From CBN. An Ohio human trafficking task force recently arrested and charged 160 people, including an elementary school teacher, a college professor, and a pair of U.S. Air Force members, for attempting to buy sex, the state’s top prosecutor announced earlier this week.

Pray for your fellow intercessor.

 

A week-long sting dubbed “Operation Buyer’s Remorse” concluded with the arrest of 149 “johns” seeking to buy sex who were subsequently arrested and charged with engaging in prostitution.

Two others were arrested for allegedly seeking to have sex with minors and another six were arrested for promoting prostitution. The rest are in jail for illegally possessing narcotics and firearms or because there were outstanding warrants against them, the state’s attorney general reported.

The coordinated sting led by Attorney General Dave Yost’s Ohio Organized Crime Investigations Commission (OOCIC) was a collaborative effort between eight human trafficking and major crimes task forces. …

More than 100 human trafficking survivors were also identified and received help from the state’s health care and social service organizations.

“Operation Buyer’s Remorse”  took place from Sept. 25 to Sept. 30 in every corner of the state, including in and around Columbus, Cleveland, Toledo, Akron, Youngstown, Marietta, and Portsmouth.

Those arrested came from all backgrounds, including EMTs, nurses, educators, retirees, former law enforcement officers, delivery drivers, and U.S. Air Force members. The youngest “John” arrested was 17 and the oldest was 84. …

In addition to the 160 arrests, search warrants were conducted at 11 massage parlors suspected of human trafficking activities as part of ongoing, long-term investigations. …

Share this answered prayer with your friends and family!

How many children were rescued from these purpatrators? I did not read anything about how many were found and given help. I’m glad they arrested those attempting to buy sex. Yet, finding the children is the most important issue for their sakes. Father God, we need your help in seeking those who are being held and used for evil purposes. Thank you for those catching the ones looking for opportunity to hurt children, but we ask that there be extensive help in finding the major offenders holding and using our precious children. Help, Lord. We need your eyes and ears. Make us aware so we can help the innocent. In Jesus Name we ask.

I am grateful to see this uptick in arrests around our nation. Let’s faithfully pray it continues. I would ask people to specifically pray for arrests, conviction, rescue, etc. to take place in the porn industry, which is a large predator & consumer of underage girls & boys, young adults, mature adults, etc. The industry has a very large spectrum of people they “consume”, both for their productions & audience. Please pray that God would supernaturally topple their walls of defense as vast amounts of people are being affected by this in every walk of life. There are people in gov’t who are being paid big $$$ to protect the industry – pray that God will expose, via a money trail, who they are.

PRAISE GOD for David Yost!! He’s doing the job we Ohioans elected him to do! Praise God for the physical deliverance for the persons being trafficked. May Holy Spirit comfort them.

Oh God thank you, thank you for this sting that took place in Ohio, to rid it of this horrific sinful act against our children. Please save the children all over our country in every state. And help the perpetrators to receive your forgiveness. In Jesus’ name.

Thank you Lord exposing all hidden agendas in this swamp of injustice.

May the called rise in courage to rescue those trapped and release captives for repentance and salvations, in Jesus’ name.

Guard and protect every investigation. May discernment be released to your people in every day observations as you guide us to any actions needed, in Jesus’ name.
