How I Became a Victim of Human Trafficking
I Edward L Danzer DBA 6K Products, a sole proprietorship, started this website to provide information about being a victim of human trafficking and to help manage the fear and anger when being victimizes for over 2-1/2 years. The form of human trafficking I have been dealing with is what is call involuntary servitude and or Peonage. This was action started by Fairway Collections and a member of the Washington State Bar Association when they required me to provide financial information for a wage garnishment on an employee without compensation or following 15 USC 1692. On April 26, 2018 Lewis County District Court Judge RW Buzzard ordered me to pay Fairway Collections, LLC. $385.99 for a debt my employee did not know they owed and was not provided any information about the debt.
If you navigate beyond this page this information is based on my interpretation of the laws. I am not an attorney so do not use this information as a basis for your personal legal decisions. If you read most of the information and think you have been victimized by a debt collector or a member of the Washington State Bar Association, I suggest you call 911 and file a complaint. Do not expect a good response as this type of debt collection abuse has been going on for many years.
My intensions are to educate people about injustices that are being forced on individuals by a socialistic group of individuals that seem to be above the law. Please do not become angry and do something you will regret when you read this information, instead, call 911, contact government agencies and file complaints. Not that this will do any good but you have to try the non-violent way first so a record of your actuations and frustrations are documented before you use physical force. Please learn from my mistakes! So far it has cost me over $80,000.00 and over 100 hours of my time to deal with this injustice.
If you disagree with my statements published here these are my opinions so please do not contact me as I’m only expressing my First Amendment right to free speech. My small business consumes between 60 and 70 hours per week of my time so please respect my privacy and allow me to serve my customers by only contacting me through this website and do not expect quick response.

How it started
I received a Cover Letter with an Application for Writ of Garnishment, Writ of Garnishment for Continuing Lien on Earnings and First Answer to Writ of Garnishment for Continuing Lien on Earnings all Case No.: 12-C1555. If you read Page 4, I’m being COMMANDED to answer the Writ without compensation. On Page 5 if I fail to answer as COMMANDED I become liable for the debt alleged.
If you read the laws posted it seems this command forces me to work for free and enter into a contract through the First Answer to Writ of Garnishment for Continuing Lien on Earnings under the penalty of perjury
What happened next
I contacted Fairway Collections LLC. by phone and in writing to explain that I would not complete the Garnishment as sent as it violated my 13th Amendments rights.
The hearing
I received a Notice of Hearing setting April 26, 2018 at 9:30 AM when the MOTION AND ORDER FOR DEFAULT AGAINST GARNISHEE DEFENDANT would happen. When you read the transcript of court room 4 it becomes clear I should not be there. The Judges order was devastating to me.
