Raids in more than 70 cities across the United States have resulted in the arrest of 150 "pimps" and other individuals and the rescue of 105 sexually exploited children, the FBI said.
"It was the FBI’s largest action to date focusing on the recovery of sexually exploited children, and took law enforcement agencies to streets, motels, casinos and social media platforms", Ronald Hosko, assistant director of the FBI's criminal investigative division, said on Monday.
- The youngest child was 13 years old, the agency said. Criminal charges against the 150 will include human trafficking, authorities said.
