More than 100 child sex trafficking victims rescued across the U.S. in month-long FBI operation, authorities say.
More than 100 child sex trafficking victims were rescued across the U.S. thanks to a month-long FBI operation, authorities said.
"The FBI is fiercely focused on recovering child victims and arresting the sex traffickers who exploit them," FBI Director Christopher Wray said in a statement."Through operations like this, the FBI helps child victims escape the abusive life of sex trafficking.” "We are here to rescue children, and we are here to build good cases against traffickers," said Jeanette Milazzo, a special agent who led one of the Houston Field Office’s task force operations in early July."If we have developed enough rapport with the victim, we build a case against their trafficker and hopefully charge them in federal court."
