Detectives pose as young girls to lure men into meet-ups. ‘It’s just taken off exponentially,’ a detective said.
Clint Walton sounded crestfallen.
Nevertheless, Walton said it was a victory. The “breakup” meant there was one less man coming in to San Bernardino to sexually assault a child. The San Bernardino Police Department is conducting an online sting in July in which officers pose as children in an attempt to arrest predators and become guardians for children in San Bernardino on Friday, July 14, 2023. “We’d consider it a success if we got zero,” Walton said. “To start spreading this awareness and trying to go after these guys who were regularly victimizing kids, I think it was a huge success.
The problem worsened during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic when minors had to spend more time at home and online, Walton said.
