Earlier this month, Jacksonville Sheriff's Office (JSO) Vice Unit detectives arrested 25 suspects in a three-day operation known as Operation Naughty List. The operation targeted those willing to pay for sexual favors using undercover detectives as decoys.
Operations like this are vital to JSO’s mission of eliminating human trafficking. Prostitution is fueled by human trafficking and exploitation. When detectives make arrests in solicitation cases, it cuts down on the demand.
To report suspicious activity believed to be related to prostitution, please call the police at 904.630.0500. Individuals can also reach out to the 24/7
National Human Trafficking Hotline at 1.888.373.7888, texting 233733, or using the online chat feature on
HumanTraffickingHotline.org.
