Assistant Special Agent in Charge Margie Quin said during the news
conference that they were overwhelmed and disturbed by the amount of
responses the false ads received. Quin said that on the first day of the
operation Tuesday afternoon, agents received more than 216 responses in
just seven hours.
“Even with as many of these operations that we
have conducted across the state, it’s still shocking that half of the
men responding to these ads wanted to pay to have sex with a minor,”
Quin said. “We’re working toward helping victims of trafficking and
taking these predators off the streets.”
