Within the last past three days the FBI has rescued 69 children and arrested 99 pimps that have been involved with human trafficking. The 99 suspected pimps cover 40 cities across 30 states. According to the FBI the highest group of prostitutes was found in Seattle. Many of the pimps preyed on kids that were young, mostly 12-17, and could be classified as naive or uniformed about child trafficking. Many of the kids operate out of fear of the violence the pimp will conduct. The FBI looks to continue the success of Operation Cross Country V, as human trafficking continues to be a top priority.
