Trisha Baptie's life story reads like the template of many who end up in Vancouver's sex trade -- addiction, foster care, sexual abuse and the eventual slide from the higher end hooker strolls into the Downtown Eastside.
At 18, she was on "the whore tour," making the resort round of Kamloops, Kelowna, Penticton and Vernon before landing back in Vancouver.
