JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Eighteen men were arrested over three days as part of Operation Back to School, an undercover sting aimed at people trying to pay for sex.

Vice Unit detectives led the operation, monitoring websites known for solicitation and prostitution activity. When suspects arranged meetings and arrived at a local hotel expecting a sexual encounter, undercover detectives were waiting for them.
Investigators say stings like Operation Back to School are about more than just arrests — they are designed to reduce demand for prostitution, which authorities say is directly linked to human trafficking and exploitation.

“Operations like this lower the demand for prostitution,” JSO said. “Prostitution fuels human trafficking and exploitation. When we reduce the demand, we help reduce human trafficking.”

Guess we'll overlook the police brutality because rights don't matter when consensual sex is being policed :angel:

I don't think I have ever read a report that states arresting common johns in a sting operation has ever reduced the trafficking of females.

But if it helps, fine.

If not, they just ruined the lives of 18 men all because they just wanted some easy-to-obtain pussy.

@Cripple I would say arrest the women but if they’re being trafficked then they are victims in a way

@Lemmiwinks
But in these stings, the women are female cops.

This wasn't some over-the-internet cops acting like 13 year old girls.'
This was cops dressing like hookers and luring men into a trap.

No female was saved from being trafficked by any of these sting operations.
