According to information obtained from the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department, these arrests are part of Operation Reclaim and Rebuild. It is an annual operation that covers large areas of the nation. The department revealed that the sting “ran for four consecutive days before concluding on January 28, 2021.”

“It’s a big orchestration, to execute a sting or a bust, like what we’ve just seen in California, and it takes months and months of planning and funding,” Booyens said. “And that’s why it’s very important for both local and federal, local, state, and federal government to support the fight against sex trafficking, because you cannot do it on your own.”

These operations should have standing in court and this requires a different approach. The judicial system works with the police in order to shut down these ill practices.

Booyens adds that before Trump “we’ve never had an office in the White House designated and dedicated to fighting sex trafficking. No former president in the history of this country has used his or her platform to denounce the exploitation of children and then appropriate funding. So we’ve seen an incredible impact over the years, over the last four years, particularly towards the support for law enforcement.”

Regular police officers are not trained to take part in sting operations. The process requires special training, resources and effort.

“We’ve seen a tremendous rise in the apprehension, the arrest of perpetrators and rescue of victims under the Trump administration, no question about it,” Booyens said. “In these cases that you’re seeing now such as California, and you’ll see some others coming out now, they’ve been 9, 10 months in the making under the Trump administration—in that mechanism of funding law enforcement appropriately, having special task forces.”

“Whether those policies and systems that were put in place, whether they will remain or not, we don’t know,” said Booyens.

“But under the Trump administration, we saw a massive and also a morale lift. There was a morale lift within the nonprofits, our organization and the other 170 that we’re connected with, there was a general morale boost. We have support from the White House now. We actually now can see law enforcement departments talk to one another.’”

The Trump administration was the first to support this type of interdepartmental communication.

“For instance, when a child is tracked in let’s say, Dallas, Texas, that pimp or predator doesn’t keep that child in Dallas, Texas.” Booyens said. “Now let’s say we find her in Nevada. You now are asking the Dallas Police Department to talk to the Nevada police department and that historically has not happened.

“We saw that kind of an inter-department communication line be open because of the result of Ivanka Trump, President Trump, and then, of course, the other people in that administration who made trafficking a focus.”

Our society struggles with several threats at the moment. Some people promote this problem and kids spend too much time at home.

“There is a large sector of our society, let’s just be real, that don’t see a problem with sexualizing children, with indoctrinating children in kindergarten with certain conditions and mindsets about sex and consent,” Booyens said.

“We’ve got multiple states in this country at the moment trying to lower their age of consent to 14, some have lowered it to 16. … Laws in those states are now in direct contradiction to statutory rape or in direct contradiction to the anti-sex-trafficking law in that state which says a child 17 and under is a victim.”

Parents and educators have to teach children how to recognize predators. We should get involved in their online activities. Predators are everywhere.
