Chp 11: Body Brokering Video

This video features a powerful news segment sharing one person’s real-life experience of being caught in the Florida Shuffle. A corrupt cycle of body brokering that preys on people in active addiction for profit.

If you’re new to this term, here’s what it means:
📍 Body brokering is when treatment centers or recruiters get paid to send patients with good insurance into rehab, often repeatedly, with little regard for actual healing.
📍 These brokers often offer flights, cash, drugs, or hotel stays to lure people in, and relapse becomes part of the business model.
📍 Florida became ground zero, but this is happening across the country.

Why this video matters:
Families deserve to know the truth about the addiction treatment industry because what looks like help can sometimes do more harm than good.

Watch this clip. Share it. And start asking harder questions before trusting any facility with your loved one’s life.
