This is the third extensive commercial sex sting operation in North Texas suburbs in recent months.
In addition to the Denton County Sheriff’s Office, the Department of Homeland Security Investigations, Texas Department of Public Safety, Tarrant County Sheriff’s Office, Texas Attorney General’s Office and Lewisville Police Department participated in the sting.
Calling prostitution a scourge, Denton County Sheriff Tracy Murphree said in a news release the department will continue to run these operations. “Human trafficking is a plague in this country and it’s painfully obvious that Denton County is not immune,” Murphree said. “Arresting those that seek out these victims for self-gratification is one of the many ways we attack this problem.”.
