You say the police cannot help?
Have you contacted them?
If so, what did you say and how did they reply?
My experience is that police have little regard for pimps and would love a reason to get them off the streets. If you explain that he may threaten you, they should offer some way of protecting you. If not, then they are not fulfilling their duty to "protect and serve."
If that is the case, then you need to see a lawyer and possibly a local or even national TV news station. Explain your predicament, the steps you've taken to fix it and what help or lack thereof you've received.
Public officials take notice when they know the media is watching them. They will either straighten up or get their butts chewed out by superiors.
You have to be resolute in your decision to change your lifestyle. Once you have made up your mind, determine how to protect yourself from the pimp. make sure you do everything legally.
Make sure that your family knows the truth about the situation too. That way they can help you if you need it. It would be sad if they took you back in and a crazed pimp decided to commit a crime against them as well as you. Together, a family is much stronger. Honesty will help promote trust. It sounds as if you need some trustworthy people right now.
Be careful!
Cover your A.
Stay legit and clean.
Notify police, lawyers and media contacts of your intentions or any events that might affect your situation.
Stay alert and wary.
And if it comes down to it, be prepared to protect yourself with force. You have to decide who is more valuable to this world; ...you, ...or the pimp.

I would like to add here after reviewing some of the other answers that police can do squat til they have serious evidence of beating and then it takes a long time before the guy is even hauled in the guy will get all the chances he needs to beet her up again , anyone with real experience and or knowledge in this matter will agree that contacting the police wont suffice to protect someone who admits being a prostitude for which they have no respect anyway and might have an arrest record or a story of drug abuse, the best bet is to disappear for a long time and live very far away from wherever it is that person is now .

Do you have anyone at home who can help protect you? Your dad? Your brother? Uncles? Grandfather?
What you need to do is make a plan before you act - you need to figure out the longest period of time you go without seeing him and that'll be your chance to go. Little by little start saving your money up to get you home, or call home and see if your dad or brother or mom or someone can meet you somewhere and pick you up. Tell them of your situation so they'll be aware of it and make their own decision about coming to get you. Don't be ashamed. You're not the only person who has gotten into a bad situation like this.
The police CAN help, the question is, do they want to? Sometimes the police over look things when they shouldn't. Go to the police again and tell them that you're really afraid of this man and you want to leave, they should be there to protect you while you get your things and go.
If this is a serious question, I commend you for wanting to get out. There ARE ways. Maybe you should call a lawyer or abuse hotline to see if you can find some help.
Also, maybe if you're scared enough... you might want to look into buying some form or protection. Mace, a gun, a knife, something. Don't be afraid to use it if he comes at you, it's self defense.

You could run, but if you're cut off from any source of income and avoiding someone that could be hard.
Like these other people say: a church is a good idea
Not only will they help you, but its a crowded place.
If 50 people here a cry for help, they're bound to do something about it.
I don't know this guy, how controlling he may be or any other features to say for sure, so if you thought it was truly necesary...
you could say some crazy guy atacked one of your friends, then he was threatening you with something.
Best if you make sure its something he has.
If he has a gun, thats reasonable concern and easy to believe he used it to threaten you. Any kind of weapon or tool.
Then describe him so they get a sketch out.
An anonymous tip that there's a lot of banging noises like a fight in whatever location he's doing this from.
It's hard to tell a cop that your innocent when they can see the evidence.

Call your parents, that is the first step, from a pay phone so he will never know. Why can't the police help if he hits you , have him locked up & haul butte out of there. Go to the Department of Human Resources they used to have a program where they would get you a bus ticket home. I looked up some places online. Try some of these if you can.

That's about all I could find you can probably find stuff in your area better than we can, just look & erase your history.

You will have to make a clean break and get as far away as possible.
A church might be able to help you or refer you to someone who can help. If you have money buy a bus ticket to as far away as you can go and take what you can with you. Then look for people who will help you get back home.
The pimp will not want to lose you. You need to lose him. Good luck and God bless.
Churches, or the Salvation Army can probably give you the most help. Don't be afraid to ask, and don't worry about being a sinner. We're all sinners.

I don't know what possessions you have that mean more than your life, but I would walk away and go to the nearest transportation and go. You have to use your head and save some money, Plane tickets cost, but bus is cheap, train not to bad, you make up your mind, If you want away, you will get it done, if not you will not be beautiful for to many more years, if you are even alive.

I am 32 years old, and I am trying to do the exact same thing. I ended up with him 3 years ago, when I had nowhere to go and was running from a abusive relationship. I quit "working" when I found out I was pregnant, and gave my life back to God. My son is 3 months old and I really want to leave , he has been threatening to hurt me when we argue. And when I told him that I wanted to leave and that I wAs taking our son with me, he told me he would make me disappear if I tried. So for a while I stopped trying to leave out of fear . I want a normal safe life for my son and me. I am isolated. I have no money, and no friends. I am scared because once I leave he will come looking for me and our son. And I don't want to disappear

There is an organization called Children of the night. I'm sure that if they can't help you, they can put in you in touch with someone that can. Kudos to you for taking this step, I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

You need to just go. Someone needs to put the fear of God into your pimp so he'll leave you alone. The police can help if you let them.
