Paul Hutchinson is an entrepreneur, former fund manager and undercover operative known for his role in rescuing trafficked children depicted in the film the Sound of Freedom. Transitioned from a career in real estate asset management to dismantling some of the world’s largest child sex trafficking rings.
The first time, he rented an private island to rescue around 100 children. Very dangerous, very traumatic, he saw the minor children as they were delivered ("all virgins"). Did 70 rescue missions until it became too much, decided to public instead (FOUR MONTHS AGO).
