The inside of the room looked like it was a large barracks mixed with a prison. There were a dozen bunk beds in the center of the room, each had two children chained to them. There were no tables or chairs the children could get to, they were confined to their bunks and nothing else.
There were six men and four women in the room with the children. Four of the men seemed to be standing guard. The other two men and all four women were wearing black collars and cuffs and seemed to be terrified.
The moment we entered the room, the six people wearing cuffs ran to the children to protect them, each of them hugging onto four children at a time.
"Stay calm children." One man soothed his group.
"Please, don't harm the children." A woman begged as the children cried around her.
"We're not here to hurt them." I assured them all. "We're here to save them." I saw hope flood the eyes of the six people protecting the children.
