510 Arrested In Huge California Pedophile Ring Bust
Over
500 suspects were arrested and 56 people rescued in a huge California
human-trafficking and pedophile ring crackdown.
The
Los Angeles County Regional Human Trafficking Task Forces confirmed
the arrests on Tuesday during the three-day sweep named ‘Operation
Reclaim and Rebuild.’
ABC reports: During
the operation, which took place between Jan. 25 and 27, the task
force said 45 adults and 11 girls were rescued.
Among
the 510 suspects arrested, 30 are suspected traffickers and 178 are
alleged “johns.”
The
task force is housed by the L.A. County Sheriff’s Department and is
a collaboration of more than 85 federal, state, county and local law
enforcement and nonprofit community organizations.
Speaking
at a Tuesday press conference, Los Angeles County Sheriff Jim
McDonnell gave details surrounding some of the arrests.
“The
message we hope to send to the traffickers is don’t do business in
Los Angeles County or the state of California because we will find
you and prosecute you to the fullest extent of the law,” he said.
In
one very disturbing incident in Milpitas, California, a man dressed
in full police uniform – including a side arm – was arrested on
felony charges after he sexually assaulted a human-trafficking
victim, McDonnell said. The suspect was found to be already on felony
probation and wanted by police for additional, similar crimes.
The
sheriff said the operation targeted those who use the internet to
exploit victims. In one such instance, McDonnell said an undercover
deputy posing as a young female on social media was contacted by a
suspect, who recruited her to work for him in the commercial sex
trade.
After
arranging a meeting, the pimp drove from Riverside County to meet
with his victim. He demanded $500 from the victim for him to manage
her. The suspect would collect the money from the customers and give
the victim whatever he decided she needed. McDonnell said the suspect
was arrested by task force detectives and found to be in possession
of a stolen .357 Magnum handgun.
The
task force was established in November 2015 and since that time, 948
suspects have been arrested in connection to human trafficking.
The
Los Angeles-based nonprofit Coalition to Abolish Slavery and
Trafficking is providing help, including shelter and food, to the
victims rescued during the operation.

My comments: California is a place where Sexual Perversion flourishes--Where the Demonic influence of Hollywood is rampant. It is a State give over to godless, Socialist, Secular Humanism.
