WINTER HAVEN, Fla. The Polk County Sheriff's Office nabbed 124 people in what's being described as a six-day undercover investigation to combat prostitution, human trafficking and child sex predators.

Dubbed "Operation Santa's Naughty List," the people arrested face everything from prostitution charges and drug counts to accusations of trying to meet children for sex.

The sheriff's office worked with the State Attorney's Office, local police and anti-human trafficking groups as part of the sting operation.

"The primary purpose for these operations is to identify victims of human trafficking and those who prey on the victims, as well as the deviant child predators who stalk children online," Sheriff Grady Judd wrote in an email.

Law enforcement said they used online ads to arrange meetings between undercover detectives and people accused of crimes. The undercover location was in Polk County.

Detectives say there were seven women who came to the undercover location to "commit prostitution. " However, the sheriff's office said these woman may have been trafficked.

Two of the women were taken to shelters and connected with anti-trafficking support and resources. The sheriff's office said each person accused of prostitution was given immediate access to anti-trafficking organizations.

Five men were accused of traveling to the location to sexually harm a child. Two other men who did not go to the location were arrested after detectives say they solicited who they thought were children online.

In total, 53 people were charged with prostitution, 46 were accused of seeking the services of a prostitute and seven men were accused of preying on children.

Must be a budget thing.

The big push to lean on the spas was because a neighborhood group made waves about the ones on Kennedy and a. Certain local channel news crusader saw a chance for ratings.

Street walkers supporting a habit leads to drug dealing and that attracts other addicts who commit property crime. That isn't a problem with the spas. Eventually, the council saw this so we have what we got just like the six foot rule. Ultimately, the goal is to mollify the complainers by moving the offending spas out of sight.

[QUOTE=TampaMonger;4618480]I originally sent this as a PM to someone who'd asked about it. I'm reposting it here with some edits as a public service announcement. The message: Don't be afraid to go to the spas. The odds that the cops have hidden cameras watching you is extremely remote.

I used to live on long island and Suffolk County PD would get them on fire code violation and on unlicensed massages. If the didn't work, they harass customers. Since they have no evidence of goes inside, nothing. So since late 80's, AMP in Suffolk come and go. No stopping them whether they are illegal immigrants or not. Service has dropped to to cop priority on these places on quality of life (OH cops make 6 figure salary w / o over time after 5 years. So boys, assuming some cops are here, pay off politicians, high end law enforcement officer to know ehrn bust coming, clean up the act, and nada. Whether it is mafia, cops, criminals, politicians, or all of them, people definitely making extra to what we pay therm for as tax payers. WE could easily out that out on the dark web and some forensic accounting. It beat a cop, think like them, and vice versa. It is a game of corruption, but we all turn a blind eye. When election comrd in shoe do elected snake oilmen selling their oils to which the sheep will buy, same ole same ole.

2 cases confirmed, one in Hillsborough and the other in Mantee. Sandra will not take on new clients for this reasons until the powers that be have a handle on this virus. Fear is setting in for some people as it is.

It can go both ways. Not only the providers being worried about the mongers, but mongers being worried about the providers. I was scheduled to see a hottie this Thursday, but I wondered if she might have second thoughts. Maybe I might have second thoughts too. What are the long term effects? Less providers. Less mongers. Higher prices. Lower prices. More screening?

I do want to see Sandra, but money is tight and jerking off is cheaper.

They have no choice. On the other hand, if things get bad, most mongers will stay away since for us this is just a hobby. This means a lot fewer mongers chasing roughly the same number of girls, making competition fierce.

Econ 101 says that prices will drop, just like they did during the financial crisis in 2008, when it was a pussy smorgasbord if you had the funds. (I shot my nut sauce into more pussies and down more throats in that year than in any other before or since).

I see opportunities, assuming I don't drop dead.

You are not going to die. I hope you are dead accurate about the pussy though.

I've already pretty much decided to hibernate for a while, and I'm talking about more than just my mongering, but to each his own. Everyone's got an angle.

There are some of you that feel safe by saying is all out of proportion then by all means go have sex a known victim / escort, I will pay for it. All about choice.

I was wondering, are any of you mongers slowing down? I am usually 2-3 visits every 2 weeks or so. I haven't been keeping up the pace since this thing started. I have a few regulars (Sandra, Crystal, Lesley) that I see often but this thing started, I haven't been out mongering for a couple weeks now. I don't know which will get me first, horniness or Corona. Anyone facing the same dilemma?

I bet the girls are hurting for business too. I saw a post about strip clubs and the dancers looking for work. If there are deals to be had, I may crack under the pressure. LOL.

Stay safe.
