Almost no details on main page, but Denver's press release has the largest breakdown of minor + "pimp" arrests https://www.fbi.gov/denver/press-releases/2015/denver-task-force-recovers-most-children-from-trafficking-in-nationwide-sting …
@sunshinessp411 putting NIBRS on hold, rewriting queries to see effect of raids on 18-19 y.o. ads + ad fraction. let you know if interesting

@aspasia_project i don't object to finding 15 or 14 yr olds advertising to adult men who think they are of age, & stopping that btw
-
@aspasia_project i know they consider anyone who helps any SWer as a pimp, & charge them as such, including other SWers.
-
@sunshinessp411 yeah--check@emikoyama's past coverage (eg: http://eminism.org/blog/entry/429 ) for breakdown of data. it's bad. :( -
@aspasia_project
@emikoyama you can see it in their reports, published by media.. someone's sister was charged as pimp for driving her -
@aspasia_project
@emikoyama they are trying to do that here as well, but of course can't arrest SWers *operation northernlights* -
@aspasia_project
@emikoyama fake book appts posing as client, then 3, 4 or more show up at her door 'asking' to be let inside to 'help' -
@sunshinessp411@emikoyama oh I heard about those & did some brief, superficial analysis--are those ongoing? -
@aspasia_project
@emikoyama as recently as this week, apparently. I don't know if they have improved who they target (jan/oct i think) - 1 more reply

@aspasia_project yes, given that underagers will advertise the minimum age on the ad site: 18, more likely to find 'victims' with 18 age ads
-
@aspasia_project Is Denver/Detroit doing this & Atlanta or whoever not doing that? is one PD lazier than another or is it just FBI lazy?
-
@sunshinessp411 it's all FBI-orchestrated, to some extent, but I think local PDs/Sheriffs running actual stings. 1/ -
@sunshinessp411 inclined to guess that lack of info attempt to craft "rescue" message from what are practically broad ant-SW stings 2/ -
@aspasia_project yes, exactly, more 'pimps' is more rescue, more arrested who say they are victims = lesser or no charges for SWers too
