A doctor, a pharmacist, a pharmaceutical salesman and a retired IRS agent were just a few of the individuals arrested in a weekend sting by the Polk County Sheriff’s Office targeting alleged online ads for prostitution.
Police claim the 47 people arrested responded to Internet advertisements for prostitution. Most were living in or visiting Polk County when they were arrested.
This undercover sting combined with a previous bust conducted Feb. 23 and 24 netted a total of 66 people charged with prostitution-related crimes by Polk deputies within about two weeks.
Due to undercover sting operations throughout the state of Florida, innocent individuals with no previous criminal record may find themselves accused and placed under arrest for solicitation for prostitution at any given moment. Many of these arrests boil down to being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Unfortunately for those accused of a prostitution-related offense, public policy and pressure has commanded that those convicted of any crime related to prostitution be subject to harsh penalties. Should you find yourself the target of an undercover investigation for prostitution, you need to contact a Florida Sex Crime Attorney as soon as possible.
