Many of them were graduates of the childrens homes where they had been taught depravity from childhood: their "tutors" would first make prostitutes out of them and then would set them up at such jobs where these girls could not even earn enough for bread. So they had either to sell their body or to steal from work. Both ways inevitably resulted in imprisonment. Beside these women. who were after all convicted for criminal acts. I have met women who had been sentenced to various camp terms for belief in God or for their participation in the Ukrainian or other national movements. or. as well as myself. for the desire to emigrate to Israel. For instance. Galya Doroshenko of Odessa.
