Nationwide Human Trafficking Stings Ensnare Multiple Cops--84 Kids as Young as 3 Months Freed

• http://thefreethoughtproject.com, By Matt Agorist

Multiple undercover sting operations across the United States were carried out this month targeting adult and child sex trafficking. The results of many of these stings netted hundreds of arrests—including doctors, pharmacists, high-level military officers, and law enforcement officers. Dozens of children were also rescued — including one as young as three months old.

"That's the most we have ever arrested in the history of the sheriff's office," Sheriff Grady Judd said of his undercover operation in Polk County, Florida.

The sheriff is referring to the 277 people rounded up in "Operation No Tricks, No Treats" which started last Tuesday and ran through Monday.

According to the sheriff's office, as reported by WFLA, 51 of the arrests were related to those who advertise as prostitutes online and 209 of the arrests were those who solicited undercover detectives posing as prostitutes. Seventeen arrests were made for other offenses.
