Authorities in Spring, Texas fear that a teen girl who was reported missing early last year, may be the victim of a sex trafficking ring.

Kristen Galvan was reported missing from her grandmother’s home on January 2nd, 2020.

Galvan’s grandmother says

“Before Kristen was taken one year, three months and 22 days ago, she was a sweet teenager,” her mother said. ” She was a good student, in JROTC and on the drill team. She lightened any room she entered. It’s scary to think that Kristen was lured out of our home by new friendships full of empty promises and sold into the dark world of child sex trafficking.”

Since Galvan’s disappearance, authorities have reported that her photo has appeared on several websites known for prostitution. Officials also believe that her life may be in imminent danger:

“Because Kristen is a possible victim of human trafficking, this means her life could be in danger,” FBI Special Agent Bethany Morris said. ” Kristen will be 17-years- old on April 23, 2021. Kristen’s family and friends miss her terribly. If you have any information related to her whereabouts, please contact NCMEC at 1-800-THE-LOST and help bring Kristen home.”
