Mother of missing Washington teen says she is being trafficked in Los Angeles 

The mother of a 15-year-old girl from Washington tells affiliate KTLA that her daughter is missing, and she believes the young girl is being trafficked in Los Angeles.  

Trinity Ann Landsiedel went missing from Vancouver, Washington – located in the southern part of the state just north of Portland, Oregon – on June 1, a missing person bulletin distributed by The AWARE Foundation indicates.

The flyer states that family members told the foundation that Trinity and another girl were taken by an adult man against their will to Los Angeles. The name and age of the other girl were not available.

According to the flyer, both girls were seen in L.A. on June 12; however, the exact location within the city was not known.

No information surrounding the identity or any characteristics of their alleged abductor were immediately known either.

Trinity is described as standing 5 feet, 4 inches tall and weighing 140 pounds. She has red and black hair. Her family is concerned for her safety and well-being and is asking for the public’s help in locating her as well as the other girl.

Anyone with information on Trinity’s and/or the other girl’s whereabouts is urged to call the Vancouver, Washington Police Department: 360-487-7400. 

In case of an emergency, dial 911. 

A 2022 article published by local outlet The Columbian indicates that in October of that year, Trinity went missing, although she was found shortly after.

The circumstances behind the 2022 disappearance and where she was located weren’t disclosed.
