katz, Mark Redding, Amrohini J. Sahay, and Stephen Tumino. I am also indebted to my attorney Bonnie Strunk for her free labor in assisting me with this case. For other crucial support at the time of this specific case I am indebted to Scott Jones and Jennifer Cronin.
