"In just the last three days, Operation Cross Country broke up prostitution rings in 57 cities, including arrests in Toledo and Perrysburg Township. Officials say truck stops, casinos and the internet are hubs for this type of criminal activity. 
 
 Kevin Perkins acting Executive Assistant Director of the FBI said, "Over the past 72 hours the FBI and its state and local law enforcement partners conducted 104 arrests and rescued 79 children who were being held against their will and conducting child prostitution."
"
Keep up the good work...Kudos to all of the officers involved for making such a positive difference in the lives of so many children.

Still searching for a list of names and some pictures...one would think if the folks that were holding dog fights on IdaMaybee Rd had there pics public,  these sorry arse sob's, that take advantage of kids and prey on them then abuse them to make easy money sure as heck should have there mugshots posted on every paper and internet news site in the United States...oh yeah wait...we can't infringe on their rights.  This frosts my cupcakes!  Almost as much as Mipsor pics not being available for over three years.

They don't even tell how many from where...   you could search the local bookings for Lucas County - as those post pictures and the crimes if it was in Lucas County.  They post a PDF file - not sure if daily or weekly.

Thank you Professor H,
I just don't get it.   Why is it that our society seems to protect these nasty, worthless pieces of (insert expletive).  Why can't we place more importance on the children in this country than on our family members with fur, feathers or fins?
I get it that animal rights are very important and animal cruelty is serious too but come on.

It could be in some cases they were being exploited by a family member, so, if they were to release the perpetrators name, they would be indirectly giving out the name of the victim as well.

Just speculation of course.

Fluffy Bunnies I appreciate you offering that speculation.  You may be right for sure on why they don't for some of them.  Many states do list in DruSjodin if sexual crime was incest which would implicate some member of the family as being the victim.

Parents when you talk to your children about "stranger danger" please include a conversation on how these scumbags can manipulate them by offering them something the parents won't allow them to have-like electronics, cell phones, laptops etc. threatening to harm the other family members if they don't cooperate...it has escalated far beyond "help me find my puppy". 

And to the youth that may be reading this, if it sounds too good to be true it usually has strings attached.  Your parents are doing their job by having rules for you to follow etc. it is their resposibility to make sure you grow up to be a productive member of society.  Under most circumstances whether you believe it or not, ultimately they have your best interest at heart, you are part of them.  If someone tells you they are going to harm your family if you don't cooperate...tell someone -your parents will have your back and their own, these are scare tactics.  Do not be afraid that your family will think less of you-they love you unconditionally and will offer support and just be thankful you are safe.
