Reached out to Survivors Ink re: tattoos. SI "exists to raise awareness and to empower human trafficking victims by breaking the psychological chains of enslavement through beautifying, removing or covering their physical scars, markings and brandings that are constant reminders of a violent past."
They came over to this link and had a look at the tatts, responding "It is possible it is a coverup of a trafficking tattoo, but as most brands do not follow a theme (rather. they carry unique meanings to the carrier - usually something that is personal between the victim and their trafficker), there really is no telling. The stars also may carry different meanings as some are attributed to different groups/gangs. However, we do not have a record of a tattoo recipient in NJ with that brand."
So no answers there, but what an awesome organisation, hey?!
