Operation Spring Cleaning

Apr 3rd, 2026

A focused three-month operation was conducted between January 2026 and April 2026 to aggressively target prostitution, sexual-deviate activity, and the criminal networks that enable sex trafficking in our community.

Investigators concentrated on identifying and apprehending predators who exploit vulnerable individuals, while simultaneously disrupting locations known for drug sales and related violent offenses. Investigators also intervened with individuals involved in prostitution and escorting to ensure their safety from exploitation and harm.

The operation emphasized proactive enforcement, undercover initiatives, and coordinated intelligence-gathering to stop traffickers, reduce assaults, and hold offenders accountable. This sustained effort reflects our commitment to protecting victims, restoring safety, and preventing further harm across the city.
